WE OWN THE NIGHT - TRAILER
August 5th 2007 03:01
OK, I’ll admit that the main reason this film, We Own the Night caught my attention was because of Mark Wahlberg, I think he’s hot stuff. But I don’t think the film will be for me, but then again who knows, I could be surprised.
The film has received positive reviews everywhere it has been shown, including the Cannes Film Festival. The cast includes Oscar nominees Mark Wahlberg and Joaquin Phoenix and is written and directed by James Gray, who worked with both Wahlberg and Phoenix on his last movie called The Yards back in 2000.
The story is set at the height of a bloody 1980s struggle between New York cops and a Russian mob that targeted law officers and their families. Mark Wahlberg and Joaquin Phoenix play siblings in a cop-dominated family, with Phoenix the black sheep who ends up managing a Russian mob-controlled nightclub. The Russians and their kingpin Vadim have no rules of engagement-they will kill anyone to get their message across, including family. So when they declare war on the police, Bobby is forced to decide between his life and his family.
