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.
“Put the Bunny back in the box.”
Nobody move or the bunny gets it!
You’re god damn right with that opinion
How in the actual fuck has no one said Face/Off?
That was Travolta playing both roles
Haha lore-wise very true.
Raising Arizona
“The color from outer space”
His slow descent into madness is great. It’s like him turning the Cage knob very slowly from 0 to 11.
Also imo the best Lovecraft adaption.
Edit: “Color out of Space” is the correct title. Thanks to the commenter below.

You might have misremembered the title there.
Absolutely, yes. Thank you for the correction!
No problem, just wanted to make sure people can find it because it’s a good one.
This movie is so fucking good because of him! I honestly want him to do more lovecraft stuff.
Superman.
Wait…
Another vote for Raising Arizona, although it is a close tie with Wild at Heart.
Let’s go dancin’ peanut!
Mandy. It’s a balls to the wall thrill ride of psychedelic mayhem. Oh and amazing soundtrack.
Seconded. I show this movie to all of my friends that haven’t seen it and they’re always blown away by his performance in that. The bathroom scene is the best.
Edit: spoilers I guess
Which: Moonstruck
Why: Mostly this scene.
My wife and I watched Moonstruck for the first time and when she saw Cage her reaction was: “that’s Nic Cage? Wtf he’s so hot!” If you were Cher which brother would you choose? We all know it’s Cage
I love “Matchstick Men.” Great plot. Fun characters. Chef’s kiss Cage freak-out towards the end.
Con Air … why? No clue, I would have thought I’d go with Lord of War, but Con Air immediately popped into my head when I read the question, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The Rock. Peak cage, Connery being great, and an amazing setting.
Con Air and Con Air
Ghost rider, for the mayhem and lots of fire everywhere!
Does Kickass count?
The Rock and National Treasure
