Army Of One is a waste of talent across the board. From the very first scene where Cage opens his mouth, I was pulled out of a movie so ludicrous I’d never return. For what seems like an ...
Some thoughts on Army of One. I just found this sub recently so forgive me if I'm repeating things that have been said before. I have been working my way through the Sopranos for the second time. I just got to Army of One and I thought it was fantastic the first time, but the second time it's even better. Probably because you don't have to wait ...
The story in "Army of One" is about a fairly unstable civilian who decides to set out to find Bin Laden and bring him to justice, since the American army had no luck in doing so.

You’d be hard-pressed to cite any moment in which the humor had any clear timing or progression beyond Nicolas Cage‘s usual barrage of ...

Nov 6, 2016 · His American flag parasail and American flag goggles, while absurd, are also rooted in a man’s pure love of country. It’s the film’s best quality. He hopes to impress the girl, make some money, and do right for a U.S. still haunted by 9/11. And Army of One’s biggest success is his comedy of failures.
