Movies reviews

"We own the night" with Eva Mendez and Joachim Phoenix. Entertaining, good acting, nice cast, full of surprises, mostly predictable american cops movie,about a guy whose whole family is in the police and he manages a night club where some drug dealing will put him on a test.
"Beyond a reasonnable doubt" with Michael Douglas. Now this is a must see movie. Great story, totally unpredictable throught the end, breathtaking, although the movie starts a little bit slow though. A journalist wants to prove that district attorney Douglas is corrupted and falsifies the evidence. He makes himself a murder suspect to prove it.
"Angel heart " with Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro. A psychological thriller set in 1955 about a detective searching for WWII veteran that disappeared 12 years ago. Captivating, although I found it a little bit disappointing, although it had good ratings on imdb and rotten tomatoes. Violence and some gore, so beware. But surely not boring, you'll fix the screen till the very end and beyond if you could, felt like it needed something more. If it were a french movie, we would have settled with it cause they almost always leave you with a question mark.
