Every now and then you see a movie that has been viewed by more than 100000 people and you think there is hope for humanity. But then again maybe they didn't like it.
The only thing that goes smoothly in the life of David Sprintz (Nicolas Cage) is his job. He is a weather man and the minute he steps out of work his life is akin to the Chicago weather he predicts. Divorced and alienated from his kids, David walks his life in a disconnected stupor. David tries hard to clear the cobwebs and grab on to every lifeline available just to feel connected. Sliced with some cunning humor the film takes you to that place where you float blissfully. And to think I decided to see the movie just for Michael Caine...

good movie. different and very honest
amazed at the 4 stars though
Looking back I am not sure why I gave it 4 stars. Must be for the sense of disconnection that so well portrayed by Mr. Cage and the general feel of the film. Also the fact that it is supposedly main stream.
