We Own the Night Reviews
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
As flat-footed as writer-director James Gray's script often sounds, his cops-vs.-mob tale can be strangely mesmerizing.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
This one hangs on the notion of fate, and once you've figured out whose fate is the central issue, the outcome -- even with those clumsy plot twists -- is fairly predictable.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Once again finds Gray breathing gritty, electric life into a conventional tale.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
This is complex stuff, and Gray gives it a sense of gravity that comes through not only in the acting-with Phoenix's increasingly heavy-souled performance anchoring things in nearly every shot-but also the filmmaking.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
An intriguing blend of mainstream audience-pleaser and a more subtle, even intellectual agenda.
NPR.org
Bob Mondello
It's not surprising, but it's engaging enough that most patrons will likely cut the director some slack for the out-of-period details and convoluted plot contrivances that make the film seem at once sloppy and too neat.
CNN.com
Paul Clinton (CNN.com)
Time will tell, but from where I'm sitting this deceptively routine cop movie runs deep. In fact, it already looks like a classic. Cagney and Tracy would be proud.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
[With so many] plot twists and turns, it's almost like a bad parody of a Western.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Too slow to be a guilty pleasure and too dumb to be an innocent one, We Own the Night doesn't say a lot except We Own a Lot of Scorsese DVDs.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
Gray's skill with meting out suspense pays considerable dividends.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
All the picture really needed, though, was a little more sweat and grit and a little less concern about its own self-importance.
New Yorker
Anthony Lane
Gray steeps his tale in murky complication, and the staging of every scene, be it downbeat or frantic, is so assured that you barely notice the implausibilities.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Wahlberg, unfortunately, is over the top, and not in the good way he was in Scorsese's The Departed.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
Gray deserves some credit, though, for making a movie that seems deeper and more resonant than it turns out to be.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Gray's craftsmanship is admirable, which shows some old-fashioned reverence for the triangulated composition of Scene, Character, Plot and avoids, by and large, the snazzy edits and visual bling that pass for a cinematic imagination these days.
UGO
Brian Tallerico
You can almost see them give up about halfway through, beaten down by a script that gives them almost no character development or interesting action.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
May not have much new to say about the war on drugs...but it says it awfully well.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
A robust, respectable cop movie.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This is an atmospheric, intense film, well acted, and when it's working it has a real urgency.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Wahlberg do a lot of the talking, great mumbling. Two of the movies' master mutterers, they supply a double tour-de-force of indifference to enunciation, steamrolling the English language until it sounds like some other dialect.
