Re: Vengeance: A Love Story
Vengeance: A Love Story is more of what Cage has doing for quite a while already now, starring in B-film/ Lifetime type films. And this is a film that really had no purpose of being made, it's deadpan average, far from good, but for what it is also not terrible. Cage unfortunately doesn't add anything to the role, far away is any type of powerful interplay as he showcased earlier in his career. He just gets through the film stoically, although the part is written like it too. Don Johnson was great though, but his role was so limited, he would have deserved more screen time. It's just a throwaway time-waster of a film, that provides a few moments of enjoyment with its vengeance kills.

Vengeance: A Love Story
Much like Cage's latest, Looking Glass, this also felt like a TV-movie, but a good one! Based on the novel, Rape: A Love Story, the appropriately re-titled Vengeance: A Love Story is a good watch. Cage sleepwalks through it all, and let's be clear the court case is no A Time to Kill, but there are some awesome bouts of vengeance here. The film starts with a tiny but very nicely staged shootout too, and the story is just pleasantly watchable throughout. I also thought Anna Hutchison was pretty decent, and overly hot (pre-rape). What a babe.
