Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

adamcarter-63372 This film is written and directed by one of my favorite filmmakers working today, Paul Schrader. He's most famous for writing Taxi Driver and Raging Bull. However, he also wrote Bringing Out the Dead and directed Dog Eat Dog which I both love and both star Nicolas Cage. The weird thing is that neither Paul Schrader or Nic Cage wants you to see this movie. This is because the Dying of the LIght was taken away from the filmmakers and re-edited by the producers without Paul Scharders approval. He claims that he was literally locked out of the editing room while producers edited the film to their liking. There are points in this film where it truly shows. The version we got is so on and off. There were scenes where I was completely invested in what was unfolding in front of me and other scenes where it was so dull that I just wanted to pass out. The film has great ideas, but it just doesn't do enough with them and when it does something good, the next scene undoes it. At the end of the film, something happens which I found exceptionally impactful and powerful and could have been a great ending, but the next scene completely stabs us in the back and reverses that decision.The editing is unpleasantly sloppy in places which is most apparent during a brief action sequence halfway through the movie. The main character is also fascinating and while Nicolas Cage does a great job, he just isn't explored enough.There is a great film here but it just doesn't make it's way to the surface. What is at the surface is a strange mixture of great and bad. Some scenes in this film or fantastic and some are trash. I hope Paul Schrader's version of the film gets released because I'm positive it is much better than what we got here.

Tss5078 Evan Lake (Nicholas Cage) was a legend at the C.I.A., but after years in the game, and a particularly horrible experience at the hands of the Taliban, he was diagnosed with dementia, and forced into retirement. Lake is moving on with his life when new information comes to light, that his old nemesis, a terrorist leader long believed dead, is back. Knowing their best chance to catch him is Lake, they turn to him for help, but can he keep it together long enough to complete his mission? This unbelievably was a b-movie, yet a remarkably strong performance for Nicholas Cage, who randomly had to go between C.I.A. legend and confused old man. His performance is aided by the late Anton Yelchin, playing an analyst who admires Lake so much, that he goes against orders to help him with his mission. The whole dynamic between the man at the end of his career on his last mission, and the boy at the start of his career on his first mission, really added something different, that you don't typically see in espionage films. Dying of The Light really does have a lot to like about it, but one must remember, it is an espionage film and a direct-to-video one at that. The writing isn't spectacular and parts of it are more than somewhat confusing. They also throw in a lot of Evan's flashbacks and delusions at the completely wrong times, which really did start to bother me as the film got more intense. Overall, I did enjoy this film, I thought the acting was terrific, and I loved the dynamic and chemistry between the two leading men, despite the obvious age difference. Dying of The Light certainly isn't a perfect movie, but it's still an entertaining one.

adonis98-743-186503 Veteran CIA agent Evan Lake has been ordered to retire. But when his protégé uncovers evidence that Lake's nemesis, the terrorist Banir, has resurfaced, Lake goes rogue, embarking on a perilous, intercontinental mission to eliminate his sworn enemy. Nicholas Cage and Anton Yelchin in the same movie this should be fun right? Well not really or at least it's almost fun since Yelchin does most of the work here and he basically stole most of the show as for Cage he was alright but i was blown away from him mostly from his ear performance that should have been nominated for an Oscar but jokes aside this film was at least kinda enjoyable.

skeptic skeptical I am always up for a good movie about the caustic incompetence agency. This one offered a different angle, being more about a man suffering an aggressive brain degeneration disease and wanting desperately to avenge his torture from twenty-two years before. One must ask why it took him twenty-two years to develop what overnight becomes an idée fixe, but I guess that was the point of his having this particular brain disease, which causes alterations in judgment and hypersensitivity and overreaction. Nicolas Cage plays the CIA agent undergoing rapid brain degeneration, and he is pretty convincing. How he finds his aggressor is quite a bit less so. It's another case where only through a major contrivance on the part of the script writer is there even a story here to portray. When he finally finds himself in a room with the man who tortured him, Cage suddenly changes his mind—apparently also because of his brain disease! But then when a group of goons come after him and end up harming his friend, the former CIA agent suddenly realizes that he must do what he came to do and goes back to kill the guy, which is only accomplished after a bloody and ugly contest between the two. So, yes, there's some action here, but this production doesn't come close to the Bourne trilogy.
