Movie Review - "The Town"

I know it isn't far-fetched for Ben Affleck to star in a movie about Charlestown, MA but in this self-directed movie based on Chuck Hogan's book "Prince of Thieves," Ben stars as Doug MacRay, a bad guy wanting to break away from his current lifestyle.  I hadn't even heard about the movie but my husband, always on the lookout for a good flick, added it to the DVR just for me. (Thanks honey, love you babe!)

If you love intense movies and don't mind rooting for the "bad guy," it is a must-see!!!!  For Mad Men fans, Jon Hamm is in the cast as are Rebecca Hall, Jeremy Renner and Blake Lively, who I had to look closely to recognize.  (Great job, Blake!)


I won't spoil the film for you but if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.  Please post your comments if you get to see it.


This flick gets a high-five from Kimbo....BOOYAH!
