Not watching trailers has infinite pros. From going into the theater without a visual clue about what's going to be seen on the big screen to the ability to avoid spoilery clips that ruin supposedly surprising moments, this is a methodology I've been strictly employing in my life. So far, I've had nothing but spectacular screenings. Watch...

Pig is a drama and thriller. The story is real, authentic, touching, and emotional. Such Individual movies are known as "Cinema" and are the building blocks of the Hollywood Industry. Such movies aren't considered worthy of watching and praising just because they don't belong from a Franchise or Studio. I love watching such movies but...

With this starring Nic Cage, you would think it'll be a thriller with the same vibe of <I>John Wick</I>...and you would be sorta right. This movie was a drama first and thriller second as we go on a journey for the main character's (Rob) pig while we explored the past of Rob and Amir's lives. There was no graphic violence, no cage ra...

A great performance from Nicolas Cage. The story was engaging in the first half of the movie and then sort of dissipates into a search.

We have waited quite a log time for this, but finally we have a film from Nicolas Cage ("Rob") into which he appears to have put some effort - and it works. He lives in the wilderness with his truffle hunting pig. Remote and isolated, his only contact with the outside world is when he meets his dealer "Amir" (Alex Wolff) who swaps the fun...

That'll do. <em>'Pig'</em> is a good film, made very good by its conclusion - which threw me, to be honest. I wasn't, up until that moment, overly invested in the story, but when the reality hits home I actually felt my stomach sink for Nicolas Cage's Robin - unexpected! Cage does put in a neat display, I enjoyed his performance thr...

On the surface _Pig_ is a basic story of a man on the search for his lost pig, but underneath the initial layer is a deep and compelling character study on love and loss. In the beginning, Rob and Amir start off as distant business partners, with not much relationship other than their weekly transaction. As the film unfolds, the audien...

Some people mention too slow for them. This film is a modern tone poem (complete with appropriate sound track) about deep love and deep loss. It clocks in at only an hour and a half, and I've thought long and hard about it: I call the pacing methodical, not slow. There's an awful lot of information being conveyed here, and virtually none ...
