We Own the Night..Good Movie Could have been better.

[mgonzo2u]

Being from So Cal, I am very familiar with the real news out of the Rampart division.

That division has a very shady real life history.

Being a friend of multiple law enforcement types from CHP to a local Orange County city I was raised in, I know shady real life badge carriers all over the place.

I could write a few scripts myself.

Be safe out there.

Movie was okay but not up to all the hype. It felt like it was missing that special something that could have made it great. Don't know what it is, but there was a void.

This ain't a vampire flick though.

Dwight: I saw Wedding Crashers accidentally. I bought a ticket for Grizzly Man and went into the wrong theatre. After an hour, I figured I was in the wrong theatre, but I kept waiting. That's the thing about bear attacks, they come when you least expect it.

Actually,I think you are thinking of 30 days of night.

Yes I was sorry about. Have my netflix copy of We Own the Night sitting on my coffee table but just haven't watched it yet. Sorry to jump in with the wrong movie.

I am also very critical of cop movies as I am also a police officer. I agree with you, especially the bust at the end. I remember making a comment to my friend who was watching it with me that in real life, they would have blocked all the exits first, and Mark Walburgh probably wouldn't have used a megaphone. I'm surprised Joaquin Phoenix didn't die just for bein an idiot and chasing the guy blindly. But overall, pretty enteraining flick, especially the opening scene!

Nicely done topcop, glad I'm not the only law enforcement around here. I'd say welcome to Blu - but you already are.


Perfectly stated, Phoenix should have died just for being an idiot.
