Swartacus’s review published on Letterboxd:
When this wretched year of our Lord 2016 mercifully comes to a close later this month...I truly believe one scene from a film will stand head and shoulders above the rest: Nicolas Kim Coppola Cage (fully engorged in fear and stupidity) jolting up from his hotel bed and flailing a samurai sword at a Pakistani prayer buzzer while screaming "Try it motherfucker!"
Thank you Larry Charles ...I needed a good laugh today.
What a warped piece of pop trash!
Larry Charles has led me to believe (probably not falsely) that this is how the rest of the world sees us now...as an incensed pony-tailed, cartoon-voiced, aging Con Air Cage...fumbling around in the dark with some high grade hash in one hand and a samurai sword in the other. A hapless, yet dangerous toddler-man who God has told to forever sail to foreign lands to right injustices and bring back cheap trinket souvenirs to his children.
"King Donkey's in the sky!"
God help us.
