I've not enjoyed some of his recent straight-to-dvd crime films at all. Or 'Knowing' (2009), that was hard to watch. I thought 'Sonny' (2002) which he directed was poor.

the first movie i saw with him was it could happen to you. and there he was 'Gilligan cute' as i call it. not a heartthrob but gentle and genial.
i loved that one and all the others i have seen him in have been mediocre compared. ICHTY is hardly mutiny on the bounty or gone with the wind but it is a cute enough movie.

Too low? I might could go 5, but no higher. The ending of The Sixth Sense is awesome, but without it, the movie is just average. It's still a good movie overall, but not better than the ones in my top 5, in my opinion. was he one of the ghosts??? |

Crap, I was doing the Bruce Willis list and the Nic Cage list at the same time. no worries. but, it is hard to be confused by the two in my eyes. |

I haven't seen Fast Times at Ridgemont High in a long time, but isn't Cage simply an extra in that?
Best -
Raising Arizona Wild at Heart
Leaving Las Vegas The Rock
Con Air Face/Off Bringing out the Dead
Adaptation
Matchstick Men Lord of War
Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
Worst -
Zandalee Ghost Rider
And I'll stop there for listing his worst because while I like Cage as an actor, he's made many terrible films. I really hope he can sort out his financial issues so he can focus on doing good projects again.

Am I the only one who isn’t impressed with him at all? There are 3 types of people.
1. The people who think he is awful
2. Everyone in between
3. The people who think he is a genius
