Hotel manager Marcus Winter is awaiting an important visitor to the Emirates Palace Hotel.His long-time friend – the representative of a big tour operator – should be arriving soon to inspect the hotel.But instead of his friend, it’s a new inspector that comes – Sarah Riems, whose ideas concerning the needs of hotel guests greatly differ from those of Marcus.Trying to impress Sarah with the distinctive flair of his hotel, Marcus makes a grand presentation, emphasizing the spectacular regional cuisine and even taking the inspector on several trips into the breathtaking desert. Still, it looks like a hard sell…At the same time, Anna, the hotel’s decorator, excitedly awaits the arrival of visitors of her own - her pen-pal Max and his friend Holger. Although Max and Anna have only once briefly met, his extremely romantic letters have filled her heart with passion.Once her guests are settled in the hotel though, it becomes quickly obvious to Anna that the Max who had inspired such a love in her through his letters is much different than the one she now sees before her.It’s the artistic Holger who is presently stirring her desire, which leads to a growing rivalry between the two men that strains their friendship.Meanwhile, the single mother Renate and her son Tobias have traveled to the hotel for a dream holiday. Soon, Renate’s real reason for the trip to Dubai surfaces - she wants Tobias to become acquainted with his father, who operates boat tours for the hotel guests – and who doesn’t even know his son exists…
致敬自己，嘲讽自己，对话自己，审视自己，接纳自己。凯奇的演艺生涯不可谓不传奇，也不可谓不曲折。因为辉煌过，所以更需要勇气面对跌落神坛后的不堪。作为观众如果喜欢曾经那个熠熠生辉的凯奇，在吐槽多年烂片王的如今，看完本片也请接受这个迟暮的凯奇吧。虽然本片的剧本依旧···一般。【三星半】
真的是顽梗玩到飞起 导演不是凯奇的铁粉都写不出这个剧本 基本把凯奇重要的电影都致敬了一遍 连《曼蒂》都带到了 一次次突破次元壁 分不清这到底是电影剧情还是凯奇真实生活 另外就是真的别让帕斯卡再演傻子了 真的太像了 你可是红毒蛇呀
台词好几次说他又回来了，尼古拉斯凯奇总要接一句，从没过气过。[哈哈]但他要重回巅峰谈何容易，靠这一部电影肯定不行，但至少他回到主流制作了吧，其实他去年主演的《猪》就相当不错了，算一个好的开始。
剧情很花哨。要是认认真真拍一部凯奇的纪录片可能更好看
又扯淡又好玩。尼古拉斯凯奇好可爱哈哈哈哈哈哈
看到1/3时我以为从他下船后就是在拍电影，那种主角不知晓真实剧本的情况下，随性演绎。结果后面还加了一个帮CIA搞间谍活动，营救妻子女儿的剧情，我觉得有些“天马行空”。总体来说还是不错，让你能会心一笑，也理解一些东西。
加一颗星纯属是因为...这可是尼古拉斯·凯奇啊喂！
这？用力过度？不如让漫威再翻个恶灵骑士？不过漫威也不会请凯奇演。。。
没想要还挺好看哈哈哈哈哈希望凯奇叔越来越好
充满着自娱精神和对电影的调侃，凯奇绝对是天才演员
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈其实做的事是薇诺娜在黑天鹅，鸟人，摔跤王做的那些事，调侃自己的过气并消费剥削它获得电影媒介自反，but那些都有表达有深度，这个真的除了调侃啥也不剩（竟然有点像扬名立万，那种烂片质感）但还是获得了快乐浅及格吧
比预期中低了不少，但是最后一戏中戏，又扳回一点点。。。
从电影套娃式结构来看，凯奇也一直希望想演绎一部翻身佳作来重归好莱坞一线。年轻凯奇与中年凯奇的对撞中也说明了这一个天一个地心灵的差异，不过电影没有深挖其中的矛盾点，不然破产之痛一类的话题也是很有意思的。
西班牙，福尔托尔角悬崖，一起入戏一起跳崖
凯奇用凯奇的故事拍（演）了一部很凯奇的电影。
影片中规中矩，但是也能看出尼古拉斯凯奇真得尽力了，是有诚意的！一管自我安慰剂，一锅对影迷情怀的鸡汤！

有点失望，并不是为凯奇量身打造的剧本，换个演员改改剧情依然没差。
nick motherfucking cage宇宙的“复仇者联盟”吧。用戏中戏中戏中戏亦真亦幻地拍了一个小块都是Klischee但整体结构很新颖的优质商业片。红毒蛇演得太好了，那小表情能艳压cage了。
A great comeback of a great actor by his nouveau shamanic instinct.
