It's nice to see Cage get through a movie without doing the thing he usually does, but _Looking Glass_ is pretty much a non-event. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._

Nothing anywhere near perfect, or even super logical, but I still enjoyed watching <em>'Looking Glass'</em>. It builds up the tension and darkness well, with the ghost town feel to everything. The cinematography, particularly the lighting, is rather nice. The premise and its execution, while intriguing, does have problems, but the two leads are fun to watch. Nicolas Cage (Ray) and Robin Tunney (Maggie) make for a good pairing, both give satisfactory performances. Marc Blucas is, I thought anyway, pretty decent in his role as Howard; though the writing does let his character down. Other negatives for the film include the average music and crappy opening credits. Overall though, I felt suitably entertained by this.
