Sonny (2002)

Rate: 5
Viewed: 7/05

7/05: Directed by Nicolas Cage, Sonny is an okay movie.

It works well during the first hour but falls apart in the final thirty minutes. Not exactly like American Gigolo, the plot is interesting but weak. The cast is average.

James Franco's acting needs more polish. He's either high, drunk, or plain Chinese in some scenes. On the other hand, Nicolas Cage makes a cameo just to say, "Hi."

All in all, there's potential in Nicolas Cage's fledgling directorial career, and the superlative actor should've belt out a couple more of films to see if he's any good at it.
