Also 25 years ago today...Nic Cage is John Travolta, John Travolta is Nic Cage! FACE/OFF hits 25!

[mreddie]

It's on PlutoTV in the US, Paramount+ in Canada, Disney+/Star+ in the Internationally if you somehow didn't see it...is this the most unhinged movie of the 90s?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I could eat a peach for hours.

 

[thekonamicode]

This movie is so fucking good.

 

[Duncan]

no more drugs






for that man

 

[Wrexis]

Face...off.

*makes weird hand move*

 

[Speevy]

WHEEEE...what a predicament!

 

[HStallion]

Castor Troy is an all time great name.

 

[astro]

They should have both won oscars for this film.

 

[wenis]

should've gotten a UHD announcement.

They should have both won Best Actor and accepted the award pretending to be one another.

Or at the very least released a thousand doves into the audience in slow motion

 

[SoleSurvivor]

If you're a fan of Cage (and Face/Off), and you haven't seen The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent... please stop what you're doing and do that instead.

 

[waterpuppy]

The casting director for this film deserves a nobel prize.

 

[Altazor]

*weird creepy hand in face motion intended to actually be emotionally significant but utterly baffling instead*

GOAT movie in terms of batshit insanity. It's amazing to see Cage acting as he believes Travolta would act as a good guy, and Travolta acting as he believes Nic Cage would act as an insane bad guy. LOVE IT.

 

[j7vikes]

It's an incredible movie that I've watched multiple times and will continue watching.

 

[AuthenticM]

literally one of the greatest movies ever made.

 

[RedVejigante]

I'm not sure John Woo knows what he's doing.

[Magic Mushroom]

Awesome film. Woo is the GOAT action director.

 

[Culex]

Definitely one of the best on-screen charismatic duos.

 

[Altazor]

 

[Glassboy]

I still have not seen this and was surprised at its RT score when I checked it last year. I have no idea what this is about but I think it's time to finally watch it.

 

[Dodongo]

We didn't appreciate this movie enough

 

[Realyst]

I feel like no one praises the score by John Powell enough. One of my favorites.

 

[Kadzork]

Awesome movie - you can tell they had a lot of fun making it.

What was up with the face touching though?

 

[Astro Cat]

I could eat a peach for hours.

lol I was gonna get a tattoo of a peach with eat for hours underneath. I still might.

you best go in blind, the only expectation is to not try to make sense of things and just roll with it. It's a blast, so have fun!

 

[DJ_Lae]

A ton of fun.

Also, incredibly cathartic to rewatch now and see Danny Masterson get kicked in the balls. Too bad it wasn't real.

 

[Aiqops]

Face.........off.

 

[MrBS]

Still think the idea of the remake just having Cage/Travolta reprise their roles with no explanation is the way to go. Maybe swap them around for kicks.

 

[Deleted member 37011]

Face/Off, The Rock, Con-Air. Nic Cage was on another level in the 1990's action scene.

2 of those were back to back months.

 

[shaneo632]

I remember it blowing my mind as a kid when I saw how well reviewed this was. I just assumed critics would've dismissed it as a dumb silly action flick (when they embraced it for that + amazing direction + performances).

Yes.

 

[Praetorpwj]

Isn't this religious?

One day I WILL find a pair of Castor Troy octagonal rose tinted sunglasses.

 

[bastardly]

travolta was great but cage was legendary, shame hes only troy for like 20 minutes

 

[mreddie]

It's in the name

It's the final touch to the lips that gets me every time.

 

[shinobi602]

One of my all time favorites. Watched it so many times.

 

[Speevy]

Your Dad was leering at you a few days ago and now he's putting his fingers in your mouth. I think it's time to call someone.

 

[honavery]

Seeing it in 35mm tonight. In about 90 minutes.

 

[Nerdkiller]

I love this damn movie.

 

[starpower]

 

[Bishop89]

Travolta is the best in this
