    Incredible movie and performances...

    ...that kept me involved 100% of the time. This is the first movie since Inception that I would recommend so highly. Heist,drama,guts, romance born of getting to know eachother,rather than hopping into bed,gritty realism,even some understated humor,change and redemption-whether on not it's even possible and the slight hope that there can be a sequel all added up to a fulfilling movie experience....Each actor keeps has your empathy and you really care what happens to them. The story is not totally predictable and you will walk out satisfied,probably at least thinking about seeing again. Only bummer was too little of Cooper. He delivered every word and nuance to perfection in the small role he had. I will see again and purchase.

    The Town, worth seeing

    I enjoyed the film. Very good acting, terrific neighborhood accents, outstanding camera work. Critical: too much automatic weapon fire, and the only downside to climactic scene was too much repetition - spouse said a bit like Titanic - oh, no, she's getting back in the boat for more water filled corridor scenes!

    The best shootouts since Heat

    When I heard the same people who made "Heat" and "The Departed" made this movie I knew it would be good. Something about a good long shootout that is so entertaining and this movie delivers. Everything that you as a moviegoer wanted to happen happened and all loose ends were tied up - something a lot of movies don't do for us. Must GO!
