Fascinating watch

This film is very good, and Cage delivers a very good performance.

There are so many layers to this film. Watching films like this is why we love to watch them, to ponder, to discuss, and maybe to change lives.

From a metaphysical standpoint there is so much to unpack. There are also some interesting scenarios when it comes to the mind, and perspectives of people and how we all see each other.

This film really deserves to be talked about for a long time.

Highly recommended.

Agreed--
It was a clever premise with both satire and comedy woven in.
He was like a neutered, unwitting Freddy Krueger, albeit a Freddy the "victims" can actually strike back against.
The irony of bearing some vague responsibility for something you had no control over yet are still somehow tied to was both interesting and confounding at the same time.

Yes, true.

I agree... a very interesting film...

It was definitely a comment (among other things) on cancel culture... this guy was being canceled because of something he didn't do and had absolutely no control over...

I didn't see it as a defence of anybody who has been canceled, but just a reminder... be mindful of who and why you would cancel anybody...

Cage was great (as always)... I recommend everybody to watch this
