Con Air released in theaters 25 years ago today
- Thread starter M. Wallace
- Start date
I did a rewatch of this a few days ago.
Unfortunately I'm not much of a fan.
Unfortunately I'm not much of a fan.
Let me just say, I love The Rock and I love Face/Off. I think Cage is great in both those, just wonderful. Con Air... Oh Con Air. I don't like. A lot of my friends who have very similar tastes in movies love Con Air. I haven't seen it in probably over 10 years and wanted to give it another shot. Showed it my son, who did like it. Maybe it's just me. I don't care for Cage or Malkovich in this. I do like a lot of the other characters and some of the action is alright. Just as a whole I'm not a fan.
I saw this in Theaters opening weekend.
Did you see it? Feeling old?
Speak for yourself.
Saw this at the theater at release and have rewatched many times on cable.
You're misreading what I said: i'm saying you wouldn't see this kind of movie again, not that I don't want to watch it again. No studio would greenlight this movie again, but we are better for it that we even got to see it!
I saw it. Still remember some of the lines off by heart such as "I drove through three states wearing her head as a hat"

C'mon OP, you and I both know this gif is required posting.
You're right, corrected.
The ending is so over the top stupid.

Our videotape of The Rock had the same problem and kept bugging me as a kid

Oh, my mistake. My apologies!
Yes, you are definitely correct in regards to that and it's a shame we won't see a movie like this again.
Emblematic of how avant-garde this movie truly is
It's my favorite bad movie of all time
You know, as much as I love this movie, now that i'm older and wiser, i'm having trouble with how the movie really wants the audience to sympathize with Steve Buscemi character. Like the very last shot shows him happy and free in Vegas, like seriously? Did everyone forgot that the guy was a serial killer and a pedofile?
Saw it opening weekend as a teen. Still rules on rewatch last month. I love the Predator-style end credits. The cast is BIG and and plays big.
I saw the gif before opening. Delivered.
My grandma loved Cage, and this was her summer flick when it came out

Put the bunny back in the box.Tell me what your favorite part of the movie is or the bunny gets it!
Which is all the more odd what happened to him. These are back to back blockbusters and 90's classics.
