A once-in-a-lifetime great idea of combining two of the strangest American movie stars at the peak of their interest in exaggerated experimentation, giving them a legitimately deranged sci-fi melodrama spec script involving literally wearing each other like a skinsuit…

My favorite thing about this film and, trust me, I have a lot of favorite things about it, is that Woo actually got Travolta to say the fine line, "Well, think about me. This nose. This hair. This ridiculous chin."

Some families hug, some families kiss, and some families just rub their hands on each others faces.

Nicolas Cage and John Travolta switch faces and spend almost two and a half hours trying to kill each other. This is a five star movie.
