A deceptively clever and utterly fearless exploration of obsession, love, madness, fascination, self-doubt, and personal growth (among other themes). If there is an emotional note that this film doesn't hit, I can't think of it. On the other hand, I can think of at least two dozen quotable lines.

3&1/2 stars, good movie bc of cage, and cage, but story was kinda all over the place. I would watch again though, just feel like it's missing something meaningful really. Close, but no cigar.
