Bad Lieutenant : Port of Call New Orleans *REVIEW* - Blu-ray Forum

Man, it's like Nicolas Cage has lived to play this role. I haven't seen him this talented since Leaving Las Vegas. This movie lives right on the edge and doesn't turn back until the last shot. Cage's character is unrelenting and unforgiving never looking back and only going forward.

I really enjoyed this film and hope Cage uses this as a step back to his old days.

Highly recommended.

I heard the director aparantly was after making this movie intentonally unintentionally bad.

You highly recommend this film, I like Nick Cage as well, but the movie has a lot of short comings. Let me know if you really know anything about what BAD means.

Thanks

Saw it this past weekend, and thought it was great. Good role for Nic Cage and I thought he played it well. Only thing I think would have made the movie better was a different ending.

No worries

It's not the end of the world..... yet
I haven't seen the original.

Sounds like it's a must see for me.

When Nic is good, he's really good and really really bad when he's bad.

master_8ball · 12-09-2009, 01:33 PM

Hey sorry Q didnt think of that... I edited my post if you care to do the same.

And this doesnt have anything to do with the original other than its about a bad cop.

Like I don't want to know wether a movie has a happy ending or dark ending.
I haven't seen the original.
Thank you.

Don't worry! The only thing this movie has in common with the original is the title. It is NOT a remake

The company that did the movie owns the rights to the original so they threw that in there.

Cool... now mikejet.. you too have to edit your response to me, my quote is a semi spoiler..
I hope his financial troubles won't lead him to worse projects, If it is at all possible...
Remake or not, I wasn't worried about that

So is it a spin off from the original! I'm just asking because something about the film was different. Nick Cage is great, but there was just something about!

thought this movie was great and one of nic cage's best roles for quite a long time...
