It's no denying that Nicolas Cage likes to have fun with the roles he chooses. When you look at it like that, it really works, but if you're looking for something note-worthy, you need to look elsewhere. Spending a night in Willy's Wonderland as his car is being fixed, this movie is strictly a film about a Janitor cleaning rooms and killing robots.

Nicolas Cage's character's car breaks down and the mechanic tells him he can get it fixed for free if he cleans this building and makes it ready to reopen. Willy's Wonderland is an old arcade/birthday party place that has been closed down, due to the fact that the mechanical robots inside all come to life and murder people. It opens with a very drab look and Nicolas Cage is revealed as the stoic cool guy (which is done incredibly over the top). Right off the bat, something felt off about this film.
There's nothing here but the novelty, but here's why it works. Am I going to recommend this one to mainstream audiences? Absolutely not, but if you know what to expect, I think you'll have a blast watching it as I did. Willy's Wonderland is a straight-up B-Movie and uses a heavy grindhouse feel to tell its story. If I don't end up praising the film for anything else, that's okay. It's the kind of film that's trying to do one thing and one thing alone Entertain people. It's hard to dive into a detailed review of a film like Willy's Wonderland.
