The Town Audience Reviews

More Review
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Mohamed Abdalla This is a movie about a group of thieves in a town of bad history about thieves, and of course we see their interactions to the surrounding community, the police and the victims of their heists.But the story is not the core here as it's very simple related to other heist related movies, however the excellency of this movie stems from paying much attention to the details; the details in the accent of "Charlestown" citizens, the details in the costumes which made for us that unforgettable scene of the robbing nuns, the details in making such strong plot with the least weak points.The length of the movie is a little bit extended without any good reason, it starts well with a great action scene then the rhythm goes up and down till you reach the end which may not be liked by a lot.The performance of the actors is really great and you see them in new characters and they nailed it specially "Ben Affleck" & "Jeremy Renner". On the other hand, "Rebecca Hall" & "Blake Lively" could do better and "Jon Hamm" didn't fit that much in the role.Finally, it's a nice crime/drama movie that the director -who is "Ben Affleck"- paid much attention to everything except for the thrill which could be added in a bigger amount here,you will enjoy it till the end if you overcome some boring moments.
Pen Groves This movie is so painfully middle of the road it's frustrating. There is absolutely nothing unique or original about this movie. You certainly cannot call it bad by any stretch but my word, what a meandering, predictable, and hollow movie.
areatw For a film with such a dull and uninspiring title, 'The Town' is surprisingly bold and original. It effectively balances an interesting and engaging storyline with some great action sequences. Heist movies are always at risk of being generic and repetitive but this one ensures that never happens with an original, convincing plot and an interesting bunch of characters.The crime genre has become increasingly stale and action-obsessed in recent years, so 'The Town' deserves credit for focussing on story and character development as much as action and violence. Great action films with credible plots are hard to come by these days, but 'The Town' is one of them.
joneskevin-29683 This is a very entertaining bank robber movie, with pretty solid acting and action scenes. However, I dock it three stars because Rebecca Hall's character is so boring! Rebecca Hall is "miss perfect" and has zero sexual chemistry with Ben Affleck, which makes the romance scenes boring as hell to watch. Ah what a cheese fest! On the flip side, Blake Lively gives a terrific performance as a drug addicted Mother, and her smooching scene with Ben Affleck is top notch. 7/10
