Rotten TomatoesNicholas Cage happened to make a strong and impressionable comeback with one of his latest releases which did not live up to the expectations of the fans mainly because of its complete plot but fans watched it just because of the iconic Hollywood celebrity Nicholas Cage himself. The movie's plot had a lot of missing elements and was not that good but in totality, this piece of art will not fail to deliver smiles to the faces of the viewers. It is perfect if you are looking for a light-watch film that is funny enough to keep you entertained. It is so funny from beginning to end that the viewer will surely burst out laughing and will get tears in eyes. While the beginning and finish of the film have their own amusing moments and plenty of action to keep the picture exciting, the middle section is undoubtedly the best - all the scenes with Nic and Javi are fantastic.

A sequence involving Nicolas Cage reprising some of his most iconic roles like Face/Off (1997), Con Air (1997), Leaving Las Vegas (1995) and Gone in 60 Seconds (2000), in a long black-and-white fight sequence between him and his younger self in a Surrealist German Expressionist set evoking of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920), was cut from the film as the studio thought it didn't fit the third act. According to Cage, the deleted scene will be released on home media.
Nicolas Cage thought Javi was the best written character in the movie, so much so he even asked to trade parts, as he thought playing his own biggest fan was more meta than playing himself. It wasn't until Pedro Pascal was cast that Cage eventually relented.
At the end of principal photography, the whole cast was gifted a pillow with Nicolas Cage's face on it - each one autographed by him.
According to Neil Patrick Harris, Nicolas Cage had body makeup to cover his tattoos. When he asked Cage why Nic Cage the character doesn't have the tattoos Nicolas Cage the real person has, Cage said the character didn't have as many wives as him.
Nicolas Cage said in an interview that he probably will never watch the movie because "the idea of going meta and playing a quote-unquote surrealistic version of myself and a quote-unquote surrealistic version or interpretation of a younger version of myself going head to head might just be too psychologically invasive for one Nicolas Cage.... I will go to the premiere, but I'm probably not going to be sitting in the audience." However, due to a conflict between the director and the studio, Cage had to watch the movie to decide whether some scenes should be cut or not.
"Nick Cage: Paddington 2 is incredible. Javi Gutierrez: I fucking told you."
"[Cage has Javi at gunpoint with the two golden guns from "Face/Off"] Javi Gutierrez: Are those my golden guns? Nick Cage: They're *my* golden guns. Javi Gutierrez: I don't want to kill you. Nick Cage: You're the last person I wanna kill. Javi Gutierrez: I love you! Nick Cage: I LOVE YOU!"
