'Pride and Glory' web reviews

In Gavin O'Connor's crime drama "Pride and Glory," Edward Norton and Colin Farrell play two cops who tumble into a moral dilemma when their own family is pulled into a corruption investigation. Sounds a bit like "We Own the Night" to me. Anyway, let's see what the Web's critics say about the flick:

Cinema Blend's Katey Rich: "It does an excellent job pinpointing the racial tensions that the NYPD have a way of stirring up, and the action scenes provide their own appropriate thrill."

• Ron Henriques at LatinoReview: "Some nice dramatic work amongst the four leads but in the end it all becomes them just yelling at each other."

• Matt Goldberg at Collider: "The character arcs intersect awkwardly and their subplots feel like distractions rather than shading."

RopeOfSilicon's Brad Brevet: "I am beginning to think dirty cop dramas just won't work on their own."

So, is this on your list of flicks to see this weekend?
