Review of Snake Eyes (1998) by Robert J — 16 Jun 2008
I am not a Nicholas Cage fan by any means, though some of his roles occasionally do stand out as nothing less than classic. 8mm, Leaving Las Vegas...Snake Eyes is certainly not one of them. This movie is slow and drawn out and not even the acting of Gary Sinise or the musical score of legendary Japanese producer Ryuichi Sakamoto can save this mess.
Cage plays the ultra-annoying Rick Santoro, a detective in Atlantic City who suddenly finds himself trying to solve a murder during a fixed boxing match. Typical Brian DePalma stuff, which means it's only decent at best.
It could've been better.
