There's nothing monumental I can say that hasn't already been covered by so many of the great reviews here ... but I feel compelled to say something when I really like a movie! I enjoy a story that's able to draw me in to the point where I'm helpless to do anything but root for the bad guy - even though I don't condone their actions - because I've been compelled to see things from their perspective and sympathize with the circumstances that brought them to that point.I was impressed with the balance of elements that make a film appealing to a broad audience (drama, action, romance, suspense), and look forward to seeing Ben Affleck's future work as a director.
