I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

An absolute waste of money

Absolutely the worst movie.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

I was actually curious to watch this film. But Nicolas Cage performance as usual is so bad, it makes the experience excruciating. He has few good movies, but indeed not because of him. He truly is one of the worst actors that ever lived. I can´t undestand how he still manages to be cast in movies. Casting directors must be deaf, blind, well paid or don´t know nothing about acting. That Academy Award is still a joke...

This is a solid underrated comedy film, the people who gave this movie a low rating are mostly offended religious people, so if you're religious (christian or muslim) this may not be the movie for you.Some good laughs were had watching this, a bit boring in some parts but overall its a fun nicolas cage movie.

Nicolas Cage tries to take a break from straight to Pay TV action movies with a free wheeling quirky comedy as Gary Faulkner who we are told in the opening monologue who might be certifiably insane. We are also told that this movie is somewhat trueish.Faulkner, the demented handyman experiences a vision of God (Russell Brand) who tells him to go Pakistan and find and capture Osama Bin Laden. That is what Faulkner tries to do armed with a samurai sword. He attempts to sail there from San Diego, then hand glide there from Israel before deciding to fly to Pakistan on a plane.Director Larry Charles holds back on the film being a satirical romp and concentrates on Faulkner's eccentricities with some allusions to him being Don Quixote (we even see Faulkner riding a donkey.)The film falls a bit flat and Cage's whiny voice becomes annoying. It also does not help that Marrakesh is unconvincing standing in for Islamabad.

I was so looking forward to seeing Nicolas Cage and Russel Brand in one movie as I love both of them. However, the storyline consists of endless meaningless dialogues, Cage overacting all the way to a point where you can't stand the self absorbed ADD behavior of the character. I did not realize it was supposed to be a comedy? Not much happens in the movie, just a bunch of traveling back and forth with little insight of Pakistan, just so very cliché. Although the movie is just 90 minutes long, I started looking at my cell phone after about 20 minutes cause my mind kept wandering, it was just so boring. What a waste of so much potential. What a waste of my time - I am frustrated.
