Movies that good can make any actor appear talented. the best actors can make even the worst films at least semi-watchable.

Nicholas Cage is an actor who I generally can't stand, not that he is bad, just because he bothers me. But Cage was brilliant in Adaptation. Granted the material was a bit better than, say, ConAir or that movie when he exchanges faces with Travolta, and the two have a wild face off (I think it was called 'The Great Face Exchange'), but I thought Cage was awesome without any qualifications in Adaptation. I even dislike him in Leaving Las Vegas.

Ghost Rider was awful. The way they're crapping out these comic book movies with descending quality is why I was so surprised that I'm hearing Iron Man doesn't suck, and is actually pretty good. I guess you have to look into who's making them. But I thought Spiderman 3 was lame after loving the first two.
