Of the lower quality Cage films I’ve seen, that’s one of the better ones.

Good dumb: stupid shit that could result in novel experience, funny stories

Bad dumb: watching generic shit like National Treasure (I assume).

This was a fun interview

https://www.gq.com/story/nicolas-cage-a ... er-profile
Speaking to GQ, Cage explained that, after losing money on real estate, he needed to take on roles to pay off his debts and look after his mother, and he didn't want to file for bankruptcy.

"When I was doing four movies a year, back to back to back, I still had to find something in them to be able to give it my all," he said. "They didn't work, all of them. Some of them were terrific, like Mandy, but some of them didn't work. But I never phoned it in. So if there was a misconception, it was that. That I was just doing it and not caring. I was caring."

Makes you wonder how much of that Cage magic is caffeine.
