8mm is an uncompromising tour de force of a world one would like to believe does not exist. Beginning with a simple enquiry to determine the authenticity of a snuff film, established investigator Tom Welles (Cage) is thrust deep into a seedy world of pornography, sado masochism, and murder all within the deepest recesses of LA and New York's soulless underbellies. Beginning as a missing persons case, Cage soon changes direction and requests the help of pornography store clerk Joaquin Phoenix. At this point the descent into hell really begins, though from the outset of the film one is able to discern that it has an air of the ungodliness about it. Undoubtedly Cage's performance reinforces the sense of bleakness and desperation in the film. As the film begins, Cage appears to be little more than a mild mannered, somewhat shy private investigator, but as he descends deeper into the investigation he is faced with a dark epiphany, whether he has the strength to kill in this tale of vigilante justice. Extra credit must be given to the direction, as the whole cinematography, score, and setting create a real sense of film noir in a bleak modern setting. Last but not least, the DVD package compliments it quite well with equally dark menu artwork, decent featurettes and star profiles. Definitely among my top ten movies ever, a totally unforgettable and thought provoking film and one of the best thrillers of the past ten years.Read full review
this is a brilliant nic cage film if you have,nt seen it give it a go great story,quite a hard film to find now which is why i was plesed to find it on ebay,i have looked for it in a lot of shops to no avail and found it on ebay for a great price..
very good film, Nicolas Cage does it again and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Disturbing has he uncovers the seedy world of pornography and the effects of how those with the powers stoop so low and the vulnerable are the victims. With moody determination, Cage uncovers this gruesome world to crack the case. Be prepared to be glued to your set.....
Initially I bought this because I am a huge fan of Nicolas Cage and hadn't seen it. It is an amazing film, however disturbing! Nicolas Cage and Joaquin Phoenix are fantastic. Although this isn't my kind of movie,I'm more of a romcom kinda gal, it is undoubtably well directed and well acted by all the cast. Definitely worth a look!
