Pride and Glory - Early Review


Pride and Glory


The film follows a multi-generational family of New York City cops whose moral code is tested when one of two sons on the force investigates a case involving his older brother and brother-in-law.

I can't publish much here but I will tell you that this film is NOT a must see at the Toronto Film Festival. It's chalked up with cliches and plays out like every other cop movies you have ever seen. In fact, at one point I honestly thought I'd seen the movie before it was just that familiar. I've heard through the vine that the movie has been re-cut a few times too and I'm sure early audiances may have felt the same way.
So I'm a pass on this one.
