A modern day Hitchcock movie. Red Rock West is a true classic. If you can find the movie see it! A strong story where out of luck drifter Nicolas Cage (Michael) is offered a job, because of mistaken identity.

Michael believes the job is to be a bartender, but turns out to be a contract to murder the bar owner's wife. Michael a moral man tries to fix the problem, but the real killer Lyle arrives (aka Dennis Hopper).

Red Rock West has excellent plot twists and story curves which make the viewer yearning for the next part of the story. Nicolas Cage's best acting performance, which was on par with Dennis Hopper's psycho cowboy character.

The rest of the supporting cast was outstanding. John dahl directed a movie which creates character development, while increasing tension with each scene. Four out of five stars.
