Fortunately, "We Have the Night" also has at least Jacques Phoenix.

I like this movie. Although the plot is too simple. Fortunately, there is also a performance by Jacques Phoenix. The performance of Jacques Phoenix is ​​so wonderful that you will forget the vase of Claudia Lopez and the hapless Mark Wahlberg (how can you show up with Jacques Phoenix?). Although she legally exposed half of her breasts at the beginning of the film. But Jacques Phoenix is ​​obviously not Justin Timberlake, and Claudia Lopez is not Jenny. My brother has no nose Jackson.
I am really dissatisfied with the plot. It simply spoiled the performance of Jacques Phoenix. I'm surprised how can such a stupid (why does his fierceness look so funny?) Russell cause such a big trouble for them? Why did the first undercover fail? Are they paying tribute to Lord Star's "The King of Comedy"? What worries me the most is that since it is a big case, since the troublesome character of Niu B is faced, why is the final solution so simple? This is too fucking foolish! In the end, the great street crime team of the New York Police Department almost found the clue they spent the entire movie looking for with their ass. Although the last clue was due to Jackie Phoenix's defection, it might have come too soon! ! ! Even if one more clue is added, 20 more minutes will be given to the ending?
In fact, if it is not such a powerful title, I think such a plot is acceptable, but the problem is that the title is we own the night. Compared with the literal translation of "We Have the Night", the other title "The Evil Club" is more appropriate. All the stories revolve around such a club, and there is no shadow of a street crime group! Where's the street? The streets I fucking love! ! !
Finally, I have to reiterate my love for Jacques Phoenix. He is really dazzling, his performance makes everyone else sad, you have to focus all on him. Especially when he was in tears, it was really moving! This is true even when the character is the evil Commode in "Gladiator." Mark Wahlberg is a great mallet by his side (although I also like Mark Wahlberg, but this time I really can't be sure of him). I think that the future achievements of Jacques Phoenix should not lose to Al Pacino. I hope he can meet his Coppola and his "Godfather" soon.

    In the car chase scene in the rain, Bobby witnessed his father being shot to death and Bobby shot Vartine at the end. These two scenes are very exciting.

    James Gray and Joaquin Phoenix are a perfect match. Whether it's in "Two Lovers" or here, the four-cornered love and police and bandit films are so classically dull, tacky and counter-routine, full of emotions and depressing, I like it so much! The half-push and half-finished undercover scene, the cringe in the car chase scene in the rain, and the death-to-death scene in the final shootout scene are amazing! what!
