I liked the surreal feel of the movie and the symbolism in it. Plus Nick Cage was brilliant in it. Thanks for the recommendations. I've only seen Eternal Sunshine among them, but I love that movie as well.

From those movies, pig was quite good. And of course all the older ones since he was in his prime back then.

My favorite movie with him is Con Air.

Interesting, I'll check them out. Looks like I've pretty much not seen any of his movies except for national treasure and Next

Good thing you posted here! Otherwise how would you have ever heard of the obscure genius of Nicholas Cage?

It is true to some extent though. I've only ever seen him as meme material, so my perspective was skewed against him when I think of good movies. I'm not a native English speaker, so I didn't grow up watching a lot of English movies, so I haven't watched many 80s and 90s English movies.

Do u guys have IMDb over there?

Yeah but there's no Nic Cage movie in the top lists

When looking for hidden gems, one would do well to ignore “top” lists.
