Nicolas Cage delivers a blistering, unforgettable performance as Evan Lake, a desk-bound Langley CIA agent forced into retirement by signs of early onset Dementia. At the same time he discovers that his former tormentor, Jihadist Muhhamed Banir (Alexander Karim), is not dead as assumed for two decades but is alive and receiving experimental medical treatment. Banir's exact location is unknown but with the help of a disgraced young agent (Anton Yelchin), Evan sets out to track down and confront him before it is too late for both of them.

Nicolas Cage’s movies have been really declining in quality. The emphasis put on his injured right ear was almost ridiculous. It’s clear that he no longer knows what kind of movies he should appear in, and that he’s taking way too many roles. The only good thing was that this movie didn’t have the three-hour running time the creators originally planned for, because otherwise I’d not have finished watching it.

I simply like Nicolas Cage, and perhaps that's precisely because he doesn't really care what he's film he’s acting in. He takes roles on after the other, and lately, he regularly appears in B-movie productions. This political thriller, however, is not bad at all, and for a B-movie, it's good, thanks to Cage's performance. He's traditional, but I still enjoy it. Moreover, he has yet another excellent look.
