For example, critics who saw this psychedelic Nicolas Cage horror film were generally very impressed with Mandy. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a critical score of 90 percent.
The critical consensus notes that “ Mandy‘s gonzo violence is fueled by a gripping performance by Nicolas Cage–and anchored with palpable emotion conveyed between his volcanic outbursts.”
The note about Nicolas Cage’s performance is quite true and is what takes Mandy into “horror masterpiece” territory. I will admit that I usually find Cage very unintentionally funny, and I could barely wrap my mind around the idea of the acting veteran turning in such an emotionally nuanced performance.
But in Mandy, he effortlessly shifts between being a supportive boyfriend to being a relentless hunter, and the whole thing serves as a showcase for his diverse acting talents.
