'''We Own the Night''' is a 2007 American crime drama that is set in Brooklyn, New York City in the late 1980s. The story focuses on Bobby Green ([[Joaquin Phoenix]]) a night club owner (with business ties to the Russian Mob) and black sheep of a multi-generational family of NYPD officers. When his older detective brother Joe ([[Mark Wahlberg]]) and assistant police chief father Burt ([[Robert Duvall]]) are targeted and hit by the Russians, Bobby is forced to decide which side he'll stand with. The title comes from the motto of the NYPD's controversial Street Crimes Unit, which disbanded in 2002 after thirty-one years of service. | |||

We Own the Night is a 2007 American crime drama that is set in Brooklyn, New York City in the late 1980s. The story focuses on Bobby Green (Joaquin Phoenix) a night club owner (with business ties to the Russian Mob) and black sheep of a multi-generational family of NYPD officers. When his older detective brother Joe (Mark Wahlberg) and assistant police chief father Burt (Robert Duvall) are targeted and hit by the Russians, Bobby is forced to decide which side he'll stand with. The title comes from the motto of the NYPD's controversial Street Crimes Unit, which disbanded in 2002 after thirty-one years of service.

NYPD officers are not issued their handguns. They purchase their handguns and therefore they own their own handguns.
