William F @RT01020847 1d My all time favourite film… This film encompasses the bank heist genre with the romance genre in a gritty, realistic, adrenaline filled, heartwarming, thrilling way that no other film I’ve watched has come close to. I can’t give Ben Affleck enough praise for howhe produced such a timeless masterpiece. The storyline itself is legendary. How ‘Gem’ (my favourite character) would do anything for his brother Doug without hesitation, he immediately looked for and struck down the manwho was looking to kill Dougwhen they were younger (knowing he would do many years in prison for it). He puts Doug before his own safety or freedom andthat is the kind of brotherly love I’ve never seenfrom another character in any other film I’ve seen. There’s so much more I want to say about this filmbut there’s a 1000 character limit. I’ll endthis review with the beautiful ending moment where Claire ultimately saves Doug by usingthe codeword of how if he came to her apartment it would be one of her "Sunny days". See more D. Hunter P @RT01359631 4d This is a good movie that is well done, but it is also a pretty stereotypical hollywood style story. I think there are lots of fan fictions that could run from this premise and have a lot of fun with it.

Intelligently written and well crafted characters - a story of trauma and moving on from your past, answering one key question: are people able to truly change? Fantastic Film.

Raw, gritty characters, compelling story. Good acting. Enjoyed it.

YET, a punchier screenplay packed with more twists and sharper dialogues could've transformed this good film into a legendary classic. See more Romas M @Romas Feb 2 Greetings from Lithuania. "The Town" (2010) is a good crime thriller. It was directed by Ben Affleck and it was his second feature, leading to the Oscar winning "Argo" in 2012. "The Town" is a good heist film witch also has interesting characters portrayed by great actors. The film is set in Boston and the location itself adds to the film a lot. There are few great action set pieces with chases and those looked very good. Clearly a lot of effort was put into the look of this film as it is very realistic and authentic looking. Overall, great cast lead by a great director at peak of his game made "The Town" into a very good film. See more Read all reviews
