Nicolas Cage is now rich, famous, and eccentric enough that he pretty much only does movies he wants to do now. But he apparently has bad taste in movies, because I don’t know that I can name the last Nic Cage movie I actually liked.

Bangkok Dangerous wasn’t exactly a bad movie, but it wasn’t a good movie either. The romantic plot made very little sense, the action plot was formulaic, with a natural set up for a sequel I hope they never make.

Once upon a time, seeing Nic Cage’s name on a movie wasn’t an instant turn off.
