      What to know

      Critics Consensus

      Chiefly of interest to Nicolas Cage completists and hardcore B-movie fans, this action thriller suffers from an unfortunate lack of Primal energy. Read critic reviews

      • Dec 28, 2019

        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.
