Nicolas Cage: is he reallly a bad actor? Or is he a so-so actor who gets cast in a whole lot of really dumb movies?

Exhibit A: Face/Off, which is a really dumb movie wherein Nicolas Cage plays John Travolta and John Travolta plays Nicolas Cage,* allows us to measure his performance directly against a known-terrible control.

Discuss.

    I like Cage. I think he's accepted some really terrible scripts in recent years though.
    And Face/Off is one of my favorite movies!

    Face Off was a great Movie, what are you talking about? That being said I haven't seen him in a movie in a long time. I like him because he brings that odd ball sense to a movie, I love that one I forget the name of it when he is at Alcatraz.

    In Terms of Acting I have to admit most Actors are Bad. Yes You Heard me say it most actors are bad. Let me explain that think of any big name actor.................. Think of every movie you have seen them in or a preview even ............... Now think of how they talk and give lines ............................
    (dots are supposed to give you time to think)
    Guess what every actor (ok most) all sounded and looked the same. If you like or don't like an actor you like the way they hold them selves and talk and all their manierisms if you don't like someone you don't like them for the same reason.

    You Can't blame that on the actors only though. Most movies have actors play themsleves playing a character. Yes there are some exceptions but that is pretty much true most of the time.
