"This 2003 film, directed by Ridley Scott, is a great example of why people admire Nicolas Cage as an actor. This role is a perfect vehicle for Cage to sink his teeth into, a neurotic, agoraphobic con man with OCD. With his partner, played by Sam Rockwell, they run cons on unsuspecting people to make them willingly give them money with the promises of advantages. When a teenage daughter shows up that he didn't know he had, Roy (Cage) tries acting as a dad while trying to teach her the art of the con... Or will the con artist get conned? A good movie that still holds up today. 8/10"
"I quite enjoyed this movie, despite the confusing twist."
