Watched The Grand Budapest Hotel last night.
Offbeat, quirky, charming. Really enjoyed it and can't wait to watch it again. 8/10

FROZEN GROUND.

A sedated Nic Cage goes up against John Cusack's serial killer in this pretty good film based on true events. However the real star of the film is Vanessa Hudgens of "High School Musical" fame as a jailbait hooker who manages to balance vulnerable, tough and sexy with conviction. As ex HSM stars go I still favour Zac Efron getting pissed upon by Nicole Kidman in "The Paperboy", which oddly enough also had Cusack as a killer.

I watched it based on your review on here. Yeah, Cage is very good, he manages to do these type of semi paternal roles very well.

Its easy to forget that Cage CAN be a good actor. Raising Arizona, Leaving Las Vegas, Wild at heart, Frozen ground, Rumble fish.

He just seems to pad these roles out with turns playing bug eyed weirdos and panto acting.

Not that that's always a bad thing. I still really dig vampires kiss.
