Gray’s distinctive, operatic approach inflames this Cain and Abel tale about two brothers from a family of cops, rising officer Joseph (Wahlberg) and his hedonistic black-sheep brother Bobby (Phoenix), who runs a sleazy Brooklyn nightclub that caters to the Russian mob. When Bobby’s family cracks down on the club and Russian gangsters put out a hit on his brother, Bobby must choose sides in this tragic, gut-wrenching crime drama
Brooklyn Brewery will be on hand in the lobby from 6:30 to 9:30pm offering samples of BAMboozle Ale. Try these 100% bottle re-fermented ales and pepper the brewery rep with questions and compliments.
