| CADILLAC MAN is not the first movie to revolve around a hostage situation, and it certainly won't be the last. Screenwriter Ken Friedman, however, has constructed a hostage crisis which transcends the usual Hollywood formulas and cliches. CADILLAC MAN puts a new spin on an old wheel by being the first hostage movie I can think of to feature a confused terrorist who doesn't know what he wants--a terrorist whose only demand is that the police "go away." The movie also adds the new twist of having its hero, Robin Williams, try to TALK his way out of the crisis rather than SHOOT his way out.
