2.05 - R - 8/10
Surprisingly deep for a movie about bank robbers. Ben Affleck directs, and acts, wonderfully in this slightly cerebral action film.
Set in Charlestown, Boston, Mass, “the bank robbing capitol of the US”, the plot moves steadily along. The characters are charming in a way that makes them irresistible, but not someone who you would bring home to mommy.
Closing: Not the usual mindless action flick. Unique in its honesty, as well as its costume design, The Town is a story of bad men you’ll love. Despite the accolades, wait until its out on DVD.
