The flamboyant gangster character Castor Troy couldn't be more over-the-top if he was a hastily poured pint of beer, and if you think that's a bad pun, that's nothing compared to the dialogue Cage seethingly delivers as the antagonist in Face/Off. "If you dress like Halloween, ghouls will try to get in your pants," is just one of his lines, and even that pales in comparison to Cage's wide eyes, evil grins, and flashy, dancing displays of villainy that show how let-off-the-chain he was for this role. He seems to relish in killing people, ruthlessly mocks John Travolta's character over that time that he murdered his son, and even sings when he thinks he's about to die. Cage's performance only shined ridiculously brighter when he and Travolta switched faces meaning it was Travolta's turn to be bad, but he never stood a chance. Even Scientology couldn't prepare Travolta to out-Cage Cage in Crazytown, and that's saying a lot.
