Rent/buy/borrow/download “The Town.” If you haven’t already, I mean.
Not gonna lie, probably the best movie I’ve seen in the last year, at least. It’s like Ocean’s 11, except badass. And in Boston, so the accents are wicked ah-some. Oh and Ben Affleck looks pretty good in it.
When I told people I’d seen it they thought it was scary, on account of several previews showed the bank robbers in creepy nun masks, a part that actually accounts for about 5 or 10 minutes of the actual movie.
Besides kind of making me want to rob a bank – JUST KIDDING – the movie really just made me want to move to Boston. Among the reasons – I’m a Red Sox fan and I want that accent.
When we saw the movie in the theater, Hope and I started practicing – like in the beginning when the camera pans over a bunch of boats out in the water. And I look at Hope and say “That’s the hah-ba.”
My horrible attempt at an accent aside, it’s a pretty great movie. And if you don’t like it…well, don’t get me stah-ted.
I never saw this because I thought it was going to be scary! When the nun masks came across the screen on the commercials, I would change the channel! I might have to redbox it now though.
