RE: Well the Jason Bourne series is a wash for me... as I think Damon is a schmuck....

Cage is an interesting study in self-destruction.

After his initial performance (to rave reviews, BTW) in Raising Arizona, starring opposite Hollie Hunter, he went off on a binge. Prior to that you could see his potential in Moonstruck....which I think earned Cher an Oscar....terrific bit of film.

Cage apparently at one time owned multiple houses and had a motorcycle AND auto collection as well as simply blowing a huge sum on nonsense.

As a result, his career suffered. He was in substantial TAX TROUBLE and ended up doing many films simply for the payday. When an actor does THAT, you can bet they are 'on the ropes'. Some of his works during this phase were AWFUL. Like that movie where he was on a motorcycle? I thought Lord Of War was OK, not up to snuff.
Too much is never enough
