Nicholas Hoult was great; in a role which didn't really needed much, he created a personality that was not similar but also not quite different from what we've seen from him.
Nicolas Cage, while also not something we've never seen him before, but he looked like he was having the time of his life playing Dracula.
Everyone else - Awkwafina, Ben Schwartz, Shohreh Aghdashloo - were themselves.
The premise definitely was fun, but it got stale by the time we reached the end of act two. And while it's a dark comedy, there just wasn't enough comedy as a whole. And it's unfortunate because, had this been a much better movie, we would think more fondly of Cage in this role.
