I have a little bit of free time, so I decided to do a quick movie review for Matchstick Men. It stars Nicholas Cage and Sam Rockwell as a pair of conmen. Rockwell's character is your standard slick-talking conman while Cage's is a psychological mess of tics and obsessive-compulsiveness. Rockwell wants to do the big con while Cage wants to keep making a decent living on small-time scams. With his troubles, he's not even sure if he can pull off the big con. Then, a daughter he didn't know he had comes into his life. He also decides to do the big con. The three storylines are handled as well as can be and the acting is top notch. Sam Rockwell has been great in everything I've seen him in. (I tend to not acknowledge one movie entirely.) He was good in supporting roles in The Green Mile and Galaxy Quest and now he has moved up to bigger roles. Nicholas Cage was essentially Nicholas Cage. And the ending doesn't cheat. I definitely recommend it.
