“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” Movie Review
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” Plot Summary
Tells the story of Benjamin Button, a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences.
A great, worth film
This film is worthy of a 10/10 rating simply because of its imaginative and complex nature, I mean, I couldn’t bring myself to know why this simple idea of a man aging backwards hadn’t sprouted up before. Set all the way back at the end of the Great War, to New Orlean’s meeting with Hurricane Katrina, this movie tells the story of Benjamin Button, a baby born an old man of eighty, destined to die in the mere form of a zero-year-old. I found this movie very emotional and special because there’s reeally nothing like it. I honestly thought, when I found out the immense length of the film, it was going to be boring….I was wrong, it gripped me from start to finish. There are many emotional and touching scenes in it, including the end, where it brings forth Benjamin Button’s ‘younger’ years as an old man. Nothing went wrong with the cast, Brad Pitt played a great job as a reverse-aging man, and Cate went well as his childhood friend. Overall, this movie was great and I recommend it to anyone who loves the genre.

“The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call – New Orleans” Movie Review
“The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call – New Orleans” Plot Summary
Terence McDonagh is a drug- and gambling-addled detective in post-Katrina New Orleans investigating the killing of five Senegalese immigrants. add synopsis
Wonderful movie
I finally got to see this a few days ago after waiting quite a while. Being a big fan of Nic Cage, and being frustrated by his recent work, I pretty much had to make the 40 minute drive to see his first movie in a few years that had been getting mostly positive reviews
It was absolutely worth it. Port of Call is hilarious from start to finish, there was never a dull moment. Nic Cage is incredibly entertaining as the drug-addled ‘bad’ lieutenant Terence McDonagh. It was a ton of fun watching him go completely crazy on-screen, wondering what he would do next. Eva Mendes puts in a great performance as Cage’s prostitute girlfriend (again?). Val Kilmer is good too but unfortunately he’s only in a few scenes. I was a little worried after seeing Xzibit in the cast list but he plays his role well
One important thing to remember about this film is that it is absolutely not intended to be taken seriously. Unlike Ferrara’s film, which was extremely gritty and dead-serious, Herzog’s Bad Lieutenant is a very black comedy. To go into this film expecting a cop drama with a dramatic performance by Cage is a recipe for disaster
Which reminds me, don’t go into this expecting anything that resembles Ferrara’s 1992 ‘Bad Lieutenant’. The two have nothing in common other than the premise of a drug-addicted corrupt cop. ‘Port of Call’ actually wasn’t intended to be a remake, adding ‘Bad Lieutenant’ to the title was a commercial decision (why, I don’t know, Bad Lieutenant is relatively obscure).
If you’re lucky enough to have a theater nearby playing this, go see it right now. ‘Port of Call’ is a massive comeback for Nic Cage and I seriously believe he deserves to at least be nominated for an Academy Award
Just leave your 4th year film student friend home.
