I know what you're thinking: National Treasure, with its gripping action plot and stellar performances can't possibly have a noteworthy wardrobe IN ADDITION to being the greatest cinematic experience since Citizen Kane a fine mid 2000's tale of romance and adventure. But au contraire, mon ami.
You were wrong.... So wrong.
So without further ado, here's a ranked countdown of ALL of Nick Cage's suave 'fits from National Treasure
5. The Post-Treasure-Discovery Brown Corduroy Suit
Oh, we get it Nick.
You got the girl, you got your money, and now your too cool for school and showing off a little chest hair. While a fashionable ensemble for a windy 20004 November... clearly not your best work.
4. The Stealing the Declaration Tux
If you've got to steal the Declaration of Indepence, you've got to do it in style.
Dapper? Sure. But c'mon Cagey Boy.... Where's the pizzazz?
3.The Antarctic Snow Suit
You're fiending for your first clue, and finally rocking an outfit that says "hey clue, I know it's cold, but I'm ready for you.".... don't even get me started on that fur.
2. Clue-
I know what you're thinking-- We're halfway through this masterpiece film, we have some clues, the team chemistry is building, but when will the romance develop?
Luckily, one hour and nine minutes into National Treasure, NC Hammer finds himself with his
1. Boom.
What are we stealin'? The Liberty Bell? The Mona Lisa? The moon? It doesn't matter. I can steal anything with this suit jacket white button down combo.
And besides, who even saw that Da Vinci Movie anyways? Tom Hanks-- feel free to square up with me at the Louvre and bring your fightin' gloves. There's only room for one receding hairline history-expert / high-security thief round these parts.
You might be wondering, are we striking power poses with one too many undone buttons, or solving the thousand year mystery of the Freemasons?
Does it matter. We're doing it with style.
And THAT is why Nicolas Cage is the true National Treasure.
