We are already used to watching the Oscar winner Nicolas Cage in unusual roles, as well as the fact that for every good movie he makes two or even three bad ones. We don't know yet where we would place the comedy Army of One, in which he goes on the hunt for Osama Bin Laden at the request of God, but something tells us that the film, in which Cage is a modern Don Quixote, will positively surprise.
Although it is Nicolas Cage a top film actor, he had quite a few hiccups in his career. Army of One it's not, although you might get that feeling at first, since the film doesn't have a ton of special effects and Cage plays an odd character, handy but unemployed by Gary Fualkner, an ex-convict who he believes that God (Russel Brand) sent him on a mission (asking him for a favor in his vision), to capture Osama bin Laden. And when God asks you to do something, you do it.

Modern Don Quixote So Fualkner is on a mission from God, who is leading him to Pakistan, where armed with one sword becomes a real attraction and the target of ridicule. In this case, Cage is not the same Cage from Alcatraz, but rather a clumsy man who no one takes seriously. He directed the film Larry Charles, who has already signed the film Borate, so you know roughly where the movie taco is going.
To make everything even more bizarre, she inspired the film a real person, self-proclaimed the bin Laden hunter, who, after he was arrested in 2010, Pakistani police said they laughed at him when he told them he wanted to kill the then-most-wanted terrorist. He was armed with a pistol, sword and night vision equipment.
