Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans -#20

Why make a follow up to a controversial film that even director Werner Herzog didn’t think should be named after it since they share little to nothing in common? Because without that established IP we’d never get a chance to see Nicolas Cage smoke crack in a mainstream film. So, get ready for a bumpy drug filled romp through the streets of post-Katrina New Orleans as we breakdown an unnecessary follow up with a ridiculously long name: Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans.

After a back injury, “good cop turned bad” Terrence McDonagh is having a rough go of it. His painkiller addiction has spiraled out of control, he owes money all over town and the only person who can pull him back from the edge of destruction is his prostitute girlfriend.

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans reteams Nic with his Ghost Rider sweetheart Eva Mendes, stars two-time Academy nominee Michael Shannon, Pimp My Ride’s Xzibit, the always great in other things besides this movie Jennifer Colidge, the legendary and severely underutilized Val Kilmer and, the only man I want visiting my grandma in a nursing home, Academy Award winning actor, Nicolas Kim Coppola better known as Nicolas Cage.
