Silver Linings Playback 20 – National Treasure: Book of Secrets

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre continue their quest to watch maligned movies in hopes of finding a silver lining. For the month of September, they are watching films starring the one and only Nicolas Cage.

This week, they watch National Treasure: Book of Secrets, a film where Benjamin Franklin Gates must kidnap the President and find a city of gold in order to clear his ancestor’s name. The plot is as ridiculous as it sounds, but together Joel and Andy will find the film’s silver lining.

Silver Linings Playback 19 – USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage

Joel Murphy and Andy McIntyre continue their quest to watch maligned movies in hopes of finding a silver lining. For the month of September, they are watching films starring the one and only Nicolas Cage.

They start the month off with USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage, the 2016 film directed by Mario Van Peebles. The film is based on the true story of the WWII ship that was sunk in the middle of the Philippine Sea. The survivors were forced to stay afloat in shark-infested waters for days before anyone came to rescue them. The film suffers from poor CGI and a muddled story, but together Joel and Andy find its silver lining.

087-Nicolas Cage? part I

Once in a lifetime there is someone who is so perplexing in their field that they become more. They transcend their stardom. Nicolas Cage has been in over eighty movies portraying romantics, law enforcers, con men, superheros and psychopaths. He has spawned countless memes due to his sometimes bizarre acting choices. There have been TV episodes based wholly off of whether he is a great or terrible actor. Yet you cannot deny that he is an Oscar winning thespian. We could not tackle this subject alone. It’s to big for two men. So we called in Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle from Hobo Trashcan to decide if Nicolas cage is a good actor or a great one.
