Pride and Glory
A cop drama starring Edward Norton, Colin Farrell and Join Voight for good measure? Can do no wrong, right? Well, so might not be the case for Pride and Glory.
Pride and Glory Reviewed
With cop dramas becoming just as popular as comicbook adaptations, the studios got to start ensuring that they make these thing right. I haven't heard the greatest things about Righteous Kill and it now looks like Pride and Glory will fail to impress.
Variety
With its focus on corruption and family angst among Irish-American New York cops, "Pride and Glory" feels like a film that should have been made at least 25 years ago. Or made as a period piece. Heavy, doom-laden and, unfortunately, entirely predictable, director Gavin O'Connor's murky drama applies epic aspirations to a story all too familiar from any number of films and TV shows. New Line sat on the film for so long it ran out of time to release it, so the task falls to Warner Bros. to try to milk a few bucks out of it, which won't be easy.
Well, I guess we're due a few misses before we get this genre right again. Can somebody place a call to Scorsese?
Pride and Glory opens to theaters on October 24th.
