I've seen all of them, and he was quite good in Leaving Las Vegas, but I wasn't overly impressed with these others you list. I think Adaptation (and his role in it) was pretty dang over-rated.you guys talking crap about cage obviously have very limited knowledge of him. he IS a great actor. seen leaving las vegas? seen matchstickmen? seen adaptation? seen face/off?
whatever you say kid. Those movies are nothing to brag about. The only in that list that was better than average was Face Off.you guys talking crap about cage obviously have very limited knowledge of him. he IS a great actor. seen leaving las vegas? seen matchstickmen? seen adaptation? seen face/off? oh yeah, you havent. you've only seen his bruckheimer movies.
the guy is on par with the best of the best actors in hollywood.

And while on that topic, I think Sean Penn is one of the most over-rated actors of this generation. His best movie was probably Falcon and the Snowman
You may like the guy, but just because others don't doesn't mean that they have "limited knowledge." They may just have better taste
Then how would you define "great acting"?

Well that's fine, but despite all your film education, you still haven't defined this "great acting" concept that the rest of us lay-folk just don't get. If you can do that, then we can have a discussion. Until then. . .you said sean penn is overrated. how can you explain to a person what a great painting van gogh did when that person cant even appreciate basic stil life painting?
i've taken filmmaking courses and read some acting/directing books enough to trust my own judgement over yours. let's just leave it at that.

Well Hell-looooooo Mr. Fancy Pants.
Indeed, Penn is the "still life" to Nicolas Cage's "Van Gogh"
