Nicolas Cage greedily bites off an explosive role as the world's richest arms dealer, in this clever thriller

Nicolas Cage greedily bites off an explosive role as the world's richest arms dealer, in this clever thriller.

Walking into the world’s trouble spots in a smart suit and with a witty line, Ukrainian-born, American-bred Cage thinks he’s king and business is booming.

His life seems perfect when he also marries dream woman Bridget Moynahan, but then he makes the mistake of enlisting his younger brother Jared Leto into his evil trade and persistent Interpol agent Ethan Hawke won’t leave him alone…

With brilliant sequences (don’t miss the bullet’s-view opening shot) and fantastic performances, this movie involves and grips and has a lot to say about the sorry state of our gun-happy world.
