Rage - Yay Netflix!

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Former gangster Nicolas Cage's daughter gets kidnapped and he and his crew go on a rampage to find her.

Sound familiar?

The good news is that it shifts away from that other daughter kidnapping movie pretty early on.

The bad news is that the shift leads it right into holes in logic.

The movie is one big twist, which is fine, but it's really slow, really boring, and the logic behind the crew's actions don't make any sense at all. In fact, just about everyone's actions make no sense at all.

Shame because the twist could have been a nice draw for a better written movie. It wasn't horribly acted either.

As this movie stands, it isn't worth your time.
