The sea underworld is shaken up when the son of the shark mob boss is found dead and a young fish named Oscar is found at the scene. Being a bottom feeder, Oscar takes advantage of the situation and makes himself look like he killed the finned mobster. Oscar soon comes to realize that his claim may have serious consequences.
No es la mjor película que he visto del estilo, pero bueno... de algún modo Nicolas Cage no acaba de encajar con el personaje, pero cuando le prendían fuego y aparecía la calavera, era todo perfecto.
Por cierto, el tema principal de la película es "Ghost Riders in the Sky", interpretado por "Spiderbait":
Sólo por la escena de los dos Ghost Riders con ésa música merece la pena verla.
Ghost Riders in the Sky - Spiderbait An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
Yippie yi Ohhhhh Yippie yi yaaaaay Ghost Riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat He's riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet 'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky On horses snorting fire As they ride on hear their cry
As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies
Yippie yi Ohhhhh Yippie yi Yaaaaay
Ghost Riders in the sky Ghost Riders in the sky Ghost Riders in the sky
Hm... ya puestos con los Henson y marionetas... otra 'joya' del cine...
Si la ves más de una vez te preguntas cómo alguien se pudo molestar en hacer tantos decorados tan complicados para tan pocos segundos...
Menos mal que ahora se hace todo por ordenador... esto tuvo que tardar una eternidad. Cuanto más rápido se generan los datos, antes pueden ser absorbidos. Sí... esa es la esencia de todo... ah... que divago.
En otro mundo, en otro tiempo, en el borde de la fantasía... blah, blah, blah... ya lo sabéis: mirar ésta película será vuestro cometido. Tenéis una semana para hacerlo, mortales.
Es una de las películas que todo miserable ser que se arrastra por el barro debe ver para poder tan siquiera considerar pedir permiso para ser persona.
