NC

Nicholas Cage movies are the kind of movies that usually in fact almost always turn out to be pretty watchable, no matter how straight to DVD or B grade they are.
In fact when there's nothing to watch on TV, I tend to pick out any random new or old NC movie and watch it. He's dabbling in a lot of action, crime, adventure movies off late and they're all good.

Face Off was one of those definitive movies that cemented my adulation for not only everything John Woo but Cage as well.
I must've watched it over a dozen times.

As a kid when star movies was one of those awesome movie channels that ran movies! (Gasp!) all the time, I ended up watching a movie called 'Guarding Tess' in which NC was a secret agent assigned as a bodyguard to a former First Lady, and it explored their relationship as her being the elderly somewhat elegant if a bit erratic woman (Shirley McLain as fantastic as ever) and Cage as her loyal if somewhat stern bodyguard.

As a child I loved it, absolutely loved it, and ever since have never turned down any Nicholas movie, be it Matchstick men, lord of war(brazilliant), Moonstruck(awesomeness) and the list never ends.

So yes, his movies along with everything Mel Gibson and Denzel Washington never fail to be entertaining and are always such good pastime.
