Piles on the foreign accents and paint-by-numbers brutality, all served up with a grim, operatic self-seriousness that gives Cage's antihero little room to maneuver.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Cage may not always be easy on the eyes, but at his best, you can't turn away from him, because you never really know what he'll do next. But here, the actor plays it drab and dour.
There isn't an original frame or line of dialogue in Rage.
It's hard to say this is the worst film Nicolas Cage has ever made - there are just too many contenders to choose from. But it's near the bottom.
Rage is so full of cliche, convention and just plain odd narrative choices that it can't get out of its own way.
