It was so nice of you to make the tremendous effort to entertain us when we know all you really care about are jewels, thongs, and love slaves. Your munificience is appreciated.

As the film opens, John Travolta (the good guy at the beginning of the movie) is riding on a carousel with his son. Nasty sniper Nicholas Cage shoots at Travolta, hits him and kills Travolta's son. At this point I left. But Brandon says it was an exciting movie. As you may or may not know, Travolta then plays the bad guy (who has had plastic surgery to look like Travolta the good guy) and Nicholas Cage plays the good guy who has had plastic surgery to look like Cage the bad guy.
