<<<SPoiLeRs>>>
the trailer made it seem like a light dark comedy where the story is more about cage keeping a normal life [his marrige] together
i loved how it wasnt anything what i thought, the opening sequence with the bullet alone made the movie awesome

Saw this last night. Was really good. I agree with Pyro the opening scene alone was worth the price of admission. Niccole did a great job of showing the mindset of an arms dealer.
Pyro, if you are looking for something similar but lighter try Deal Of The Century with Chevy Chase and Gregory Hines, it was more satire than reality and was directed by William Friedkin.

Excellent movie. Great story. It's hard to imagine anyone else playing the main guy other that Nick Cage. He's not the greatest actor around, but as a dramatic actor he's excellent. International arms dealers are some of the most dangerous and ruthless bastards on the face of this Earth. Nick Cage portrays that very well. The extra tragedy of his life adds an amazing twist to the story. It showcases that everything has it's price.
