We are talking about Hollywood, as James Garvin says, and not Bergman.
In the end, this type of film doesn't get unanimous praise but divided critique.
Borderline films are almost the most fascinating since they polarize....
Follow Ups:
Is not a film with this kind of budget and with Cage starring something more mainstream than borderline?
Although thinking about how, for example, some of George Clooney's films are considered, then I guess I might be in disagreement with many over these definitions!
I find Cage a bit like Bill Murray... they seem to be so uninvolved in the films that I find them hard, not to like, but to be interested in.
I had thought of making a double bill with L.O.W. and Jarhead but am now glad I didn't.
..the film itself was marginal but simply that the effect produced on people was 'borderline' - the film itself I think is neither Hollywoodian nor a completely marginal film.
Certainly, it flopped in the US because of it's stance so I wouldn't call it 'mainstream', either.
I didn't see Jarhead but maybe they would make a good double bill...
Ok, now I see what you mean.
Do you think it flopped because of its politics?
It might just have been because its not much good!
