Other than Amber I have ZERO interest in this.
You never know which Nicolas Cage you will get…the good one or the one that keeps appearing in crappy genre movies. I’m hoping this is one of the good ones.
It’s not.
Need I remind you, Sean….

That’s one of the bad ones I’m talking about.
It falls into the unfortunate ground where the movie is not very good, but it doesn’t have a raging Cage to make it better. Especially since it’s titled Drive Angry, I was disappointed in the lack of angry driving, as suggested in the title of my review. William Fichtner is the bomb in this movie though, as always.
