Review of Red Rock West (1993) by Adrian B — 28 Oct 2013
In a small town, an unemployed man (Nicolas Cage) wanders in looking for a job. He gets one, by this rich, ruthless nut (J.T. Walsh) who wants to kills his wife (Lara Flynn Boyle) who apparently made the money from an inheritance (or so it seems).
The he gets involved with a crazy crowd, which includes this other nut (Dennis Hopper) from Dallas and attempts to escape the psychotic town. Probably most people that know Nicolas Cage have never heard of this film and watch all the critical bombs from after 2010.
This is actually quite an interesting film. Suspenseful, bizarre, and takes a few surprisingly compelling turns. My issue with this film is the dialogue is not great. It's one of those movies that divulges too much in crude language.
However, it is actually a pretty good movie.
