Nicolas Cage's taste is getting weirder

Nicolas Cage, who used to be one of the actors I recognized very much, basically I would happily watch any of his films. Especially his "Changing Face", the precise interpretation of the good guy and the bad guy in the same film fully proves his acting skills.
But I don't know when it started, his films are getting deeper and deeper and more and more incomprehensible. "Weatherman" completely blinded me, I don't know what he wanted to say. This "Bad Lieutenant", when I found out that he played it, was mixed.
Sure enough, he told a story that I totally didn't appreciate, and created someone I totally didn't appreciate, in an environment that I totally didn't appreciate. When I saw this film, I was thinking: It seems that I still prefer the story of the prince and the princess...
Personally, I don't like this kind of dirty, dark American film.
