cage is literally doing it to help pay off tax debt and has some IRS deal so he has to make lots of movies
Apologies if this was posted before. The movie is a remake of In Order of Disappearance, a recent film with the excellent Stellan Skarsgard. I'll see Liam's version of it, but I doubt it can surpass the original. One thing to consider is that the remake was directed by the director of the original version so it may be as good. I love the poster for it. It reminds me of the 70's style like the one for Get Carter. Here is the Variety article about the film. Here is the trailer:
One could argue John Wayne had done that with McQ in 1974. He drives a Camaro, uses a Uzi type weapon and has two younger women wanting to shag him senseless.
John Wayne was a badass for a very long time, where Liam Neeson didn't get that until he was eligible for AARP membership.
One film I thought he was really good in, albeit in a very different role we would normally see him in, is in Woody Allen's Husbands and Wives. He's not a guy we usually see cast as a nervous, unsure man.
saw trailer promo for his new movie Honest Thief, it kind of looks like Taken where Neeson is again coming for some bad guys who pissed him off
