This was exactly what I needed tonight. But what I needed wasn't something good. Nic Cage and everything that happens within his 30-foot sphere of influence is one hundred percent unbelievable at all times. _Under Siege_ with talking parrots, what could wrong? Lots. Still fun though. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

And for his part, as normal Cage performances go, he wasn't bad. The biggest drawback however…
Really good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. This is one of Nicolas Cage's more reserved roles, and the movie is very well balanced between him and Kevin Durand (and LaMonica Garrett and his team dealing with Durand's character). The premise is intriguing and simple: trapped on a boat with a killer, wild animals, military, and a hunter: who wins? The biggest problem I have with this, and the…
