Fight scenes
A big production Horror Comedy as Dracula's trusty servant is looking to break free of their toxic relationship.
It's silly, fun and with some good action scenes and a fair bit of bloody gore. Nicholas Cage is great as an OTT Dracula. A good fun film mixing up various genres. Packs a punch and has bite!

Nicolas cage's wildest adventures pt 1
Contains spoilers, click to show
The best part of this movie is nicolas cage he steals the show. Also sean bean as the villian and he doesnt die is a sin. Sean bean dies in every single movie he's in. So not letting him die in this film is a sin. Nicolas cage also steals the decloration of indepence at one pont because their is a treasure/map on the back, no biggy, not a problem for nicolas cage.
Whats next steal the statue of liberty, climb on top of the empire state buliding or climb on top of mount rushmore.

Meta-Fun
It is a tricky thing on film, to parody your film image without making it an homage (or a complete trashing) of yourself. And, in THE UNBEARABLE WEIGHT OF MASSIVE TALENT, Nicholas Cage (playing Nick Cage) has found the line perfectly.
Conceived, written and Directed by Tom Cormican (THAT AWKWARD MOMENT), UWOMT (as I will call it here on out) is a meta-film that has Nicholas Cage playing a highly stylized and fictionalized version of himself. In this film, Nick Cage is desperate for work and going broke, when a rich fan offers him $1 million to appear at a birthday party. What happens next is bizarre, gonzo and out-of-control - and a lot of fun.
Let’s start with the man himself, Nicholas Cage, once he was convinced to do this film (and it took some convincing, for he turned this film down at least 3 times), he dives in with both feet and with full gusto filling Nick Cage with the wild actions and antics that are the basis of many, many Nicholas Cage memes. It is a knowing characterization by Cage, but one that knows when to pull back (not a trait often associated with him) and he does it all without winking at the camera.
Credit for this must go to Writer/Director Cormican (and his co-writer Kevin Etten),who had a clear vision of what they wanted to accomplish here, what tone they wanted to set, and how “meta” they wanted this film to be. And they accomplish this goal well, making an interesting and intriguing comedy/action flick that will satisfy many…but, especially, fans of Nicholas Cage.
Along for the fun ride are Neil Patrick Harris, Tiffany Hadish, Ike Barinholtz and Sharon Horgan who all deliver the right vibe for this film (as well as a couple of cameos that would be a spoiler to mention). They all look like that they are having a fun time.
But…the glue that holds all of this craziness together is the performance of Pedro Pascual (NARCOS, THE MANDILORIAN) who plays the millionaire Superfan who hires Cage and, eventually, befriends him. This is a masterful, comedic performance and it is Pascual’s sincerity (without going into buffoonery or overplaying) that grounds this film just enough that you actually care about the relationship between Pascual’s character, Javy, and Cage.
A ton of fun, not only for the performances and wild events, but for the many, many references to fun Cage films/roles of the past - items that will now motivate many (including myself) to check out.
Letter Grade: A
8 stars (out of 10) and you can take that to the Bank(ofMarquis)

Watched today thought it was a bit on the silly and over the top plot parents turning on their children especially the one scene at the school where all the parents go psycho on their kids on school grounds. of course with nic cage doing his usual over the top acting it’s not bad little worth a rewatch
