The Town

GENRE : Crime | Drama | Thriller

PLOT : Bank Robbery is like a trade in Charlestown. A long time thief  falls for a bank manager connected to one of his heists and wants to start his life afresh.

REVIEW : The plot however is not brand new to the movie world but Ben Affleck has presented it with great efficiency. The story is about himself playing Doug MacRay and his criminal life with his three partners and how it gets a turnover after he meets Claire. The start of the movie is pretty good and raises our hopes for whats going to be next. I watched the extended cut and may be that's why it felt boring somewhat and long in the latter first half. But soon after that it picked up too good. Jeremy Renner playing James Coughlin has delivered an amazing performance and the rest of the cast is pretty good as well. The screenplay is very good and on the whole its a great robbery movie. The movie surprisingly connects emotionally as well. The character development is superb. Ben Affleck clearly has done a terrific job here. The action sequences and the heists all look real and are shot with much perfection. Watch out for the climax as it may not end how you had thought. Overall its a must watch for crime lovers especially.
