Patrick Lussier is bringing movie-goers another 3-D  joyride with Drive Angry. The film stars Nicolas Cage and Amber Heard. With and an over-the-top plot, the film is sure to satisfy fans of the action-adventure genre by providing them with a vicarious shot of adrenaline. Cage plays a vicious ex-con who escapes from Hell to seek revenge against the cult who murdered his daughter. He has only three days before they sacrifice her baby under a full moon. Heard joins Cage in his quest for redemption as the two companions track the cult leader together in what is sure to be a ridiculously wild ride. [/Film]

With Drive Angry, Cage once again chooses to make another artistic compromise for a pay check.  The once critically acclaimed actor continues to crank out film after film, with what seems like reckless abandon. Nevertheless, I am still a huge fan of Cage weather he’s providing us with a quality performance or just making a mediocre film incredibly entertaining. With incomparable charisma, versatility and star power Cage continues to be a bankable A-list actor.

This will be Heard’s largest role in a studio feature. The twenty-four year old is at the top of the heap of young Hollywood starlets. While critically significant roles may not be in Amber’s immediate future, her commercially viable, incredibly hot smoking looks may just propel her into the Hollywood stratosphere and possibly dethrone the notoriously difficult, very married current Hollywood super-hottie.

Drive Angry has all the components of a successful action-adventure film. Outlandish plot…check. Eccentric leading man…double check….Painfully sumptuous female….well you know the rest.

Can Nicolas Cage resurrect his once impressive career?
