This movie answers the question that nobody asked: "What if we did Collateral in the desert, with Nicolas Cage and a boring script?".
I know the comparison may not be fair, I mean, the only common threads are a guy with a gun enters a stranger's car, threatens him with a gun and asks him to drive, leaving a chaotic path behind him.
The makers of this movie try to hold the audience captive, by making us think why the bad guy is doing what he's doing, but honestly, the lines are so bad and the twist is so weak, that not even Nic and Joel can save the story.
By the end of the movie, you are left with two unlikable characters and an unsatisfactory conclusion.
Honestly, this feels like a short story, stretched out to a full length feature.
Having said that, if you just want to see Nic Cage's "Caginess" being let out once in a while, you do get to see it, I just don't know if it's worth wasting 1h30 of your life for that.

Nicolas Cage gives his expected over-the-top charismatic performance, and is the only reason you may finish watching this poorly paced 90 min predictable slog with nothing really new to offer.
This film has some intense moments, but ultimately, the story is too tired, cliched, predictable, and goes no where - as though the filmmakers are making it up as they go along. You'll find yourself just sitting around until Cage can go wild, wondering if the Mucous Man was really sprinkling boogers in the writer's creative juices as this screenplay was being written.
There was no devil in the details of this script, and the only sympathy the devil deserves should be given to anyone viewing this mess. It's a very generous 5/10 all going to the two leads who gave it their best shot with what little they had to work with.

I went in to this film expecting a really bad plot and boring characters. Truthfully because of the reviews probably wouldn't of even give it the time of day if it wasn't for Nicholas cage but I am so glad I did. This movie was such a enjoyable film I really enjoyed the plot and Nicholas cages character was outstanding.
Also read while looking in to the film that the Red hair on the character was Nicholas cages idea and it made the character in to something different.
The movie had action violence and even humour with a few plot twists was slightly disappointed with the very ending but all together thought it was really enjoyable and would recommend.

The movie title and Nick cage's outfit seems to make you think he's satan terrorizing a random man from his visit to the hospital as his wife is giving birth and as the movie starts out you get that impression, however even though cage is dressed like a pseudo satan character and is quite the evil person and vicious to boot, it's not what it seems. There is a major twist going on that doesn't appear till the very end. Other than the graphic violence and blatant murder, it's an interesting story and plot. Very imaginative idea in its execution, no nudity, sex or questionable parts, not for the kiddos and only mature adults should see this. Quite a wild ride.
The more I see Cage, the more I get impressed by his ability to pull off multi-layered characters. The cage must be one of those rarest species of actors who have always been underappreciated, no matter what kind of work or how difficult of a project they involved themselves in.
I see people more often than not underestimating him as a performer, and it's a shame that they don't realise or recognise the kind of capacity and range this man owns. Yes, he's been part of multiple duds, he may not have the filmography to rave about, but he has always given his very best, irrespective of the quality of the movies he chose to be part of!
Like in this case...
The film in itself is nothing exceptional, not at all. One could even argue that this is a cheap knockoff of Michael Mann's "Collateral", a subpar imitation of Mann's iconic creation minus the thrill. But it's Cage who made things a whole lot better, intensifying it through his spirited performance.
Had he not been a part of it, this was on its way to being an utter failure, but it did not end up like one because of Nick Cage and Nick Cage only! He was the saving grace.
