Synopsis:
What if your own family stood in the way of everything you worked for? Bobby Green (Joaquin Phoenix) has forsaken his name to escape his family and their tradition in law enforcement to pursue his ambitions as a Brooklyn nightclub owner. As he turns a blind eye to the drug dealers around him, he comes face to face with the family he abandoned when his brother (Mark Wahlberg) and father (Robert Duvall) crack down on the club. Now Bobby must choose a side. Is he going to turn informant or will he help run the biggest crime ring in New York history?

CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
The crime drama We Own the Night is getting mostly so-so reviews from critics. Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times writes somewhat unenthusiastically that "the film is made with confidence and energy and is well acted by the principals." But Jack Mathews in the New York Daily News comments that the plot quickly "goes wrong" and "turns into something barely at the level of a TV cop show." Liam Lacey in the Toronto Globe and Mail takes a middle position. "For most viewers, the film will probably be a trade-off," he writes. "Some clichd plotting is balanced by some splendid set-pieces." Or as Peter Howell puts it in the rival Toronto Star: ""It's not that it's so terrible, but it is terribly similar to so many other police dramas at the movies and on TV."
