![]() Nude, breasts, bush, butt 00:30:20 Nic Cage multitasks, shooting bad guys and screwing Charlotte Ross in a hotel room. He responds, "I never disrobe before a gunfight," and then all hell breaks loose. Cage gets busy with waitress Charlotte Ross-from NYPD Blue-who questions why his clothes are still on when all of hers are off. 27 minutes in, Cage and his traveling companion Amber Heard stop for the night at a roadhouse bar and motel called Bull by the Balls-the film is nothing if not subtle.
