Holy shit you guys, we’ve hit the big 2-0! Twenty Nic Cage movies down, fifty more to go!! Stamina is holding up, mental state is strong. I’ve gotta admit, I am feeling pretty impressed with myself…
I can’t believe I had never heard of Trapped in Paradise! I can best describe it as a Three-Stooges-esq Christmas Crime comedy. The stooges in this case are Cage, Dana Carvy, and Jon Lovitz. All three are brothers, Cage is the responsible one, Lovitz is the scheming one, and Carvy is the mega stupid one. Cage being the smart one for sure lead to some amazing Cage Flip Outs. I counted 5 total flip outs.
CAGE FLIP OUT TALLY: 29
This, however, was my favorite Cage quote in the whole film:
For the most part I enjoyed this movie. It was overall a beat you over the head, slapstickish comedy, a genre which I am definitely not too god for by any means (I was going to marry Adam Sandler when I was 12, if that’s any proof.) However the ending dragged on for way too long and I eventually started to lose interest.
Trapped in Paradise? Meh. Cage? YEAH BOYEEEE! On to the next!! Kiss of Death!!!
