Cage is a brilliant actor but he was in quite a few shifty movies
It just depends tbh. He phones it in a lot, and other performances he just fucking misses so hard that it makes scenes or entire movies unwatchable.
His death scene in Kick Ass is one of the most painfully bad death scenes I've ever seen in an otherwise solid movie.
His entire performance in Ghost Rider was cringey and he was trying his ass off because he has ALWAYS wanted to be in any superhero movie, it's been his dream forever.
Then he's got movies like Bad Lieutenant or Leaving Las Vegas that show-case his range and ability. The guy has always been terrible at picking scripts, and his spending issues leading him to desperately take bad roles for paychecks is another huge problem, but he does have talent, he just can't always tap into it.
