Another fun, violent and quite eccentric film from the Coen Brothers, Raising Arizona finds Nicholas Cage playing the same deadpan chump character he always plays. This time, he’s a redneck who has a certain penchant for finding trouble. Unfortunately he’s usually too stupid to get himself out of it again. When he and his police officer wife (played by Holly Hunter) can’t have children themselves, they decide to steal someone else’s baby. Hilarity, violence, and crime ensue. You’ll want to go along for the ride with this four on our flamescale.
