The Bad Lieutenant - Port of Call: New Orleans
There was surely no way it could live up to the hype. I mean, I love Herzog to death. I love Nic Cage when he's actually engaged. The reviews were great, the trailer was crazy. But it did. Its so good.
The first half is just a sleazy, strange cop film. The second half is brilliance unleashed. So funny and packed with great scenes and dialogue. There were moments that had the whole cinema falling about laughing, others that had them on the edge of their seats, literally. Often in the same scene. And it feels like its actually about something as well, rather than just being nihilistic or provocative. Its actually saying something about America, in the way that an outsider's perspective seems to carry so much more weight and subtlety.
I can't wait to see it again. Things I didn't expect: Val Fucking Kilmer. Brad Fucking Dourif. Jennifer Fucking Coolidge. Icing on the cake, though I would have liked more of Kilmer. His hair is to this film as Josh Brolin's 'stache is to American Gangster. Xzibit is actually very good in this too. Shea Whigham (asshole Pvt. Wilson from Tigerland) was great and hilarious. Fairuza Balk's ass was also great, though slightly less hilarious.
Believe the hype. Its a blast.Last edited by Ben Thomas; 06-03-2010, 04:22 PM.I experienced an invasion of my mind by a transcendentally rational mind, as if I had been insane all my life and suddenly I had become sane.

Not sure if any of you remember this one... but it's one of my all-time favorites.
'ffolkes' with Roger Moore as a misogynistic, cat-loving, scotchâ„¢ swilling ex-commando who must deal with Anthony Perkins and Michael Parks taking over a North Sea oil platform.
Andrew V. McLaglen of 'The Wild Geese' fame directed. Put it on your queue. Very entertaining.

"In The Mouth of Madness"
Yep. Still in my top 5 Carpenter flicks. Still gets to me and Sam Neill sells that shit hard. After finding out that Lesley loves Alan Wake but never saw this, I had to have her watch it. The ending still rocks IMO."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

I used to watch ffolkes all the time on cable back in the day! Moore was rocking a beard and doing needlepoint, and still kicked ass as a commando should. great performance by Perkins as well:
"I ... still ... don't ... like ... your ... face."
