Gone Baby Gone

New to DVD!

Ben Afleck's directoral debut is like no other film you will find, very original!

A little girl is gone missing, our hero must search all of his untoward contacts in order to find her... when he does find the girl it is not in the way that he had expected...

This movie is relentless, it is a drama in the legend of "Good Will Hunting" yet this movie refuse to be a clone and will never resort to being a general "feel-good" movie!

I basically just got this movie because it was exclusive to Blockbuster, and I'm not usually a fan of the Drama genre, as I tend to think of them as an excuse for poor plotline... But this movie is relentless, excellent original storyline!

Crime, Guilt, Family, Love, all to be found in this movie, a wonderful mix of emotions!

Starring Cassey Afleck, Michelle Monaghan, Meg Ryan, Ed Harris, and Morgan Freeman, A great cast, Ed Harris is particularly good in this movie!

Movie Rating 9/10

The Women

I was dragged out to see this by friends, I'm not one to watch Chick Flicks as a rule... But... I really enjoyed this one, just plain old classic stuff done really well with a good cast!

I must say, one of the things I disliked about The Dark Knight was the lack of a female presence, which was certainly not felt in this movie!

The Story is a remake of a 1939 m0vie, and is basically as the title describes, about women! One Woman's husband is having an affair with another woman, and most of the movie revolves around how to deal with this problem as her friends are all there to give her guidance!

As concerning the emotional side, it seemed to touch all the right chords just at the perfect time.

Really well done movie on a whole, but not quite a classic.

There's enough content there for the thinker, and great laughs, and in parts promotes a wonderful feel-good atmosphere, just the perfect movie if you want one to relax to!

Movie rating: 8.75/10
