Face/Off is by far the best action movie ever. John Travolta and Nicholas Cage are the ultimate rivals in this blast-em-up thriller, and John Woo creates a stimulating movie with great choreography. His film techniques are excellent; the pigeons in the church, the flapping of Cage's jacket as steps outside, and a dozen other scenes... The story is just as good- there actually is one. It will be a long time before we see a movie that tops Face/Off.
