Worst Nicolas Cage movie I've ever seen. I usually like his non-Hollywood indies of the last few years, because they are always at least interesting, but this one is not interesting in any way. The Retirement Plan comes across as a patchwork of sequences with no unifying tone, style, or perhaps even creative intent. Tim Brown doesn't seem to know what he's making, or that he's supposed to be making anything at all. He takes a favourite fast-edit sequence from Guy Ritchie, he tries for a futile seaside soap opera, a multi-layered thriller full of surprises, and a would-be buddy movie comedy. How someone with such negative talent value gets such an ensemble cast is beyond me.
