Review: The Town

Sadly a bit of a let-down from it's awesome trailer, The Town reverts too much to crime story cliché with its tale of bank robber meets girl but gets drawn back for one last job.

The heist scenes themselves are where the film excels, Affleck showing his skills as a director shooting them with a kinetic energy that's up there with Mann and Greengrass, but the talky bits in between just descend into a load of Bawston mumbling with Jeremy Renner popping doing the whole doesn't care if he lives or dies, adrenaline junkie with a gun thing from the Hurt Locker and being the best thing in it.
