The Town

01 October 2010

Would you like to know something about me? No? Ok, I'll tell you anyway; I like movies and I like babes. I especially like movies that feature babes and last night I was lucky enough to see one such movie. Don't worry, I'm not going to talk about how beautiful Ben Affleck is, I won't even mention his magnificent six pack (it's really more of a ten pack) or his beautiful Boston accent... Instead I'll just say that for the first time in a long time, I actually enjoyed a movie.

Don't get me wrong, I love the cinema experience - the Slush Puppies, the Hot Nuts, the Student Ticket prices, but most of the time I leave the theatre thinking, “that wasn't bad, but it wasn't good”. I hate that feeling of disappointment. Last night I wasn't expecting much from The Town, I hadn't heard a lot about it but I thought I'd give it a go and I'm so glad I did! It's one of those movies that really makes you think – I was completely glued to the screen and as the movie went on I found myself caring about the characters. Plus, it's the definition of action packed – not one of the 124 minutes was dull! Here's the trailer, to get you in the mood :)



I could go on and on about this movie, but I won't – I don't want to ruin your cinematic experience! It's a brilliant movie and I think that everyone should go see it, right now. If you need someone to go with, give me a ring, my student loan is in and I'd gladly re-watch this bad boy!
