10 Terrible Movie Stars Who Just Can't Act At All

9. Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage seems to have two default settings... 1. Creepy, calm neurotic guy. OR 2. Super angry crazy guy that will tell you over and over again about how super angry and crazy he is. That's it. There's literally nothing in between. Despite Cage's terrible choices as far as movie gigs go in the last few years he is usually a joy whenever you see him, even in the blandest of movies. Cage seems to be self aware at this point (or you have to hope he is anyway) and pretty much just portrays every one of his roles as a parody of himself to varying degrees of success. That surely has to make him more entertaining than he would be if he could act. It wasn't always this way - way back before the dark days, Cage was a dependable indie actor (after an inauspicious start) but his head was turned at some point, and he clearly decided being slightly bonkers and making poor films was a better approach. If you enjoy Cage's signature style, you're in for a treat when The Expendables 3 creaks around the corner next year, which is a gig I'm guessing he landed thanks to the national treasure that was Ghost Rider.
