This review only needs to consist of six words: Werner Herzog. Nicolas Cage. Bad Lieutenant. Not every one of those elements (with the possible exception of Herzog's name) is enough to sell a movie on its own, but the combination? Most definitely. Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (Edward R. Pressman Films) isn't really a remake of Bad Lieutenant, Abel Ferrara's 1992 exploration of a crooked...

FROM MTV.COM: Seventeen years ago, the legendary Harvey Keitel launched the second act of his movie career with a pair of tough-guy instant classics: Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs" and Abel Ferrara's "Bad Lieutenant." A crack-pipe-smoking breath of fresh air, "Lieutenant" predated "The Shield" by a decade in telling the NC-17 story of a junkie, [...]

Baby did a bad, bad thing: Lieutenant McDonagh (Nicolas Cage) during a reflective moment in the midst of his usual drinking, leching, and lying. It's difficult to enter into Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans expecting a comedy. That's despite a title more ridiculous and unwieldy than even a CSI spin-off would accept, and a trailer that features star Nicolas Cage waxing rhapsodic on his lucky...

I love every film by director Werner Herzog I've seen, starting with 1982's Fitzcarraldo and culminating most recently in his wonderful if sad Grizzly Man . I like Nicolas Cage a lot, especially when the actor is at his most histrionic in such offbeat movies as Peggy Sue Got Married , Raising Arizona and Face/Off . I do not like the new Herzog-Cage collaboration, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans...

As a sex- and drug-addicted cop whose conscience drowned long before the rising waters of Hurricane Katrina engulfed the Big Easy, Nicolas Cage swings from heroin's slow-mo to coke-fed frenetic, giggling madness in Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans .

There's a deranged grandeur to Nicolas Cage's performance in " Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans ," in which he plays a police officer who plunges into drug addiction after a heroic on-the-job accident. Cage throws himself into a role of a man not so much battling as fervidly dancing with his...

Not since Snakes On A Plane has the line between movie and Internet meme been as confused as it is with Werner Herzog and Nicolas Cage’s remake of the Abel Ferrara shocker Bad Lieutenant . When the project was first announced at Cannes, it immediately triggered reaction along the lines of “What kind of crazy train wreck is that going to be?” And once the wondrously insane teaser trailer...

“Anything’s possible in this storm!” says the man with the badge in Werner Herzog’s delirious “Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans,” a true feat of daring and one of the craziest films of the year. It’s a very loose...

Cinema's wildest and wiliest animal, Werner Herzog has recently flirted with domestic respectability — casting Batman Christian Bale in his manic war movie Rescue Dawn , and winning some of the best reviews of his career for his bear-bites-man documentary Grizzly Man . So when he cast National Treasure 's Nicolas Cage to star in his in-name-only remake of Abel Ferrara's Bad Lieutenant , well,...

The term remake has predominantly negative connotations, but once in awhile we see proof that a redo can be a good thing. Just look at Werner Herzog's new film, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans , which isn't quite a remake of Abel Ferrara's Bad Lieutenant so much as it's a stand-alone sequel or simply another filmmaker's take on the same sort of character explored in the original. It's enough...

Werner Herzog and Nicolas Cage’s Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans , a new take on Abel Ferrara’s original movie, arrives this week. Pitched on the edge of insanity, the film is basically an extended hallucination posing as a cop drama, and it got us thinking about other movie drug trips. We limited this list to actual drugged-out sequences, so a couple of our favorite drug- related...

In his schlocky paycheck movies, Nicolas Cage glowers and throws tantrums, as if trying to prove he really means it, man. He does the same thing in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, Werner Herzog's loopy and improbably entertaining remake of the 1992 Abel Ferrara dark-side-of-everything cult classic. Except that Cage is now doing his operatic bug-eyed intensity thing because the role actually...

From the official website of valiant filmmaker Werner Herzog's latest feature, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans , which should not be called a remake of Abel Ferrara's grimy 1992 cult classic: Nicolas Cage plays a rogue detective who is as devoted to his job as he is at scoring drugs—while playing fast and loose with the law. He wields his badge as often as he wields his...
