Reviews:

A feast of visuals, but a famine of suspense.
Director Brian DePalma has always been excellent at letting the visual image speak for itself (like Hitchcock, with whom he is often compared). In “Snake Eyes”, the juxtaposed and multi-angled images are captivating for a while, until you realize how unsuspenseful the story quickly becomes. Once all the key players and plot elements are revealed, the film seems to have nowhere to go and resorts to those hokey flashback devices where we see the events play out differently via each character’s recollection. Cage and Sinise do the best they can with the material, but they lack real motivation, mirroring the film’s lack of direction. This particularly hurts Sinise’s characterization which starts out solid, then is set adrift mid-way through the film, and winds up completely contrived by the end. Overall a disappointment, but maybe not a bad rental if you are a Nicholas Cage fan.
Review By: Talz
De Palma & Cage Excel In Stylish Conspiracy Thriller
“Snake Eyes” is a stylish thriller about a political assassination and the investigation that follows it. What distinguishes this film from numerous others with similar plots is the sheer brilliance of Brian De Palma’s direction and Nicolas Cage’s extraordinary performance as a crooked cop who originally appears to be exuberant and boorish but gradually becomes more subdued as he starts to uncover details of a complex conspiracy and then gets concerned with problems relating to friendship, loyalty and delineating the boundaries of his own criminality.

The impact of this movie’s opening sequence is absolutely astonishing. It lasts for about 15 – 20 minutes and delivers so much exposition, movement and pace that it’s impossible to resist being caught up in its momentum and gripped by what’s going on. Cage is at the centre of everything that happens at this stage and his hyperactive, fast-talking character seems perfectly in tune with the exceptional camera-work to such an extent that even just watching the action becomes totally exhilarating.

De Palma’s considerable visual flair is also a strong feature of the remainder of the movie with intelligent and imaginative use being made of flashbacks, slow motion and events being filmed from numerous viewpoints. There’s also some effective split screen sequences and an amazing overhead shot where the camera travels across the top of a series of adjoining hotel rooms. This type of originality in presenting visual information (that would otherwise be fairly mundane) is very impressive and further evidence of De Palma’s remarkable talent.

It’s fight night in Atlantic City and corrupt homicide detective Rick Santoro (Nicolas Cage) has a ringside seat in the arena where a heavyweight boxing match is due to take place. Sitting nearby is his old friend Navy Commander Kevin Dunne (Gary Sinise) who’s responsible for the security of the U.S. Secretary Of Defense. When the fight gets under way, Dunne gets distracted by a glamorous redhead called Serena (Jayne Heitmeyer) who doesn’t look very interested in the boxing and soon after he moves towards her, she rushes off through the crowd and Dunne follows.

A very short time later, Dunne’s seat is taken by an attractive young woman called Julia Costello (Carla Gugino) who leans over and tries desperately to speak to the Secretary Of Defense. She fails, however, because just at that moment, the heavyweight champion is knocked down and the Secretary Of Defense is shot in the neck. Costello looks shocked and promptly runs away.

Panic and chaos follow as the fatally injured politician is taken to hospital and the crowd start to scramble for the exits. Santoro takes charge of the investigation and works at high speed to try to discover the identity of the assassin before any efforts can be made to put someone else in charge. He watches T.V. and surveillance camera recordings and discovers amongst other things that the big fight was fixed. Along the way, the integrity of his investigation also becomes compromised when he colludes with Dunne to cover up his friend’s negligence.

Santoro’s efforts are eventually rewarded as he discovers who was behind the assassination and the associated conspiracy that involved using fraudulent data to secure lucrative government contracts. Further unexpected developments then follow which produce mixed results for Santoro.

Nicolas Cage is magnificent as the unscrupulous cop who has a gambling problem and thinks nothing of beating up and robbing a petty criminal so that he can use the money to place a bet on the big fight. Santoro routinely takes bribes and has no problem with being involved in cover-ups but finds that even he has to draw the line somewhere and in his case, he stops at murder. Cage makes the various aspects of Santoro’s character come to life with extraordinary conviction and energy in one of his best-ever performances. The supporting cast also provide fine performances but ultimately it’s the amazing contributions made by Cage and De Palma that make this movie so enjoyable to watch.
