I'd answer "Raising Arizona" if the question were "what's the best movie Nic Cage has been in" but the question is "What your fav Nic Cage movie. Raising Arizona is a Nic Cage movie he happened to be in.
Also, what was ALMOST the best Nic Cage movie? Easily the Superman that was almost made with Tim Burton as director.
What could give Raising Arizona a run for the "best movie with Nic Cagi in it" award? That Kickass movie coming out.
The Rock and that's bc Sean Connery was in it. Otherwise, I think nic cage is a bland, one note actor-who-can't-really-act. sorry, John, I can't get on board with you on this.
It's a toss-up between The Rock and Con-Air...both of them have ridiculously great lines and supporting casts (emphasis on 'ridiculous'), and both try desperately to depict Nic Cage--remember, this is little Nicky Coppola we're talking about--as a total badass, which, if you just suspend disbelief for a few moments, is just crazy enough to work.
Like my friend said, "it's like picking which of my children I love the most."
Face-off is pure amazing-ness, if only for the fact I am now attracted to (reasonably young and attractive) men in priest robes. Next, National Treasure...
I do really like him in Adaptation and Peggy Sue though.
Yeah, no. Trying to find a good Nick Cage movie that's worth watching is like trying to find a good Nickelback song worth listening to. It can't be done.
Con Air was the first movie that came to mind, but then I remembered the awesomeness that is Raising Arizona. The thing about having a favorite Nic Cage movie is that it's not likely that he's the reason that you like the movie--he just happens to be in it.
PS--my captcha is "ponyhori," which makes me giggle.
All of them? Its a tie between the Rock and Face Off.
Did anyone else see Snake Eyes? It was sort of a precursor to 24 in that all of the events supposedly happened in real time. Except that all of the events were REALLY REALLY boring.
Sports Guy on ESPN.com floated that Nic Cage should star in a caper movie called Bankrupt just so the ads could be 'Nicolas Cage is... BANKRUPT'.
Con Air was my first thought as well. And I was going to say Raising Arizona until I read John's response. I was also going to agree with K8 on Moonstruck... until I read John's response. So Con Air it is. But I think I need to rewatch National Treasure.

I missed Con Air. "Puh da bunny dow."

obsessed with National Treasure.... love it love it love it! there's something so adventurous about it!
Definitely Adapation
National Treasure for sure.
But I also really like The Family Man. Not sure why...
The Rock is amazing, but also because of Sean Connery, not Nick Cage.
Guarding Tess is really funny though too.
Top 5 Nick Cage movies:
1) Lord of War
2) National Treasure
3) The Rock
4) The Family Man
5) City of Angels
