...This movie pulls, emotionally as well as aesthetically. Sounds and colors of the sirens and streetlights are stretched out to a wail and a blur, and anguish tugs on every line of Cage's face. Many key scenes are cramped into the driver's seat and bloody siren lights stain the medics' faces. This gristly and sometimes hallucinatory style is not for every viewer's consumption.

They trade on your sense that the nation needs rescuing by a hero untainted by the stain of politics-as-usual ?- think Joan of Arc meets "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington." The quintessential White Knight is the "Man on the White Horse," who quits a successful military career (or professional sports or show business, in less compelling versions) for politics. The White Knight?s secret is to always appear unlike "the rest of them," forced by patriotic duty to enter politics and save the nation from...
