I think that Nicholas Cage is a very flexible actor which is hard to find in movies these days. I mean, he can do comedies, action movies, dramas yet does not play the role the same way every time and there is no particular role you always associate with him (such as Keanu Reeves.....no matter what movies he does I still see him as Ted from "Bill and Ted" saying "Duuude.....even in the Matrix I was just waiting for "Duuuude") when you are watching a film featuring him as someone else. As I said, I never saw a Nic Cage movie I ever hated (Ok slight annoyance on "Season of the Witch" ) but I think that the fact he doesn't look like he is aiming for an Oscar every time he chooses a role makes the film a decent watch.
"Requiem for a Dream" is a film I haven't seen yet. Seems interesting if not to see Jared Leto in another good film.
