Oh trust me, we will have a review of every Nicolas cage movie eventually.

Cage is a great actor. He just gets a bad rep because of the fact that he'll do anything for money. Hence Ghost Rider and The Sorcerer's Apprentice, when he has the talent for Leaving Ls Vegas and Adaptation. Also, Con Air was sweet.

He really is a good actor, I've had a hard time separating his horrendous movies from his great ones, but you're right that it was about money. Apparently he got himself in to some tax trouble and a guy has to do what he has to do to get by. His character H.I McDunnough in Raising Arizona is excellent. I'd like to see him work with the Coen brothers again.
