Face/ Off
Year of release: 1997
Director: John Woo
Stars: John Travolta, Nicolas Cage, Joan Allen
Tagline: In order to catch him, he must become him.
Why We Like It: Erm, what’s not to like? We think that this is John Woo’s best American movie. Twin gun mayhem, killer script, slo-mo photography, quick-fire editing and doves!!!
The Best Bit: Over the Rainbow? Violence seen through the eyes of a child…
Trivia: According to the mighty IMDB, originally Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone were in mind to play the lead roles, but when John Woo was brought in to direct, he decided that John Travolta and Nicolas Cage would be more suited to the roles.
