Nic was really good in KickAss. Not going to spoil it for you, but there was a scene where his performance pulled my heartstrings. And I thought to myself “I did not realise he can be that good as an actor”. I also heard Nic is excellent in the recent movies Pig and Dream Scenario.
To be honest, I didn’t even remember him in KickAss but for what it’s worth I did enjoy that movie. Your comment inspired me to look at his IMDB page and compare to which movies of his I actually have seen since the 1997 - 2002 era.
The Flash - I don’t really count this, especially given that his role is listed as uncredited.
Renfield - I liked this movie way more than I should have and I also particularly liked Nic in it. It has changed my view on him.
Willy’s Wonderland - Nothing great, far from his worst movie. And I’m not sure it counts in this context since I saw it after Renfield.
Color Out of Space - I enjoyed the movie it’s really my type of thing, but also I saw it after Renfield, so not sure it counts in this context. Plus, I can’t say his performance was anything spectacular.
Mandy - I don’t really remember the movie, let alone Nic’s performance, but for some reason I’m thinking it was at least alright.
Ghost Rider movies - I didn’t have much choice in watching these, but they sucked in my opinion and reinforced my dislike of movies that contain Nic Cage.
Kick-Ass - I forgot he was in it when I made my original comment, but I mostly just recall him as being unusually competent and in an usually good movie beyond his caliber.
One or more of the National Treasure movies - They weren’t my thing. I thought they all sucked. Feel free to disagree, I won’t hate you for it, but I disagree. It reinforced my belief that I should avoid movies with Nic Cage in them.
From what I could tell, his “appearance” in The Flash, which is in quotes because I’m fairly certain it was all CGI with no dialogue, was an incredibly deep cut inside joke for a Tim Burton Superman movie that never got released. His “appearance” in The Flash should not be considered a Nic Cage performance.

Raising Arizona is something pretty different of his that I like a lot as well.
