Movie review - "Snake Eyes" (19998) ****

 Really fun De Palma crime film that never got its due. Full of show-y off-y direction and it's marvelous. On watching it a second time the plot doesn't really hold up - I mean, it's fine (an assassination is a conspiracy), it's just once it's done, there's not a lot of character interaction to keep involved. Maybe if we'd seen Nicolas Cage's wife.

But I loved its energy and Cage suits De Palma world.
