if you didnt know con air is genuinely probably one of the worst action movies ever created the audio balancing is fucking terrible and the acting isnt great automatically because nic cage is in it plus the writing is so shit fans of the action genre claim it as like a parody movie that being said its an underrated piece of art in the cage film collection its fucking hilarious because you cant take it seriously and maybe me liking this movie isnt totally a bit anymore but listen the movie synopsis tldr is young veteran gets convicted after killing a guy in self defense (arguable as he could have just gotten in his fucking car) goes to jail while his wife is pregnant and gets on a flight full of convicts who un shockingly pull some bs and take over the plane that cusack made to transfer all these cons to a new jail cage pulls some action movie hero bullshit since hes on parole and has a buddy on the plane and then the movie ends happily good story i liked cusack in this movie hes unironically a good actor and did a good job at playing the heros sidekick though it may be hard to judge how his acting because almost anyones acting looks great next to nic cages the one liners in this movie are not funny or creative but at least you get the hit quote "put the bunny back in the box" and a shockingly decent transfemme character??? somehow??? the other cons respect her for the most part but they kill her pretty fucking fast and shes not really plot relevant aside from the jokes shes used for they cut some parts to keep the r rating but none of them were insanely important to the movie aside from the one where cameron talks about how him and baby-o met and why theyre friends. id recommend this movie to nobody aside from people who like to watch bad movies with their friends or by themselves to laugh about it all and all i give this movie a biased five star rating and a serious two and a half star rating, its a bad movie with bad sfx and bad acting. ★★☆☆☆ (2.5) unbiased ★★★★★ (5) biased
