Min Ji-suk runs a "ticket bar"where customers can purchase tickets for certain "services"in the town of Sokcho in Gangwon-do. She hires Miss Yang (Ahn So-young), Miss Hong (Lee Hye-young), and Se-young (Jeon Se-young) through the employment agency. Miss Yang and Miss Hong, who are well experienced in this type of business, are used to accepting propositions from customers. But Se-young, who is dating a college student named Min-su, rejects all requests for sexual favors. When Min-su professes to having problems with his tuition and finances, Se-young reassures him that she will procure the necessary funds for him. When the bar's clientele begins to dwindle because of Se-young, Ji-suk reprimands her severely. Se-young develops a close relationship with a Captain Pak and even allows him to sleep with her. She asks Captain Pak to find Min-su employment on a boat, but when Min-su comes to Sokcho for his new job, he sees how Se-young has been making her living. Shocked, he turns his back on the job and leaves. When he eventually returns to Sokcho, he scathingly denounces Se-young's morality and severs their relationship. Decades ago, Ji-suk had stumbled into the bar business in a desperate effort to support her husband, who was serving time in prison; she later left him voluntarily out of shame and moral degradation. Concerned that Se-young will end up with the same fate, Ji-suk asks Min-su to meet with her. She begs him not to abandon Se-young, but he flatly refuses. Ji-suk reacts by pushing Min-su into the sea, and suffers a mental breakdown that lands her in a psychiatric institution.
很难讲这是不是一部好电影，平庸的剧情，烂俗的情节，浮夸的表演，但是问题在于这都是导演想要的，配合上尼古拉斯凯奇近年的人设，讽刺的味道还是很重。也很难讲这是不是凯奇的翻身之作，因为他也不需要表演，因为这就是他自己的生活，这是一部只属于凯奇自己的电影，因为别人也演不了，凯奇的独特的人生造就了这部电影。
*更详细的影评，包含严重剧透：https://boxd.it/2Mxf55
看了这么多年MR.CAGE的好片和烂片之后，对其中的很多元素还真挺有共鸣的。
尼古拉斯·凯奇你已经快六十了，还在拍烂片，甚至用一部电影去讲述烂片演员翻身的故事，而这部电影本身也烂得可以。
Cagexploitation. Messing around is OK. But the final act is fucking stupid and cringe like hell. They break the character.
凯奇扮演凯奇致敬自己演过的动作片，设定有趣。电影内容一般般
最大的噱头当然是尼古拉斯凯奇在电影里演了尼古拉斯凯奇，整部电影恰似一场戏中戏，核心当然还是家庭、父女之间的和解。同样也是对尼古拉斯凯奇电影生涯的一场回顾，对粉丝来说，只要是凯奇的电影必然还是会继续看一下，虽然嘴上还是那句烂片，但是肯定希望他能come back！
我会一直喜欢看他演戏，就是这样的！
凯奇的粉丝电影，太精神病了，不过也太可爱了，虽说就是个爽片网大水平，但是确实凯奇从头到尾和红毒蛇的基情太浓郁了，笑到头疼
把CIA线砍掉，就演狂热粉丝和过气偶像叙旧喝酒，再把凯奇为了还债接过的烂片吐槽一顿就很好看了。
Nick fucking……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………whoa cage ~
原本以为是一出《低入尘埃》式的没落演员的自我剖析，最终却成了皆大欢喜的大俗套剧。
有点Adaptation的味道，但是剧本还是好单薄呀，按照固定的三幕剧程式按部就班地发展。Javi说要去悬崖边讨论剧本的第三幕的时候，电影也正好进入第三幕，好酷的叙述方式。说到底这是一部除了凯奇叔以外其他人谁演谁怪的电影。
Cagexploitation. Messing around is OK. But the final act is fucking stupid and cringe like hell. They break the character.
还行，但所有电影梗都让人回忆起当年凯奇的电影可是太他妈好看了。债还完了，真心希望能再创辉煌。 女儿的演员挺好看。
太爱了，连这种传统意义的BIAS都爱死了，哈哈，美国人看欧洲人总是有点疯的，欧洲人看美国人总是有点蠢的。其实没有特工那条线其实也挺可爱的，就是一个热爱电影的疯NEW MONEY追求兴趣爱好的事，哈哈
还不如再去看一遍空中监狱或者变脸亦或者勇闯夺命岛……
作为一个常年看影视同人文的人来说，这部片子给我的感觉大概就是尼古拉斯凯奇的粉丝写了一部偶像slash自己的RPS故事然后被偶像本人出演了，tag可能还会打上“真实背景”、“架空”、“粉丝行为勿上升蒸煮”等。我作为观众可能还想加一个“禁止套娃”。
凯奇新片，恭喜偶像还完了债，恭喜偶像重回主流商业片。但是，这部顶多只能算是普通正常的喜剧，谈不上回勇，因为和凯奇的那些经典之作，没法比。作为调侃喜剧，拿自己开涮，不够狠不够深刻犀利也不够放得开。整体值得一看，就是别抱太高期待。凯奇能不能回勇，还得看他的下一部作品
稍微有点遗憾，以为会有更多调侃凯奇的部分，虽然有但是还是差点意思。台词和镜头的致敬也不是很多，更多只是提一提凯奇之前电影的名字就完事儿了。不过凯奇的演技是真的不错，特别是那个精神分裂的凯奇，每次都非常有笑果。
