Fuck right off. He is great in The Pig. He is great in Dream Scenario.

He is MAGNIFICENT in Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. He is playing Nick Cage after all.

Nick has had a great comeback recently. And I love it.

He was awesome in Face Off. Never knew he could pull off such a great John Travolta. I almost thought they just switched the roles between the two actors. Though John Travolta's Nick Cage was kinda weird.

Agreed, whether people like him or not, it doesn’t take away from him being a great actor.

He was great in Adaptation. Strange film meets strange actor, a perfect match.

I'm trying to find a quote but essentially John Travolta didn't know how to approach this movie and then he saw Nic Cage being, well, Nic Cage and he was like, 'oh it's that kind of movie'.

The weather man? I think he fit very well. Same for Lord of War. I know they are both 20 years old, but still.

Those two movies were fantastic. Army of One is another great.

I thought he was great and very believable as a dork in Peggy Sue Got Married.
