      A popular gangster film exhibitors Why can the Cannes Film Festival? Under scrutiny, its own original way.

      A undercover story. Half an hour spectacle that is the United States Infernal Affairs, to the middle of it was found that police version.

      A little thought


      1 It is different from fighting and killing in a simple sense, the confrontation between sin and evil. This film adds a reasonable "humanity" before the general "sin" and "evil" performance. This also makes the "saving disaster" actor in the general police and gangster film transformed into a "saving relatives" actor. It makes the audience feel a lot more cordial, and also makes the empty and old-fashioned plot more realistic and inherently motivated.

      2 Another point, in the...

      Why do mainland police and gangster movies feel so fake, because the characters in them have no "humanity"!

      "We Own The Night" (We Own The Night), the last of James Gray's New York trilogy and his third feature film, is still nominated for the Cannes Film Festival that year.

      A clichéd police film, a history of gangsters and police entanglements, but because of James Gray's dispatch, it has become so fascinating that it gives the audience a completely different experience of police and criminals in the deviant.

      The black temperament created by "We Own the Night" is absolutely...

      Another version of The Yards

      I watched James Gray's The yards and we own the night for two consecutive days. Although the two films had a 7-year difference in shooting time, the similarity was as high as 90%. First of all, the leading roles are Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Wahlberg (and they are both brothers) and the beautiful female protagonists. The story is about the opposition between good and evil, the same gang tune, the same strong decadence, and they have also won the Cannes Palme d’Or Nominate. The only difference is...

      The plot is basically the routine of an old Hong Kong film, nothing new, and it's not really exciting. But what really shines is the emotion, the emotion drives the plot, and the emotion comes first. If it's badly done, it's undoubtedly too artificial and fake, but James Grey did a good job, the film is charming, and the actors are...

      After little Odessa and the family feud, Gray once again explores the fate of the family. Fate-like family bonds force you to step from night to day. Gray's atmosphere is first-rate, Joaquin Phoenix is...

      There is a little shock at the end. In addition, it is plain, because it does not use so many dazzling high-tech detection methods, it is nothing but forbearance, bravery, and...

      It's a very simple movie, and it doesn't have any bright spots. It finally starts to tell the story after 60 minutes. Very Hong Kong-style gangster...

He did not hesitate to refuse...

    Evaluation action

    "We Own the Night" puts a story about family love, betrayal, crime and punishment completely at night, but the focus is not how the police and drug dealers fight wits and courage, but how a pair of opposing brothers let go of each other Dissatisfaction, and how a prodigal son who scorned the background of the police family finally turned around. Joaquin Rafael Bottom exquisitely interprets Bobby's fear, entanglement, bravery, and...

    • Joseph Grusinsky: I don't need any more guns in my life, that's for sure. But you should have one to be safe. It's better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.
