The Trust (2016)
6/10
Surprisingly solid
2 July 2022
As far as low-budget, small scale 2010s Nic Cage movies go, this was surprisingly solid.

It's the kind of heist movie you've probably seen a bunch of times before, but Elijah Wood and Nic Cage make for a good duo that elevate the material. Cage's character is wildly unpredictable and hard to read, but it works in the film's favour, as otherwise I think this would 100% drag during its sort of underwhelming second half.

But there's a shot near the end in a car that's really cool? So it's not like it fizzles out completely. And overall, I'm really just thankful this was a decent time and more than watchable, because as much as I love Cage, some of his other 2010s movies are tough to get through.
