Here's the current RT rating- http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/bad_lieutenant_port_of_call_new_orleans/ 87% - that's fresh.

As pointed out the all reviews have all been universally positive and more so

The film appeared on several critics' lists of "best films of 2009", including:

Roger Ebert: top 10 "mainstream films" of 2009[24]

Aidil Rusli of The Malaysian Insider: favourite movies from 2009[25]

Josh Tyler of Cinema Blend: top 10 films of 2009[26]

The Canadian Press: top 10 films of 2009[27]

Kim Morgan of The Huffington Post: #2 among top 10 fil
ms of 2009[28]

Stan Hall of The Oregonian: #1 among "foreign language and indie films of 2009"[29]

It seems that the public and critics are for once universally liking this film.

There are 6 reviews on RT. Give it it time. Also, I love Herzog too, but I guarantee this rating falls to under 70% by release.

Actually all the reviews that I've seen so far, besides this, have been very good. The "bad" review you posted a link to was made by someone who hadn't even seen the film yet. I'm really excited about the film because I'm a big Fairuza Balk fan. She doesn't do many movies so I set up an alert for any reviews made for the film. All of them have been positive so far. Some of them say some really great things about Fairuza as well :)

If you don't believe me go to rottentomatoes.com and do a search for the film. It has a 100% rating so far :)
