The last thing you want to uncover... is the truth.


Pride and Glory
Yet another tale of cop corruption and family feuds, which, according to the critics, has been done too many times before. The plot revolves around three cops — two brothers and their brother-in-law — and their retired ex-police-chief dad. Dad asks one brother to investigate a drug bust gone wrong which left four cops dead. Problems arise when all the clues point to his brother and brother-in-law, putting the family into conflict.

Ivan Sadler quote iconEven if you aren't a fan of this genre, I would highly recommend it.

Chicago Sunday Times
Roger Ebert quote iconPride and Glory is the kind of film where you feel like you know the words and ought to be singing along. It follows the well-worn pathways of countless police dramas before it.

eye Weekly
Jason Anderson quote iconA self-important but painfully lugubrious drama that swaggers around like it’s the first movie to ever take on the subject of police corruption, Pride and Glory could be the worst movie Sidney Lumet never made.

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconThe final 15 minutes are so awful that it's difficult to believe that the bulk of the film is actually decent. Some movies can survive a bad climax well enough to receive a recommendation. Pride and Glory is not among their number.

ScreenIt
C. Fuchs quote iconWhile Norton and Farrell give Pride and Glory some spark and gravitas with their solid performances, the recycled material is like a Frankenstein bolt through the neck -- it stymies circulation and any attempts at bold twists in any direction, leaving it and the viewer stiff.

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