Additional Information

Roy Waller (Nicolas Cage) is a conman and trickster who has had to overcome enormous problems with obsessive-compulsive disorder in order to stay on top of his game. His partner in crime, Frank Mercer (Sam Rockwell), helps him run a daily business conning housewives out of their money with telephone scams. Frank is frustrated with their small-fry clientele however, and urges Roy to look for bigger business ventures. Roy resists Frank's urges, and instead leads a bizarre existence in which he is completely dominated by his compulsions to clean, eat canned tuna every night, and open his front door three times before he can walk through it. His world is turned upside down, however, when he starts seeing a shrink who helps Roy to get in touch with his missing 14-year-old daughter, Angela (Alison Lohman). Angela soon becomes embroiled in Roy and Frank's scams, pushing Roy to take on a grandiose scheme that could give them financial security for the rest of their lives.<BR>Directed by Ridley Scott, this fast-paced crime drama takes several twists and turns as it works its way towards a surprising conclusion. Cage is perfectly cast as the con artist beset by neuroses and family problems, and has an excellent foil in the younger, more abrasive Rockwell. Weaving a tale of trust, family, friendship and deceit, director Scott utilises the talents of his actors to delve into complicated themes, resulting in a breathtaking film in which nothing can be taken for granted.

unexpectedly a good film
To me a 3/5 rating is a good thing, it's in between being better or worse which in my eyes equals a decent film to watch once and that one time only. This is exactly what I think of the Matchstick Men. I watched it in the theatre and I admired the twist at the end that makes us realize the filmmaker has been coning his audience throughout the film. I thought it would be good enough to buy on DVD, and especially when I had it on ex-rental for £3.00! It wasn't as good the second time around and made me glad I paid not that much for it. It's a worthy rental but it isn't something worth buying unless you can get it for roughly the same price as you would pay to rent it. You will never guess what the great twist at the end is, it tries to act the same throughout the movie trying to give us the ... To me a 3/5 rating is a good thing, it's in between being better or worse which in my eyes equals a decent film to watch once and that one time only. This is exactly what I think of the Matchstick Men.

I thought it would be good enough to buy on DVD, and especially when I had it on ex-rental for £3.00! It wasn't as good the second time around and made me glad I paid not that much for it. It's a worthy rental but it isn't something worth buying unless you can get it for roughly the same price as you would pay to rent it. You will never guess what the great twist at the end is, it tries to act the same throughout the movie trying to give us the jolts and turns of every character trying to make us realize something unexpected about them. They do a good job of casting the performers for the part, especially Nicholas Cage perfectly portraying a paranoid con man that finds out he has a daughter and teaches her the tricks of the trade. Like I said, the acting is strong, maybe the dialogue can get a bit worn away from time-to-time and as you watch it the second time around you will realize all the clues they try to give you with the dialogue then sounding a bit cheesy. But we can overlook that since they don't give it away the first time viewing. About three quarters through the film it starts getting a little over the limit of being as dramatic as it has before. It will make you think it is going into some kind of supernatural zone but I assure you that you will appreciate it when it all comes together right at the end. There are some comedic moments but nothing that will make you smile or laugh, you can just tell it was a joke and it was meant to make you laugh. This is more of a drama than anything else but still has the entertainment as what a popcorn film has. I'm making it sound like it's a serious film, and in some parts it is, but the script makes it enjoyable enough and evenly spreads out not for you to think too much about it. But bear in mind that you need to focus on it throughout the film to understand the twist at the end. It has some good camera work thanks to the direction of Ridley Scott. You have to watch this once, but make sure you know exactly that you will watch this again if you bought it.

Roy (Nicholas Cage) and Frank are con artists and between them they enjoy a successful business partnership. However, Roy's private life is not so hot and he is forced to seek help from a psychoanalyst who encourages him to seek out the fourteen-year-old daughter whose existence he has always suspected but never confirmed. On meeting Angela he begins a relationship he never dreamed of but Angela starts to develop an interest in her father's 'career'. I loved this film as it is something different, no sex scenes, nobody using massive guns shooting everyone in sight and the acting is superb. I love Nicholas Cage and he doesn't let you down in this film, there is a twist to the tale and near the end you feel sorry for him, even though he is a crook.

I love Nicholas Cage and he doesn't let you down in this film, there is a twist to the tale and near the end you feel sorry for him, even though he is a crook. As Roy he has O.C.D., and how he remembers to keep "ticking" the way he does is amazing and he actually studied people to see how they cope with life, how they bodily "tick", and how the disease impacts on the Person's life. The film has you glued to your seat, and at the end, I felt like I had seen a really good movie and can't wait to see it again. I always judge "A Good Film", by wether I can watch it over and over again and not actually get fed up with it, and Matchstick Men has this. The film is actually believeable, I would certainly recommend it, Im so glad I have it in my dvd Collection.
