We Own the Night (DVD)
Being a fan of films involving mobsters and crime syndicates, We Own the Night was a definite must see for me. The film itself will never be considered a classic mob movie, but I did enjoy most of the feature.
First off, I must mention that the casting of the movie was superb. I won’t hid the fact that there were some instances where I felt that several characters were under developed, but overall I was satisfied with the outcome. Joaquin Phoenix in particular, who played the lead role of Bobby Green had definitely put on one of his most convincing performances thus far in his career.
The plot of the film was your basic gangster type material. As with films such as Scarface, the Godfather, and Heat, We Own the Night focused primarily on the glamorization of the mobster lifestyle and the consequences that come along with it.
