my top favorite nicolas cage movies.
nicolas cage is my favorite actor. although i do know he has done some horrible movies. and has done his share of stupid roles, and maybe some bad acting here and there. but i am still entertained by him. for the most part he puts out movies that are enjoyable to me. and for me it all started with, Face Off.
and lets clear up a few movies. 2 of my least favorite cage movies are bringing out the dead and moonstruck. vampires kiss is pretty bad too...
adaptation is a good movie. very artsy movie and i understand why people like it...but it's just not my type of movie.
fast times...really its not a nicolas cage movie. on the video i have the camera pans over him. i saw it on tv once and saw he had a spoken line in it and i was dumbfounded. i like the movie in general. but its not a cage movie and shouldnt be on this list.
