The Town (2010)


Another tender hearted bad boy movie about a bank robber who meets a girl and pines for the straight life. This is a better than average gangster style movie about a crew of bank robbers. Fairly well written and well played (unless you're Boston PD or the FBI). There are some slight continuity issues (Affleck's whisker growth in concuring scenes), but nothing you can't get past. While you don't really get anything new with this one you do get a rather neat tidy package of action and drama that will keep your eyes on the screen. I don't see it winning any awards, but it is entertaining and keeps a fairly rapid tempo. If you enjoy this genre, this will show up as a well prepared and hearty bowl of beantown soup.
