Lord of War
Here’s the intro to Lord of War. I love the little smirk he pulls off at about 45s.
Shame about the real world parts. Ruins it for me these days.
Wow. I never watched because the premise didn’t look interesting, but that’s quite an intro
The movie is quite good to be honest.
I guess I’ll add it to the list then. Thanks
Fantastic movie.
Bath of blood
Lord of War is a work of art
by far the best movie he’s ever been involved with. Good performance too. Leaving Las Vegas is another good performance.
Face/Off. Golden desert eagles, Nic Cage at his cagiest, John Travolta and Nic Cage swapping bodies, legitimately great action scenes, and Nic Cage grabbing a woman’s ass while wearing a priest costume. Just an incredible movie.
overactors trying to out-overact each other. Love it!
It’s a toss up between Con Air’s bonkers accent and Drive Angry’s William Fitchner.
Valley Girls because Dottie’s boobs.
Next (2007) was quite good actually.
I also remember it fondly but I’m not sure it would hold up nowadays… Have you watched it recently?
Not that recently I’m afraid. But I remember that I was really curious how the story plays out and while it wasn’t groundbreaking it was a satisfying twist end.
Not your regular Hollywood happy end.
Yeah that’s true for sure.
Red Rock West a delicious film noir with Dennis Hopper
The Rock and National Treasure
Yeah, National Treasure was so good.
Con Air and Con Air
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent was pretty damn good.
Adaptation.
It’s got twice as many Nick’s, and the Tiger King getting Maryl Streep addicted to drugs
Finally!! This movie NEVER comes up but I absolutely love Peggy Sue Got Married (1986). Fucking classic and he’s great in it.
Okay he’s not the lead but he’s like the main co-star.
Love love love this movie
Raising Arizona or Wild At Heart
Mandy. It’s a balls to the wall thrill ride of psychedelic mayhem. Oh and amazing soundtrack.
“Eric Estrada from CHIIIIIPS” might be one of his best-delivered lines.
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
The Color Out of Space, I think he does really well in that and it’s scary as fuck.
The Wicker Man, because of the scene with the bees is priceless.
And of course, Mandy. I will not elaborate further, just watch it.
The Color Out of Space is one of the only films that left me feeling genuinely unsettled for days after I watched it. The other film that did this was Bird Box
Pig. It was INCREDIBLY emotionally effective and made me cry SO HARD FOR LIKE 20 MINUTES. Holy shit what a good movie.
I liked it but I thought it was a little up its own ass. The underground fight club scene was a bit much
