Pride and Glory

ok... a li'l introduction on what would at least in some way revive this blog...
it's been pretty much dead for sometime now... so, what i suggest is instead of putting up other stuff, people are encouraged to put up movie reviews... i know, it is not something you would have the patience to do... but give it a shot...
i thought this might be good because very often i see  quite a few of us asking around which movie would be a good watch and which ones are not worth... so this...

Pride and Glory(2008)

Edward Norton
Collin Farrel
Lake Bell ( the female from first season of Boston Legal)
Jon Voight

this is a story of a Family dedicated to the NYPD...  pop - a high ranking cop... one son is a detective, the other the head of a precinct... son-in-law cop under the head-precinct son...
although the whole family is in law enforcement... it's not a family drama... its not a conventional good cop-bad cop movie either... 

its  like the story writer got confused as to which one of the two story lines he wanted to pick... and it ended up becoming this movie...

only thing i could get in the whole movie was the " WE PROTECT OUR OWN" - the sole motto of the police when they get in a tight spot!

not a movie that you would want to waste your time on, if you don't have it...
considering it was a Ed Norton - Colin Farrel movie... it was a disappointment!

Not a bad idea. I might even do book reviews...
