We Own the Night (2007)

Directed by
James Gray

This gritty and effective crime thriller stars Joaquin Phoenix, Mark Wahlberg and Robert Duvall.

Club manager Bobby Green (Phoenix, pictured) lives the high-life with glamorous girlfriend Amada Juarez (Eva Mendes, pictured), running hotspot El Caribe for dodgy Russian businessman Vadim Nezhinski (Alex Veadov). Bobby has a dangerous secret: his estranged brother (Wahlberg) and father (Duvall) are narcotics cops, and Nezhinski is their number-one target. When the police investigation ends up in an all-out war between the drug dealers and the law, Bobby has to choose a side - a decision that could cost him Amada, and his life...

Directed by James Gray, Wahlberg and Phoenix inhabit their roles with convincing ease. Each new revelation and double-cross ratchets up the tension while the decaying decadence of late-1980s New York creates an atmosphere of near-constant menace.
