Nicolas Cage delivers a characteristically intense performance as Frank Walsh in the action-thriller 'Primal'. As a seasoned big-game hunter, Cage's Walsh is a man of few words but of decisive action, embodying a rugged, weathered presence that suits the film's gritty tone. His portrayal strikes a balance between the hardened mercenary and a man with a moral compass, showcasing Cage's ability to imbue even the most archetypal roles with a unique blend of ferocity and vulnerability.
