"I'm not even gonna describe this week's movie. It's called Bangkok Dangerous, it stars Nic Cage, and this is the movie poster," James said, grabbing the poster off his desk. "Is it stupid? Yes. Is it the good kind of stupid? Nope! It's just all kinds of horrible. Don't worry. I like you guys and you'll get good-bad Cage next week."

Summary: (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814022/plotsummary?ref_=tt_stry_pl)

Joe, an international hit man who follows a simple code, arrives in Bangkok for his last contract - four kills and then retirement. He hires Kong, a local street hustler, to run his errands, and he gets to work. By the second hit, Joe has started violating his four rules, losing his anonymity, leaving behind traces, and getting emotionally involved. Only one rule remains intact: don't ask questions. Can Joe regain his footing and get out alive?

The only thing keeping Flick's focus was the action. Every time Nicolas Cage and his awful hair appeared, he tuned everything out.
