watched Mandy and Color out of Space back to back while on mushrooms recently... and yeah, holy moly are they ever fantastic little movies.

*spoiler warning* To me, this movie was representative of the five stages of grief. Denial being right after he wakes up, he’s still whistling for the pig to come back to him even after she’s been taken. Anger, when he goes to the underground to take a beating. Bargaining when he tries to speak with the father to get the pig back the first time, then when he’s collecting the ingredients to make the meal. Depression when he learns that she’s gone, the heartbreak of him falling to the ground and sobbing. And at the end, acceptance when he washes off the blood from his journey and cleanses himself, then returns home back to the cabin and finally listens to the whole tape of his wife’s voice. Of course this is just my interpretation and there are many others to be had! I absolutely loved this movie, my partner and I watched it on our anniversary night only like two nights ago and this is now one of his favorite films, this and The Green Knight (which I didn’t care for too much). I don’t usually like “artsy” films as I call them, but this one knocked it out of the ball park.

We need to remember that Nicolas Cage is a respected, Oscar winning actor. Say what you will about his recent DTV output, films like Mandy and Pig prove that when he's presented with the right script, one that he actually cares about, he will give his all in a way that he doesn't (despite how over the top he admittedly is) to the random trash he's usually offered. With Pig, I really hope Nic has finally begun his renaissance and will start to choose quality projects again.

I was expecting Nic's character to kill himself at the end, and instead sitting with the last thing his wife left him in the light of the sun streaming down on him felt like the start of something new, that it is possible to go on with your life, even after having lost so much.

Uhm... Are you telling me this is the "culinary" John Wick equivalent. Protagonist was once apart of a secret organization, leaves, loses his spouse.

Michael Sarnoski did something very special with Pig. The film makes the audience feel. I woke up the next morning feeling sad. I was mourning the loss of a pet pig that I had just met. This is cinema at its purest form. The hand held cinematography gave the film an upclose, intimate feel. Pig sits among my all-time favorite pictures. When I found out this was Mr. Sarnoski's first film, I was astonished. I can't wait to see his next work. I appreciate his artistry as he is working to keep cinema alive.

I cried at the ending when they tell Rob the pig died and he breaks down and starts to cry very impacting :')

Playing on the porch of your own house, while the parents are likely just inside making dinner or reading a book or watching TV isn't strange at all. I will say those parents definitely need to teach their kid stranger danger, though.

Ya this movie made me bawl my eyes out don’t @ me! Idk why but “the loner character who loses the only thing he’s got left to care about” is a movie trope I’ll never get tired of no matter how long I live. Especially when it’s played by an amazing actor like Nic Cage.

In greek myth Eurydice dies and Orpheus makes the journey all the way to the underworld to beg hades to return his wife, Eurydice, who he is madly in love with. Oroheus is the greatest musician on earth, so plays hades a song so beautoful hades agrees to release eurydice on the condition that she follow him all the way out of the underworld, and he may not ever glance backwards to see if she is still following. Orpheus makes the long climb out of the underworld but at the last minute loses faith and glances back, only to see Eurydice pulled into the underworld, forever. In the movie, Cages pig gets stolen and taken by the underground restaurant industry, cage makes the long and hard journey to the head of the underground industry, "performs" a beautiful meal for him, only to find that all along his pig is dead and cannot return with him. Cage even has a line at the end where he says something along the lines of "If I hadn't looked for her, in some ways it would feel like shes still alive" it is only by looking for his pig, that he finds out the pig is lost forever. Much like orpheus looking for eurydice lost eurydice forever, despite orpheus and cage making the journey to the underworld to speak to the leader of the underworld and perform so beautifully for them

Mandy, Color Out of Space and Pig. The greatest trilogy ever made.

What makes Nicholas Cage so great is that he always gives 100 percent on every role

Finally, I'm kinda obsessed watching elvis talks about nicholas cage's movie

i love how the whole movie feels like its Almost about to go over the edge into nicholas cage insanity but it never does. what an amazing movie

After this movie ended my friend and I sat in complete silence for minutes, neither of us had words it hit us that hard.

I watched this movie while doing something else, and even if I wasn't completely engaged, I still felt really sad during this. Also, I felt so bad for the pig when it started screaming, it was one of the most memorable parts of the movie for me.

This video helped me understand the ending of the movie a little better. I thought it was good, but now I think it's great. Possibly my favorite movie this year. Nicolas Cage is a legend.

I just love how nic cage gives his 100% into every role. Its proof that a good movie not only needs a dedicated actor, but good writing and directing as well.

Willis takes movies for a paycheck to sleep through. Cage takes movies for a paycheck to give 110% to. It's not a bad strategy. Even if only 10% are great, they are really really great and people will remember those WAY past the bad ones.

This is his best performance since Leaving Las Vegas. It's an incredible film, everyone needs to watch it.

Its stuff like this that makes Nic my favourite actor he really can take any role and make it great, he can go from the two extremes of low tier garbage to high end art and still pull out a fun and entertaining performance

Honestly, the ending seems more hopeful than it does depressing. Maybe it's because I have yet to watch it myself, but I think it's pretty uplifting to end on a note that despite all of his struggles, this man on the edge of collapse from his own despair is finally able to begin moving on with his life and reclaim some of what he lost. It's the beginning of an implied story all its own, and that story is one of many important steps to drag oneself out of their own misery, learning to face and live in the world again. To me, the ending is only the beginning for the protagonist. What could be more hopeful than to know that someone is able to move on and live their lives with a healthier mindset going forward?

Me and my cousin did a commentary track on this film and we were so surprised with what this movie was! We were expecting Taken with a Pig, Bakon if you will, but what a fun watch. Loved Alex Wolfs performance as well and Nic Cage killed it !

Nick Cage has been crushing it with these weird, trippy movies lately. He's really finding himself XD Mandy had the insanity of Drive with the violence of Hotline Miami, which is awesome. Willy's Wonderland is fucking hilarious and badass, and Nick was basically DOOMGUY as a janitor. And now this is a compelling, subtly comedic story about loss, grief and Nick definitely not fucking a pig.

My favorite scene was the "fake scene" When I heard "Rob" emotionally utter "We don't get a lot of things to care about" I felt that so deeply. And then the words "Liver scotch eggs with a honey curry mustard" escaped the chefs lips like they were truly hiding away in his heart all this time. What can I say besides "Well done" 👏

Great film and a thorough, concise review. All the actors were professional and believable, and the direction was spot on. I didn't find it particularly depressing, more that Rob was more like Job, had been through the mixer, but was not willing to give in or compromise, more stoic than most people are comfortable with these days. ow you're back to your reviewing best Elvis, it's time to take on the movie The Sunday Times reviewer writes is 'Oddly, darkly, great' - Titane!

Nic is the gift that keeps on giving. the Man is actually a great actor.

Watched this with my partner a couple weeks ago in the cinema, and we absolutely loved it. It's a very subtle and understated film, with a beautiful mixture of comedy, emotion, love, and loss. Not a single scene I'd change, amazing for a directorial debut.

This sounds like John Wick Hell’s Kitchen edition. Pig in place of the Dog, Chef’s Syndicate in place of the Russian Mafia, a dead wife, a socially removed main character, extreme cooking skill instead of extreme combat skill. And I understand Nick Cage hates that comparison bc they are very different but I can’t help but see those synchronicities. But in my opinion Pig is much more depressing and more well executed than John Wick’s whole series.

I have been waiting for this for so long. I was afraid you'd never get around to reviewing this.

I wanted to see this when it was showing at my local theatre. Sadly I missed it. But I saw another movie he was in called 'Prisoners of the Ghostland'. You should totally check that out!

It's so crazy that the dude who play Amir is the brother to the guy who played "Light Turner" in that universally revilled live-action Deathnote movie on Netflix from 2017

My friend and I went in to this thinking it would be a nic rampage about finding his pig and would be balls to the wall. I went out of it bawling my eyes out and my friend and I just kinda sat there in awe. It was a fantastic movie and my new favorite.

John wick: you killed my dog Rob: you took my pig

I'm surprised he didn't beat anyone except a car.

I'm surprised these videos don't do as well! To be honest this content is my favorite of all your videos and your breakdown of the movies are so well done.

The chef at Eurydice gives my favorite performance in his short scene. This movie had me thinking a lot while watching it. And hurting, really picked at some scabs.9/10 for me.

Some of his performances are amazing! Raising Arizona, Leaving Las Vegas, Adaptation, Matchstick Men! Now he’s a working actor! That’s his 9-5. Not every project is gonna be the multi-million deal, but he does his job and he does it the best he can!

I don't get what makes this movie depressing. Obviously, all the characters have been through the thick of it in life, and the twist that the pig was dead all along was devastating for Robin. But by the end of the film, things were hopeful. Both Darius and Robin began to come to terms with the deaths of their wives, and Amir seemed like he was on the road to moving past his toxic mentality. Honestly, the movie had a really happy ending for me, even with all the sad stuff that happened in between.

Finding out about the fate of the pig was DEVASTATING. This movie looks really good though. I’ll put this on our movie night list.

Nick Cage is a legend. He may not be the best actor in the highest budget blockbusters, but no matter what role he's given, he plays it with A grade effort. His passion for being a movie star is super cool to see, I can tell he always has a good time filming these movies.

This was so good. Nice calm/raw performance from Cage. Mmm,mmm,mmm this was such a feast of a film. Portland’s landscape lends to really well to this atmosphere as well. Beautiful film.

I love all of your content and hope me and my fellow patreon supporters can keep on supporting you forever. Much love and thank you for making the somewhat boring days much more interesting! :=)

I started to watch Nicolas Cage new movies like mandy, The color out of space, and now pig because of Elvis and i really appreciate them as well as i appreciate Nick's acting , so thanks Elvis.

Nick is a huge inspiration to me. I base my acting on his . I'm good at alot of the same stuff as him I even am known by my colleagues as always giving it as hard no matter how small my role is or isn't lol

Finally! I have been waiting for this review! Thank you Elvis!

Pig was amazing. I hope he gets at least a nod from the Academy.

A genuinely-underrated Nic Cage movie is Bad Lieutenant. He plays the lieutenant in New Orleans who’s hooked on pain killers due to a back injury he sustained while trying to save someone in the middle of Hurricane Katrina. I’ve always liked it!

I went in thinking this would be a funny Nick Cage version of Taken, only with a pig, then ended up almost crying at the end. Pleasantly surprised.

I just want to let you know that i personally love the videos of you gushing about the movies this is the second one ive watched and ive cried both times ahaha. Keep on keeping on im excited to watch more!

We need to figure out nick’s power level

I absolutely loved this movie. So well crafted and a great message. Love how he "kicked ass" and felt like a very imposing figure without ever raising a hand to anyone.

As soon as you said you'd spoil it I impulsively went and saw it (which is something that I seldom do) and I have to say it was a great decision. One of my favourite scenes is when Rob and Amir are cooking together because it felt like Amir was experiencing a father-son bonding moment which he, maybe, never had had.

Watched it a month ago. Loved it. Nic Cage not being Nic Cage was refreshing. The Hereditary guy is also good. Simple film.

Been waiting for this review for a while!! So exicted!!

i love these reviews of movies you actually enjoy. keep em coming!

Pig is the antithesis of Mandy. One is about love and (potentially) forgiveness; the other is love and revenge.

It's not color grading, Oregon just has that effect on everything. The fires make it a horror movie.

I actually really enjoyed this movie, there's a certain uniqueness about it that I appreciate. I think its because nick is pretty quiet in this film and you dont see that often.

So it's John Wick but with a cooking, pig and Nicolas Cage? Perfection.

You really sound like a pro critique! In the best way, I love the terminology used to describe the characters and the vast knowledge you have of cinematography! I'm just always impressed and entertained by your videos!

When I saw this poster I literally just said “I can’t wait till Elvis makes a video on this”

You should review Vanquish next. It's a bad morgan freeman film that came out this year.

Love your serious reviews as much and possibly more as the silly ones, thank u 💞

best review I've seen you do, and I'm a big fan of your usual format. very cool departure from your norm. Thanks, Elvis

The cinematographer in this movie was so good. It was honestly the only thing that kept me watching. The story was very predictable but how it was shot and directed was really cool.

im a sucker for good cinematography😮‍💨

Much like a perfect dish, it’s tastefully beautiful.

I love that you find these little gems. Love your channel!

I was impatiently waiting for you to do a review of this movie. I personally loved it and it is one of, if not my favorite Nic Cage movies. Great review mate!

Nick's movie "next" was extremely fun to watch too.

I feel like Elvis is slowly turning into Nick Cage and we’re all along for the descent into madness lol

Been waiting for this review!!
