I wasn't really able to get into this film. Edward Norton did an excellent job, which made this movie worth the watch.

Solid, but not exceptional in any way. It has a couple of good moments, but a fair share of pretty bad ones too, particuarly the terrible Norton/Farrell fight scene in the Irish bar. There's nothing too original here, and to be honest if you never see it you won't be missing much. But if this movie does come your way, it is still a perfectly okay watch.

I naturally enjoy crooked cops but this upset me a lot it was just boring and not attentive.

Norton is brilliant, he never misses picking up the roles. Story is a bit clishe...but overall i'll say....aaaaaa ok!

i liked this although I'm not a fan of these kind of movies but this one is different, very good acting by Norton & Farrell.

Well acted and directed but the story is clichéd and offers nothing new.

I was really close on recommending this film, but because of the unsatisfying ending I say pass on this film. Edward Norton gives a good performance but the script has some slow moments and a weak ending

Boring

Fair enough, it has it's problems (that stupid bar fight scene belonged to a completly seperate film) but it has some amazing scenes and at times the acting is top notch

Ed Norton's great. But, rest of the cast are disappointing. Something like that. It's not a bad film but it's nothing great. Very forgettable.

With all these great actors, It was a pretty big let down. Story was really weak, and the movie was boring.

Its not original, it wont take your breath away but many of the reviews seem overly harsh. A decent watch if perhaps an all too familiar film landscape. Ed Norton as always impresses.

boring as hell... lame story, bad acting

What a surprise that this by-the-numbers procedural film about crooked cops and family ties actually holds up well amidst all the cliches it's been brewed in. It's not exactly action-driven as it's definitely a pure-bred drama, but it is well-acted and interesting. Too bad some of the minor characters aren't developed more - but Norton, Farrell and Voight have decent performances. I'm recommending this because it's more exciting than the recent "We Own the Night" and "Street Kings" combined.

It's your standard by numbers cop drama movie. Ed Norton gives a great performance, but everyone else is severely lacking. I thought the scene where Norton fights Colin Farrell at the end in the bar was awesome though.

Yet another movie about corrupt cops. Not particularly engaging, not very original.

While there are some golden moments to be found, like Ed Norton's performance, most of the film is very unbalanced. Some of the characters are one dimensional cardboard bullcrap too, ruining the theater experience for me. A decent Crime Drama overall.

I've seen it all before and alot of the scenes bored the hell out of me because I know what it's all about. Cop family where some are honest and some are not and they get into all sorts of drama. And I don't wanna see another cop funeral in my life. It adds nothing. It's like showing someone take a piss, in slow motion, with only music in the background. That said, it's better than most of the movies it has "copied".

Edward Norton continues to make medicore films after a brilliant start to his career.

Great plot. Edward Norton does a great job as always, as does Colin Farrell.
