My Review:
Since i saw Karsten bought Con Air, i was in the mood to rewatch it, ages since i watched last time. And the movie is just great from start to finish. Great action trough-out, Some great moments here and there. A great Malkowich in the lead as the crazy mastermind and ofc the oldschool Nicolas Cage! I really love the old stuff from Nicolas Cage. I think Nicolas Cage and Jerry Bruckheimer has made alot of great movies together! All in all this a fun and great actionflick! So lets hope we will see Cage back to his oldschool days when he was at the top. Check it out!

I may have to rewatch Con Air as well. It's been 12 yaers since I watched it. I especially remember Steve Buscemi being wonderfully creepy. He's good at that.

Hehe, yeah! Rewatch it! And rewatch it in HD if you can. I think they have done a great job with the transfer.
And when it comes to Steve Buscemi, he is a great creep. He plays the creeps just so wonderful. It seems so real,
and when i come to think of it, i havent seen Steve Buscemi in a part where he didnt play either a creep (pedophile) or
any other type of criminal. There are some actors that just "are made" for that villian part. Like Sir Anthony Hopkins aswell.
