The Town


I went for an afternoon movie today and saw Ben Affleck's "The Town". It is getting good reviews so I gave it a try. The story (as most of Ben's movies) was set in Boston or Charleston to be exact. What was fun about the film is that while in Boston two years ago, we ventured to see "Old Ironside" and the "Bunker Hill Monument" (In Charleston). Most of the scenes were in the neighborhood that we walked.

The movie is well acted with not only Affleck but Jeremy Renner(Hurt Locker) and the guy from Mad Men. The story was compelling but the F word was alternating from Noun, verb, etc., many times in the same sentence. It is so tiresome!

Therefore, I give this movie **stars (*** for intent).

2010 Movie#41

I do not recommend if this is the only movie you will see for a while.
