Nicolas Cage is a film genre in itself – even if the films with him are bad, it’s certainly not his fault. We’ve picked out the highlights of his wild career.

In the nineties and two-thousanders, Nicolas Cage was often seen in Hollywood blockbusters. These times of great success are now over, but Cage is far from retiring. On the contrary, while other actors make at most two films in a year, Cage often does five or six.
Cage loves acting and doesn’t differentiate between a small direct-to-DVD production or a feature film. As long as he likes the project (or the money is right), Cage will give it his all.
Cage’s game is often a little “uninhibited”, but one shouldn’t forget that Nicolas Cage is an Oscar winner who has repeatedly proven what he’s made of. So Cage is not a bad actor, just special. That’s why Cage films, as different as they may be, have now become their own genre.
In the list that follows, you’ll find nine of the craziest or most interesting movies Nicolas Cage has starred in. It is often thanks to Cage alone that these titles stand out from the crowd and are remembered.
However, films like “Con Air” or “The Rock” are missing from our list, because they are beyond any doubt and Cage is entertaining in them, but not as unpredictable as we are used to from him.
