City of Angels v. Left Behind
05/26/21 • 116 min
This week on CAGE/OFF we're joined by our friends Taylor and Justus as we break down two quasi-religious Nicolas Cage films! First we talk City of Angels (1998), a romantic drama in which a stoic angel (Cage) discovers the complexity of human emotion when he falls in love with a regular woman (Meg Ryan). Listen as we tackle what might be the most difficult question of all: is Nicolas Cage good in this movie?
If you thought the fun would stop there think again, idiot!! We then talk about Left Behind (2014), an adaptation of the best-selling evangelical Christian novel of the same name, in which Cage spends 95% of the runtime just kind of sitting in the cockpit of a plane figuring out what to do after the Rapture occurs. It's a battle for the ages as Cage at the peak of his movie stardom faces off against low-budget, VOD-era Cage! Thrilling!

Honeymoon in Vegas v. Valley Girl
On a very romantic episode of CAGE/OFF, we're talking two Nicolas Cage rom-coms! First up is Honeymoon in Vegas (1992), co-starring Sarah Jessica Parker and James Caan, in which Cage has to give up his fiancée (Parker) for the weekend in order to square his debt to a professional gambler (Caan).
Then, we turn the clock back to discuss Cage's very first starring role as Hollywood punk Randy in Valley Girl (1983)! Which film will be moving on to fight another day? Which character in Valley Girl carries the most BLE (Big Logan Energy)? You'll have to listen to find out!
