Is it me or has Mamet been fucking up his recent films?

I've been sort of a Mamet junkie for years, but as of late looks like actors are not really important in his grand scheme of things any longer, since they all deliver more or less the same lines in Heist, The Spanish Prisoner, Spartan. I think it all started with the House of Games and Homicide; short one-liners, like - give me this, I want that, give it to me now,etc etc. It doesn't matter if it's Val Kilmer of William H. Macy or Joe Mantegna or Gene Hackman; they're all one persona, looks like.

I haven't seen the State and Main yet. Looks like it could be fun.
