Nick Cage

SvilleKid · 11-23-2010, 10:37 PM

Just watched a little bit of Bangkok Dangerous. Seriously..... Has Nicolas Cage made a move worth watching in the last 10 years?? I just can't see him as a tough-guy. Just doesn't work in my mind, somehow.

Bill86 · 11-23-2010, 10:41 PM

hmmm I enjoyed the National treasure movies, lord of war was great, matchstick men was a very decent flick, kick ass was great. I didn't mind bangkok dangerous or bad lieutenant or weatherman. I've always been a cage fan though.

What movies of his are you seeing?

Now ghost rider was awful, so was wicker man...next and the world trade center movie weren't that great either.

IMO he's been 60 / 40 in favor of hit movies this past 10 years.

But he has made some serious TURDS.

Every I have ever seen him in all I can think of is...

Just saw the Bad Lieutenant flick a couple days ago....I liked Cage back in the day, but that was some of the worst acting I have seen in a long while. Seemed like maybe it wasn't just his character that had a substance abuse problem.

Wouldn't surprise me, wasn't his first substance abuse movie. (Leaving Las Vegas, which was FANTASTIC by the way)

Now THAT was a great performance! Bad LT....not so much.

Bill86 · 11-23-2010, 11:20 PM

Agreed, it was watchable but that was about it. Leaving Las Vegas....AWESOME and I think that would be a fantastic way to go.

There's about 500 women I'd love to tag team with Elizabeth Shue. Maybe a British chick their accents....

I think you would be too tired after 385 of them.

That's a chance I'd definitely be willing to take.

Nick Cage is a very bad actor IMHO, but he's had some decent movies lately. Kick Ass was awesome.

Kreth · 11-24-2010, 07:28 AM

I really thought after Cage was cast as Ghost Rider, they should have animated him with receding flames...

I like him in some things... My wife is a huge fan and we argue about his acting and hotness all the time!

But then again... she married me so what does that tell you???

cricky101 · 11-24-2010, 07:36 AM

He's one actor I really can't stand to watch. Every time I see him all I hear is his HORRIBLE accent from "Con-Air." Shudder ...

I thought "Knowing" was ok.

and what in the world is Bad Lieutenant: Port of call New Orleans? A sequel?

Harvey Keitel would be spinning in his grave, if he were dead.
