Don't you ever believe the yak about it as realistic, character study, social commentary, and sophisticated arty piece of cinema. It's baloney; and I mean this movie, along with that yak!
Someone even said that this is a wonderful black comedy. Baby, this movie isn't, your title is!
When a movie is tedious to agonizing extent, uninteresting in nearly every way, and doesn't say much about anything, then we're talking about (Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans)!
Can we say pointless too?! Yeah, why not!
It just immersed in showing the corruption and insanity of its lead character, till it became corrupted and insane itself. And while Lizards have a series of small bones that run down their back, this movie doesn't have bones at all.
By the way, I awfully hate the torrents of sex, drugs, and profanities in movies under whatever reasons. There is a grave difference between expressing ugly characters, and being ugly yourself!
Objectively, this is a crime drama that tried to say something deep, about certain character, through different style. And, fairly, this is a movie that tried to be distinct, but didn't have the abilities, hence ended up as a really bad joke.
Imagine someone who wants to be bigger than himself, however fails miserably, since he doesn't know any right way to do it. It's painful and sad. But why to imagine in the first place, this movie is a good example for that!
Finally, Bad Lieutenant, bad movie. It's like a comedy gone wrong; with tons of bore, and no laughs. Even the title is long and goes nowhere!
PS: "Many reviewers received the movie with largely positive reviews", "Several critics put it in their lists of Best Movies of 2009", and "A lot of Film Festivals nominated it for awards, or awarded it already". Well, my only comment is: I hope you will get better soon!
