Review of Bad Lieutenant (1992) by David T — 15 Aug 2009

I found this very average.

Yeah, it will shock. It's not every week you watch a movie where a nun gets raped by a bunch of junkies and the law are possibly just as despicable but it all seemed to be purely for the sake of shocking people and not with any real direction or grit.

How can we get people to be shocked? Maybe if we have a scene where a nun gets raped, that should do the trick...oh and for good measure let's have Jesus in it, hallucination or not it will shock people.

For instance Straw Dogs has a shocking rape scene in it but it is there for a reason.

Anyway, It's obviously highly rated by most and each to their own I guess...I was just expecting a whole lot more. x3 Stars but could be less in truth.
