    Finally!! This movie NEVER comes up but I absolutely love Peggy Sue Got Married (1986). Fucking classic and he’s great in it.

    Okay he’s not the lead but he’s like the main co-star.

    Love love love this movie

      I also remember it fondly but I’m not sure it would hold up nowadays… Have you watched it recently?

        Not that recently I’m afraid. But I remember that I was really curious how the story plays out and while it wasn’t groundbreaking it was a satisfying twist end.

        Not your regular Hollywood happy end.

    Face/Off. Golden desert eagles, Nic Cage at his cagiest, John Travolta and Nic Cage swapping bodies, legitimately great action scenes, and Nic Cage grabbing a woman’s ass while wearing a priest costume. Just an incredible movie.

    Lord of War

    Here’s the intro to Lord of War. I love the little smirk he pulls off at about 45s.

      by far the best movie he’s ever been involved with. Good performance too. Leaving Las Vegas is another good performance.

    The Rock and Con Air are tied for me. Con Air’s cast is star studded and Nic Cage with a southern accent is fantastic.
