Not what I expected and that was a pleasant surprise.This is in my opinion Nicholas Cage's best role. I'm not a big fan of his, and usually avoid his films, but this one really shocked me not only with the content, but his acting ability. He basically plays a burned out police lieutenant (don't know how he rose to that rank), with a number of drug and alcohol addictions that is in love with a hooker (Ava Mendes) and who is constantly shaking down the citizens of New Orleans to feed his crack and cocaine addiction. Seems plausible, this is New Orleans ya know?Anyway, he gets all hosed up with the mob cause he cant cover his bets, and then he finds Xzibit who is obviously not in charge of the city library, and gets even more whacked out and starts halucinating about iguanas (which I've done too) and people soul dancing after they get shot a whole bunch of times so this is all pretty much my normal everyday thing, but you might have never witnessed this before thats why I'm writing this review.BTW, Fairuza Balk >>>>> Smoking HOT!Very good, highly underrated and darkly comic movie. Its funny, ya heard me? 4 Pipes!
