The hype was way overblown - the movie sucked.

Really? This was next up on my list to watch.
There are really no surprises and there is also not very much Cage.
Don't want to give too much away.

watched it after I saw Sugar's post-I watch anything with Cage as I am a fan of his-but he was barely in the movie-no reason to advertise that he is-and it looks nothing like him anyway so you would not even know! Def. not the best movie I have seen, especially with Cage in it. I think on of my fav of his movies is Raising Arizona. Love a good horror and thriller, Mandy was good too
Leaving Las Vegas is still top ten films period for me.
Pig was really good

100% agree. Weatherman and Lord or War are my other top Cage films, but Leaving Las Vegas is amazing and at the top.

So I thought I had seen all his movies (but Pig which I was too delicate for LOL) BUT I apparently have NOT seen Leaving Las Vegas-WTF (on me)?! So I looked it up and it says it's a drama/romance-which is not normally my thing-def not romance-I normally don't like romance-it's over rated I movies and in real life
BUT now that I think of it I LOVED City of Angels-ok ok so now I will watch leaving LAs Vegas-give it a try thanks guys
I found it to be more about a man's struggle with alcohol addiction more than a romance.I advise you to at least check it out as it's not a mushy movie but more about guy falling into the abyss of depravity.I actually felt sympathy for his character,and I hate habitual drunks.So I thought I had seen all his movies (but Pig which I was too delicate for LOL) BUT I apparently have NOT seen Leaving Las Vegas-WTF (on me)?!

I went to college in PA. Bars, restaurants, and individuals all got liquor at state stores. My first time in one I saw a guy with a whole shopping cart of liquor, and I said to him, "Leaving Las Vegas?" He got what I was on to and said, "no, I work for a bar". It's been a long, long time, I need to watch that movie again.
I wouldn't say it sucked as much as I would say it was just ok. I do agree it was highly overrated. There were things I did like, as Perkins does show some talent in the horror department. But I came away from it just like I do his other movies... unsatisfied by the overall product.
