Critics Consensus

Formulaic in its plotting and cliched in its dialogue, Pride and Glory does little to distinguish itself from other police procedurals.

Jim Schembri The Age (Australia) Hard to watch, hard to listen to and hard to follow. Rated: 1.5/5 Feb 13, 2009 Full Review David Stratton The Australian The actors in Pride and Glory do their best with this cliched material, but the film is so grim, ugly and miserable that it's difficult to sympathise with even the most positive characters. Rated: 2/5 Feb 6, 2009 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald While its kinetic appeal does have a numbing - if temporary effect - on your critical faculties, television has been much more successful in claiming this territory as its own. Rated: 3/5 Feb 5, 2009 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins In its attempt to expose corruption, greed, and massive unscrupulousness, the film produces zero likeable characters and many unnecessary pieces. Rated: 3/10 Nov 28, 2020 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row By the end O'Connor has achieved something that, while not quite extraordinary, is still quite notable for the tension it builds and its powerhouse payoff. Rated: 3/4 Jul 7, 2019 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...another strong drama from a seriously underrated filmmaker. Rated: 3/4 Jun 18, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Hughe J Pride and Glory was released in theatres in 2008 and stars Edward Norton, Colin Farrell, Jon Voight, and Noah Emmerich. It's a story about a family of NYPD officers and a corruption investigation that threatens to tear the family apart. The officers portrayed in the movie repeatedly lie during investigations, commit crimes, and even murder suspects. To be fair the acting was pretty good, especially Norton and Farrell, but the plot was just too ridiculous to take seriously. I get that they were going for a gritty police drama but all of this has been done before in better movies with better writing. For me this was an average at best cop movie with unlikeable characters and a bad ending. I'd skip this and watch Serpico or The Departed instead. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/26/25 Full Review Fabrícia B Apesar do roteiro pobre, a história consegue mostrar performances geniais para a tela, além de despertar a empatia do público. Assisti torcendo para que a verdade viesse a tona. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/24/25 Full Review bob c Not bad but done many times before and since. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/21/25 Full Review Audience Member It has great acting, the movie is hard to follow especially at the ending Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/12/24 Full Review Pantera O "I don't know what's happening" Un policia que inviestiga un caso, descubre una red de corrupción que involucra a sus hermanos. Elegante. Intensa. Confusa. Divaga mucho en diferentes conflictos que no tienen relevancia, con un ritmo bastante pesado y cargado de información. En cuanto a la fotografía es excelente, tiene un muy buen paisaje urbano que narra correctamente el ambiente, utlizando buna iluminación, un impactante diseño de producción, y un elegante lenguaje cinematográfico. Hace referencias internas sobre la misma película, dando a entender que son personajes ficticios narrando una historia real. El pan diario en una agencia de policías, enfrentando corrupción, fraudes, traiciones y la violencia, que termina por penetrar y afectar la vida familiar. Un intenso thriller, que te distrae y confunde, pudiendo lograr un mayor impacto o terminar por perder el intetes del espectador. Quede insatisfecho y confundido. ¿Confias en tu hermano? Ma familia es primero. Técnica: 7.7 Expresión: 5.8 Efecto: 6.4 Experiencia: 6.5 Calificación: 6.6/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/13/24 Full Review Terry H One of those that I watched again and am struck by how its way better than I remember it being. Outstanding cast. The kind where every actor and actress were perfect for the parts they portrayed. Testament to the character development and writing. Well worth the watch.
