Face/Off (2021x9)

Air date: Feb 28, 2021

The 90s was a crazy time not only for action movies in general, but also for Nicholas Cage and John Travolta. With over-the-top action movies were taking over the box office, John Woo’s Face/Off was the epitome of craziness and brought both these over-the-top actors into an over-the-top premise with over-the-top action. The movie is insane. Face/Off raises a whole lot of questions. Like why didn’t Castor Troy just take a second shot at the carousel? What kind of a name is Pollux? How did the FBI leave a dangerous terrorist unguarded in an empty hospital? How did he track down every single person that knew about Sean Archer’s mission? How did that prison escape work, and why did the cops just abandon their chase? Why is John Travolta wiping his fingers on everyone’s faces? Did he just bring home a small child without consulting his wife first?
