I know I've seen Leaving Las Vegas, but I don't remember much about it. I think that's the only really "serious" role I've seen him in, and I think he won an Oscar for it (not that that actually means fuck-all). I think maybe I just prefer less serious bullshit movies, in general.
I've never seen Leaving Las Vegas, but for a long time I conflated it with Snake Eyes (which I had seen) and wondered how it was an award winner.
I think rein it in might not be the ideal phrasing, because I don't really think Cage is 100% out of control 100% of the time
I would guess that he's an actor who comes to the set with a fully formed interpretation of the character he wants to play, and you need to either direct the hell out of him to get something else or work around what he's doing and make it fit with the rest of the movie
I mean this in a good way: this would play at the gym to get people pumped.
I already did 100+ pushups today and that made me wanna do moooooore

They are in a restaurant. Bateman accidentally breaks a class, due to his crab claw hands. He gets aggitated, and the waiter arrives to defuse the situation, and asks if they're ready to order.
But oh no, he hasn't realized that Bateman has crab arms, and suggest a romantic share meal, consisting entirely of different types of crab claws. It's awkward, and the waiter leaves.
McCarthy gingerly asks about the incident that turned Bateman's arms into crab arms.
It turns out a radioactive crab bit him on the junk while he was skinny dipping.
McCarthy takes his claw hand, and starts rubbing butter on it. He looks down, asks what she's doing.
"Just buttering your knuckle", she replies, and winks at him.
End of scene.
Anyway, Netflix' Thunder Force isn't very good.

Watched Thunder Force. All the bits between McCarthy and Bateman were fantastic, as was Bateman overall (no surprise there as he can quietly steal whatever scene he's in with ease). The movie was pretty uneven otherwise.
I know this is a joke but it is true. She's been in quite a few mediocre films he has directed, and since the budgets will probably be somewhat low, I assume she is doing them because he is her husband, but she's ultimately not doing herself any favours. But at the same time these shitty films are all being made through her production company co-founded WITH her husband, so maybe she isn't blinded by love and is just working at the Adam Sandler school of "pocket the inflated budget between her and her husband" and churn out some piece of crap that still trades on the name she made 10 years ago in Bridesmaids.

Yeah, I didn't like it overall, but all the Bateman bits are pretty good, from his first scene where he does a little sideways crab scuttle, to the pretty insane ending bit where (actual spoilers):
He feeds McCarthy raw chicken from his little nub of a crab claw (previously in the movie he had his crab arms ripped off by the bad guy, so he's growing new pincers), and it ends on a shot of them Lady and the Tramp-style eating a strip of raw chicken, each just sucking on an end of it
Also, the spicy sex scene.

He had a T-Rex skull for a little! but it was stolen property and he had to give it back
Yeah, that's a much better way of putting it
Hm
That song feels like it felt out of portal straight from the early to mid aughts
And not in a super fun way
e: oh no I just hit the dubstep section, okay, we’ve shifted timelines to the 2010s and it’s not any better

ANd really, just use the original song. It's somehow timeless despite being the most 90's ass thing imaginable.
But if you’re gonna modernize it you gotta make it slap harder than this

It's a bad film with some gorgeous visuals.

That’s about as good as I expected it to be.
I don’t hate it.
This is what would be on the speakers in the modern/current version of Blade's bloodrave.
You can't top the Bloodbath song. You just can't.

it is not
it was written and directed by her husband

from what i've seen they seem pretty into each other and they're getting paid for it so i think she'd disagree

I think this is going to be a bad movie
there's a world where that could work but yeah there's a much higher chance of bad
