Yep he creeps me the fuck out, he's a bad lot and he's not been great in anything I've seen.

He was pretty good in Lord of war. Ironically also Nick cages best acting. Now that I think of it, whoever directed that should get a lifetime achievement award for getting good acting out of the two of them. But yeah Jared Leto sucks and I'm fairly positive there's some fucked up armie hammer kind of shit going on behind the scenes as well.

Leaving Las Vegas has amazing Nick Cage acting.

Never saw it. But I did like the unbearable weight of massive talent. But he basically just played himself and Pedro pascal was perfect in it.

He didn't basically play himself he literally played himself.

Daddy Pedro is dreamy though.

I mean, you're not wrong, he literally played himself, but he did it well. Like a version of himself that we see him as. Probably not how he is at home by himself tho, is what I'm assuming.

Edit: Pedro is still the man, even if his trajectory is leveling out.

He was good in Requiem for a Dream but I think everything I've seen him in since then has been dogshit.
