i remember see this movie back when it be release and i still remember the buzz i felt when i leave the cinema . everything about this movie be magnificent . the music be top notch and i still play the soundtrack after all these year . i have see this movie so many time and yet i still get yearning to watch it again and again . nicholas cage be great and whenever i see cameron dye in anything nowadays and i always associate him with this movie . it be too bad the rest of the cast do not go on to great thing but maybe that be part of this film charm . i would not do a film school critique a i be sure all the analyst out there can find fault if they want to and but what i will say be that this movie define my teenage year and still continue to influence my life over 20 year later . the movie feel great and stir up emotion when you watch it ( well . it do for me ) and i can not recommend it highly enough for anybody who have not yet see it . you either get the movie or you do not . those of you who get it will be reward with a unique movie experience .
