NIC CAGE: KICK ASS OR SNAKE EYES?


"The Cage" has been a guilty pleasure for us all the last three decades, but has our National Treasure gone too far?  Not to mention his current picture Season of the Witch, in which Nic Cage plays Behmen a crusader in charge of  transporting a girl accused of being a witch.  Really?  We all know Nic Cage can play a falling down drunk in Vegas, or a moral Police Officer with a winning lottery ticket, but a church crusader battling demons in medieval times?  I don't think so.  I mean don't get me wrong Nicolas Cage CAN act, and HAS won TWO Oscars.  BUT, his Oscars were for his painful roles in National Treasure and Ghost Rider...

  I mean what happened to the classics?  H.I. said it best, "There's what's right and there's what's right and never the twain shall meet."  But can we really forgive him wasting so much of our time the last 15 years? But again, Raising Arizona was a REALLY good movie.  Soo good...
Could Cage's flailing career be attributed to his relationship with his third wife?  Its obvious Cage has TYF (The Yellow Fever) for marrying a Korean waitress, but Cage digs his own grave with their newborn.  Nic and Alice named their 5 year old son Kal-El after Superman's birth name.  Really?  If I were Nic Cage I would have named him Natahan JR!  In addition, suicide rates have increased 15% after hearing about Cage's 2012 release of ANOTHER Ghostrider and National Treasure 3 (No joke).  Possibly these crap-movies are due to Cage owing over 14 million dollars to the IRS.  Well lets just hope Cage gets his career back on track before he's "Broke in 60 seconds."  However as always, I have a solution to take us all back to the glory days of Con Air, The Rock and Face Off (debatable). The answer is:  QUIT MAKING DUMB MOVIES!
  


In a nutshell.
In closing, you're Nicolas Cage and no one can ever take that away from you, but I'm going to have to give you a 6/10 on the acting paradigm, for now...  But seriously, STOP IT NIC CAGE!  SERIOUSLY!
