    In We Own the Night, Joaquin Phoenix, whose eyes burn with sullen anger even when he's looking at the woman he loves, plays Bobby Green, a nightclub manager in the 1980s who gets caught between his blood family he tried to leave behind--a long line of police officers--and his chosen family of friends and business partners, who turn out to be drug dealers. His father (Robert Duvall) and brother (Mark Wahlberg) want Bobby to help their investigation, but Bobby resists--until the conflict takes a brutal turn. Writer/director James Gray wears his influences on his sleeve; he's clearly seen every movie that Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola ever made and aspires to follow in their footsteps. The familiarity of the movie's territory dilutes its impact, but the plot of We Own the Night remains unpredictable, the performances have a clean vitality, and Gray's moody visual style brings some life to the genre. Phoenix (Walk the Line) dives into his role, sifting through layers of guilt and familial resentment; Wahlberg and Duvall play parts they've essentially played a dozen times, but do so with commitment and integrity. Also featuring Eva Mendes (Ghost Rider) as Bobby's devoted girlfriend, who questions just how much she'll have to give up for him. --Bret Fetzer

    4 out of 5 stars Above average cop drama   July 1, 2009
    Bradley F. Smith (Miami Beach, FL)
    You've seen these characters and these settings about a million times before, but the actors here are still compelling enough to make this come to life. Joaquin Phoenix is great as the conflicted nightclub manager forced to jilt his druggie business associates and join forces with his cop family to bust a big drug deal in 1980s NYC. You know the plot and the outcome already, but this is still quality entertainment. Robert Duvall is great as the police chief father.

    A stunningly disappointing outing for Messrs. Wahlberg, Phoenix and Gray precisely because we all know - courtesy of 'The Yards' - just what kind of sublime cinema these gentlemen are capable of creating together with the right kind of material. There are two movies here. The first is a well-crafted, character-driven drama focused on what are, admittedly, somewhat hackneyed themes - a family torn by the tensions between the tearaway black sheep of the family living on the fringes of gangland and his strait-laced cop brother and father. This movie, which ends around the half-way mark following a cleverly innovative car chase, and which is almost worth watching if only for Ms. Mendes's breathtaking decolletage, is replaced by something which even Steven Seagal might have turned his nose up at unless he was short the price of a large pastrami sandwich. Stretches belief I know but trust me. Even my Better Half, who can quite happily watch David Caruso in 'CSI:Miami' for days on end without so much as a snigger, was convulsed with uncontrollable giggles at the laughable quality of both script and acting in the last 30 minutes.

    After what was an almost Oscar-worthy turn in 'The Departed' a couple of years back, Mark Wahlburg seems to have decided that a paycheck is a paycheck. Toward the end of the movie he sits in the passenger seat of a police car with his head resting on the window, eyes drained of all emotion. One can only imagine that he has suddenly realized just how terrible the script is. Oh and Eva, Eva, Eva.......We love you but you have to start checking the scripts first rather than going straight to the costume department.

    If you have to spend the money, spend it on a copy of 'The Yards'.

    Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix, Robert Duvall and Eva Mendes all great actors in a great action packed crime drama. Excellent movie.

    Was okay movie, okay storyline (we've seen it before), did not care for Eva Mendez. There are some scenes full of action and suspense. Rental.


    5 out of 5 stars well done, well done, well done   March 30, 2009
    Rebecca Harding (Maine)
    Actually I began to think the title was not fit for such a movie, then I tried to think of one that would, and it hit me, We Own The Night is one movie full of love, family devotions. It has the tenseness wanted in such a powerful film of that era. I can't say enough about the actors, excellent. One heck of a ride movie, if you like drama, sit on the edge of your seat movies, this one is it! My recommendation is buy buy buy a well done movie
