    My expectations were way to high for this movie. It was way too predictable for me. I feel like I've seen it like 10 times before.

    Well made but slightly underwhelming cop/mafia saga. The performers are fine but Phoenix can't carry the drama like Pacino would. Gray set himself a real challenge entering the cop genre with so many classic films preceding and sadly this falls in their shadow.

    Average flick, couldn't make my mind up on how to score this, the plot is maybe abit OTT but with a cast of Joaquin Phoenix, Mark Wahlberg and Robert Duvall (oh, and Eva Mendes as the CANDY) was always gonna keep me interested...this was still an enjoyable fare...didn't get to American Gangster or Departed level but it can stand on it's own two feet as a valid attempt.

    Two-thirds of the movie is pure-imitation Scorcesean crime drama, featuring Mark Wahlberg reprising his 'Departed' role as a bitter cop with a fetishistic tendency of saying 'fuck.' The other third is filled with tired dialogue such as 'It's going to be okay, baby,' glitzy drug use scenes, and Eva Mendes.

    The movie was okay because the story was good but it didnt really grab my attention, most of the scenes bored me.
