National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets [2007]

starring: Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Jon Voight, Helen Mirren, Harvey Keitel
directed by: Jon Turteltaub

June 02, 2008
National Treasure: Book of Secrets is everything a big budget adventure sequel should be. A bigger story and better action help make Book of Secrets a surprising crowd pleaser.

Setting out to clear his ancestor's name, Ben Gates is back in treasure-hunting action to unequivocally prove that his family had nothing to do with the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. With his usual cohorts Riley, Abigail and his father, Patrick Gates, the trio must race against the clock to stop a new enemy, ... Read More:

City Of Angels [1998]

starring: Nicolas Cage, Meg Ryan, Andre Braugher, Dennis Franz, Colm Feore
directed by: Brad Silberling

I can scarcely believe that anyone took this movie seriously, principally because of Nicolas Cage's (par-for-the-course) appalling acting.. It is quite pitiful to watch him attempt to present a noble mien as the angelic character, cocking his head on one side; standing on a skyscraper in his long slouch coat, looking with compassion at the teeming millions below; speaking... very... slowly... to indicate that he is troubled by the torment of emotions which we poor humans have to endure. Really he is HYSTERICAL.

Captain Corelli's Mandolin [2001]

starring: Penélope Cruz, Nicolas Cage, John Hurt, Christian Bale, Irene Papas
directed by: John Madden

Judged on its own, this movie is an empty piece of fluff. However, judged against the novel which, at best, VERY loosely "inspired" it, it is frankly criminal. All those involved in the film should be deeply ashamed of themselves. As I watched, my disappointment gradually turned into a deep soul-destroying horror, particularly at the ending, which chewed up, swallowed, and excreted the final chapters of the novel in a great steaming pile of celluloid nonsense. The ending was not only unrecognizable, it managed to completely ... Read More:

starring: Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage, Ed Harris, John Spencer, David Morse
directed by: Michael Bay

This is cracking stuff. Plenty of stunts, good one liners, car chases, gunfights - in fact it's pretty much perfect action cinema. A guaranteed good evening's TV.

National Treasure [2004]

Although I enjoyed the film on a very basic, escapist level, the cynical American nationalism on show was quite replellent. As the film bowls along we are given endless panoramic views of American landmarks, cities, and - what a shock - an aircraft carrier brimming over with fighter planes. The theme throughout appears to be "Gee, aint the good ole USA amazing!" with a flimsy adventure almost tacked on. Also, in the company of Harvey Keitel and Sean Bean (what were they thinking?) Nicolas Cage proves once again that he can't act; I suppose ... Read More:

Ghost Rider - Extended Cut [2007]

starring: Nicolas Cage, Eva Mendes, Peter Fonda, Wes Bentley, Sam Elliott

July 02, 2007
I cant say I was disapointed in this film because I expect exactly what I got; this film is bad and throughout the film there is a very cheesey feel to it. The erractic Nicolas Cage is truely dreadful in the lead role and he's obviously just turned up for the pay-cheque. The movie has few, if any, redeeming features. The effects look uninspired and overall production seems, by Hollywood standards, cheap.

Comic-to-film adaptations have always been a mixed back but this embarassment of a movie is at the bottom of that bag.

Con Air - Extended Cut [1997]

starring: Nicolas Cage, John Malkovich, Monica Potter, John Cusack, Steve Buscemi
directed by: Simon West

This is one for the boy's...the action sequences, chase scenes and fight scenes between inmates all make for a typical lad's film.
Being a girl, I really enjoyed this film - Cage and Malkovich are a great pair and Cusack is very entertaining in his role.
The film is well cut and the after effects for the time - particularly in the final sequence are impressive!
The action is never-ending and the fight isn't over til the very end.
Overall, a highly recommended film.

Face/Off [1997]

starring: John Travolta, Nicolas Cage, Joan Allen, Alessandro Nivola, Gina Gershon
directed by: John Woo

June 11, 2001
The synopsis above will tell the plot and the general outline of the film which. can I just say, is fantastic; but what it doesnt say is how the two actors Cage and Travolta turn out what is possibly two of the best performances of their professional career. This is when actors are put to the test. Not only do both fully commit to their character and delivering a believable performance that submerses the audience into the plot, when the two actors swap chatacers they take on each others characteristics, movements, posture, facial expressions, and everything ...

Gone In 60 Seconds - Director's Cut [2000]

starring: Nicolas Cage, Angelina Jolie, Robert Duvall, Christopher Eccleston, Delroy Lindo
directed by: Dominic Sena

August 01, 2005
This film is so silly! Bad acting, terrible effects, poor story, paper thin characters and not enough cars. The baddie is not scary, the brother is a weak character and should have been crushed. Cage is wasted in this film and Jolie is underused. Stealing cars is stealing cars and being put into such a ridiculous situation as this and to stretch it into a film is a complete waste of time and money. Typical Bruckheimer brain melting unchallenging fodder. Go and steal a real car, it would be more fun and the consequences would be preferable to sitting down through ... Read More:
