The Surfer

By Leo Gura - June 8, 2025

I just watched this recent Nick Cage film. It’s a kind of surreal psychological thriller.

Is it good? It’s hard to say. It’s extremely WEIRD and very surreal. Unlike anything I’ve seen. It’s very specific. Not for everyone. Only if you want to watch something weird and you love Nick Cage. But it’s well made and to me it was worth it because it’s so unique that it’s fascinating. You have no idea what’s coming next. At this point in my life I need films that are smart and offer something different than mainstream blockbusters. So here we are. I appreciate that Nick Cage is still doing interesting and creative work.

There are some excellent examples of gaslighting in this film.
