At the Movies!

Had the opportunity to see the movie Pig starring Nicolas Cage. Phenomenal. GO SEE IT.

Pig 2021

I am completely fortunate to see this movie in the theatre. When I heard that there was a movie coming out about Nicolas Cage going on a mission to save a Pig, I just had to watch it. It delivers and it is already in contention as one of my all time favorites. 

Pig is a dark and depressing movie that is more of a character study of Nicolas Cage's character. What I thought the movie was gonna be is just another John Wick action flick. Mind you that I didn't actually see the trailer so I was expecting a B movie starring Nicolas Cage. However. what I got to see was more of a drama thriller that proves that Nicolas Cage is a beast to be reckon with. I can feel the emotions that Cage was instilling as Robin Feld. Enamored by Robin's quest to rescue his Pig and seeing the reason why he became a hermit left me feeling for the poor chump. Robin is basically the John Wick of his universe, the exception being that Robin is much more grounded and the anti-badass of this movie. The side characters are also great and Nicolas Cage sidekick does a lot to show why Robin is what he is. A favorite scene of mine is the conversation Robin has with a former co-worker from his younger years. Also props to the director Michael Sarnoski as this was his first movie and very much excited for what he does next.

This movie is fantastic and I highly recommend it for people that enjoy dramas and the like. Especially if you enjoy an hour and half of Nihilism and Depression.

2021 is gearing up to be a fantastic year for movies. Lately, a lot of shit movies just kept churning out that it left me exhausted and disillusioned with the sole exception of OLD. M. Night Shyamalan made a fantastic movie that reinvigorated my excitement for upcoming movies.

The ones to look out for is the Green Knight, A Night in Soho, Dune, and The French Dispatch. Three of which are coming out the same day.
