Agree with Leo. Not sure I've ever seen a film that he has been in that I didn't like (although Django went up and down. Some parts of the movies were pretty damn good, some parts were just awful)

Also a big fan of the Quick and the Dead that he did when he was a teenager. Had to watch Romeo + Juliet in high school was also good.

As for Cage, I know National Treasure is kind of like an Indiana knock off but I enjoy those films as well.

And you didn't even include This Boy's Life where he acted circles around DeNiro and Ellen Barkin as a young kid. He was absolutely brilliant.
