All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!
This is one of those films that leaves you really thinking after the credits start rolling. The subject matter is a little hard to deal with. Think Law and Order SVU with a slant.
I thought just about everything about this film was great. The casting was amazing. Ed Harris wins me over as a somewhat corrupt cop. Morgan Freeman I feel is too under used, but good in the parts that he is in. But by far the star is Casey Affleck who is really really great.Consider me a fan. I can’t wait to see the other film I blind bought, “Assassination of Jessie James…”which I heard he is excellent in as well.
Again there is some tough subject matter here..but if you can get past it I think you might see a great film.
Think harder edge Mystic River type flick.
Last props to Ben Affleck -can’t wait to see your next flick -I was so worried I would get a series subject film directed like Kevin Smith -but alas I was pleasantly surprised.
Great review over at DVD Talk review of Gone Baby Gone ->HERE
Enjoy,
DH
I also finished “Double Cross” by James Patterson -which was really good and very fast pacing. If you are a fan of Patterson then I think you’ll enjoy this one with the “Mastermind” back to face off with Cross along with the DC Audience Killer or is it Killers. Alex Cross is top notch. I’m always thinking Morgan Freeman.
Give it a try I think you’ll enjoy -Good reading,
-DH
