The Town (2010)

Directed by and starring in 'The Town' is Ben Affleck who's directorial debut was the superb 'Gone Baby Gone', and Affleck betters that with this release, yes it's that good.

A tale of friendship, deceit and bank robberies.The action is high octane, brilliantly shot in the bustling streets of Boston, the drama and acting of the highest caliber, Affleck is excellent. ably supported by a fine cast including Rebecca Hall as Afflecks love interest Claire and Jeremy Renner as his best friend, the slightly psychotic James.With a 2 hour plus running time this film never drags it's heels, top class 'adult entertainment' similar in class to 2006 'The Departed'

One of the must see movies of 2010.
