Disappointing.

I've always wanted to see this and finally got around to it. While Cage and Shue were good, the film is disjointed. It's like they didn't know if they wanted to film it documentary style or not. The editing was all over the place, especially in the first 15 minutes. And the constant jazz score made the film seem more boring than it should have.

I love this movie. But I would watch nic cage watching paint dry.

ITS GREAT,HOWEVER...I THINK SEEING IT IN 1995 WHEN IT WAS FRESH WOULD PROBABLY HELP A LOT...

I thought it was great too
Two dynamite performances

It deserves a rewatch on my part so many years later👍

I consider it one of the best films I have ever seen. People have different tastes, and I guess this one isn't for you. I didn't like Avatar when seemingly everyone else did.
