There are surprises in the old-fashioned plot

Before I watched "Stickman", I already knew the end of the story-a full-time scammer was deceived by a girl who impersonated a daughter. Even though the ending is known, the story is still fascinating, and to be honest, it makes me feel like a failure. I was going to observe it with an entertaining mind, but I got stuck like the protagonist of the story.
If the film is very successful, the screenwriter's credit will account for more than half. In the case of scam films everywhere in Hollywood, we are still attracted by such an old story, and we cannot but appreciate the skill of the screenwriter. Of course, another person to be praised is Nicholas Cage. The uncle played this man with obsessive-compulsive disorder and open-space phobia so great! ! Just watching his performance is a kind of high-grade appreciation.
The little girl is also pretty good, acting in her true colors, but after checking the information, she turned out that she was 23 and acting as a 14-year-old girl is so realistic. From this point of view, it is also comparable to the 18-year-old playing the 12-year-old girl in "Fruit Candies". It's so good... I found that classics are classics. Everyone says it's good, and there must be his reasons.

    I've watched a lot of this kind of film, and since the first time my partner introduced him to a doctor, I knew it was a scam. 80% of those who strongly demand referrals from doctors, lawyers, and accountants have problems.

    The stickman tells the swindler's story not bad Cage style as always
