What our customer's say!

"Gone Baby Gone", The movie sucks. How could a person living in this day and age not see the future for this little girl. He should have had some balls, and left her with the Captain and his wife.

"buy the book", Movie is very good.
But the book is much, much better.
Casey Affleck and Michelle Monoghan ressemble Lehane's characters very well.
But Casey's voice!!!!!
It becomes irritant in the end hearing his high tone.
Did the guy had an accident in his youth????
Sorry, Ben and my sympathies, Casey.....

"Don't Read the Book First", Let's get one thing out of the way first: if profanity in movies bothers you, don't watch this one. According to the director's commentary, there are over 200 swear words in the movie, to the point where it's almost a distraction early on. I'm not sure what the point of that was, since the book doesn't have nearly that many, and books don't have to go before rating boards. This is definitely not one for the whole family to watch.

Which brings me to my main problem with the movie: I've read the book. It's the fourth book in a series by Dennis Lehane, the author of Mystic River. The five books follow private detectives Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro, and they're some of my favorite suspense/mystery novels. Not many authors can tell stories like these while simultaneously exploring their characters to the depth that Lehane does. One who does a similar job is Stephen R. Donaldson, but that's another review.

I know it's not fair to blame a movie for not having everything the book has, or for being less complex, so I'm trying not to do that. I know if you tried to faithfully reproduce these books on film, you'd need several hours (which is why I think most novels should be TV miniseries, not feature films). But some things about the characters still bothered me.

Casey Affleck, who plays Patrick, is just too young and pretty. In the books, Patrick is regularly beaten up or shot. He's 35-40 years old, and feeling the aches and pains of a life with too many hard knocks. (Lehane even said he took a break from writing about Patrick and Angie when he looked back at the books and saw how much of a beating he'd been giving them, and decided they deserved a break.) Affleck does a good acting job, but it's a different character; I don't think he ever even gets a split lip.

Angela is even worse. In the books, although we see the story through Patrick's eyes, he and Angela are very much equal partners, and she's saved his bacon as often as the reverse. Here, although Michelle Monaghan looks pretty much exactly like Angie looked in my head, she's practically a mouse except for a couple scenes. She mostly just tails along with Patrick, and when they have their big disagreement at the end, it comes out of nowhere. (Starting with the fourth book really hurts here, because there's no history to explain where they're coming from.) Looking at the reviews, some people didn't even know if she was Patrick's wife, assistant, or what. That character was a major disappointment in the way it was written.

Almost as disappointing is Bubba. Lehane describes him as "six feet four inches, 235 pounds of raw adrenaline and disassociated anger. And he'd shoot anyone who blinked at [Patrick] the wrong way." Movie Bubba is a fat kid who shows some menace, but nowhere near the barely controlled mayhem of the real Bubba. He's a fairly standard Hollywood drug dealer, and we never get any indication of the way he feels about Patrick and Angie. No time for that, I suppose.

So if you want a great story, with deeply drawn characters who go through the wringer, get the books, starting with A Drink Before the War. Having said that, the movie is pretty good in its own right. The crime plot is scaled way back, and isn't any easier to understand for being simpler, but it's still suspenseful and entertaining. The way it was shot in Boston with a lot of locals as extras gives it a "real" feel that serves the story well. I'm not usually a person who notices direction unless it's bad, but I think Ben Affleck did a good job here.

I like Casey's voice-overs; his voice matches the character better than his looks. Amy Ryan is good as the mother of the kidnapped girl, although I was surprised to see she was nominated for an Oscar for mostly acting stoned and crying a lot. Her character is more likable here than in the book, but she's still easy to loathe, which is critical.

The real star might be Ed Harris, who plays his character to the hilt. He's electrifying every time he's on screen. It's too bad that some of the plot simplification required scaling back his character, so his motivation ends up being much simpler than it was originally, but it's still a great performance. Come to think of it, I don't know if I've ever seen a bad performance from him.

I'm giving it three stars, for people who can take the profanity. It might deserve more than that, but it's hard for me to see past how much better it could have been, if they'd been more faithful in reproducing the characters, especially Angie and Bubba. Maybe someday someone will do the series right, starting at the beginning and using TV to accommodate the full stories. Until then, this is a serviceable take on it.

"Gone Baby Gone review by Brandon", Great, great movie about a missing young child. This movie has a lot of twist and turns. The story is great and makes the viewer think a lot.

"Strong Directing Debut From Ben Affleck", Ben Affleck continues his return to respectability with his directorial debut Gone Baby Gone. Exploring an area he knows quite well, South Boston, Mr. Affleck elicits strong performances from a first rate cast including his brother Casey in the lead role, Morgan Freeman, Michelle Monaghan, Ed Harris, Amy Ryan, Amy Madigan & Titus Welliver. The movie revolves around a missing child search that turns into a kidnapping plot involving police corruption. There is a dark edge to the film with a mix of salty and earthy South Boston characters that add even more gruffness. Although this film didn't receive the Academy Award recognition of another Dennis Lehane adaptation, Mystic River, I found Gone Baby Gone less pretentious and overacted and ultimately more enjoyable.

"Afleck at home in South Boston", Casey Affleck's performance was huge. Felt like I was right there with him during those life/death decisions as an anti hero. Of particular note was the first bar scene where Casey's character is interviewing an old class mate about the case and the local hooligan bar patrons decide to start a throw down. The suspense is immense, especially if like me you view it as the old school yard bully against the little guy with spunk. I heard myself say "YES" as my anti-hero pulls out a Glock...sweet, take that you crap head. My adrenalin was flowing after that exchange, which came as a surprise to me. I don't usually get so involved in a film that my physical life sign stats peak. The story line has the typical twists and turns with no moral right or wrong answer throughout. Our anti-hero simply has to go with his gut and call it based on his experience growing up in the neighborhood. No matter what his decision there is always a cost that weighs heavily on his soul. As Gitano said, Ben Affleck's direction was excellent. After watching the special features I find out why he did so well. Ben and Casey grew up in this area of Boston and were quite comfortable acting and directing with the real people of the area. Ben made sure he used the real folks in the movie. The street dwellers, the cops, even the bar room hooligans were all locals. They delivered their lines and acted as naturally as they would every day. This gave the film a realistic quality that you seldom find.
This is one to purchase. Be warned however, the Southey language is not for the faint at heart.

"YUCK BABY YUCK", Who wants to watch a movie about drug addict trash mothers who have no business breeding? Crappy story, crappy ending.

"Auspicious Directorial Debut for Affleck", "Gone Baby Gone" heralds director Ben Affleck as an artistic prescence to be reckoned with. The film teems with a highly individualistic style informed by Affleck's upbringing in working class Boston. You can taste it in the art direction and the authentic dialogue espoused by the film's denizens. The film also contains one jawdropping performance by Amy Ryan as the crack-addicted mother of a missing child. That you can engender any sympathy for this apathetic character is a credit to Ryan as an actress. Oscar got it wrong on this one. I would be a little more enthused by the film if not for a slightly lackluster script, cowritten, ironically by Affleck. It's not that the plot is convoluted but a little too labyrinthian for my liking. Another thing that is blatantly obvious is the casting of Morgan Freeman in a role originally intended for a white actor. You can never quibble about employing an actor of the high calibre of Freeman but wouldn't it have made more sense to give his character a black wife? Nonetheless, an interesting film that's well worth your while.

"The right thing", A little girl disappears from her run down Boston neighborhood, where Patrick Kenzie grew up and, now in his thirties, has never left. He and girlfriend Angie Gennaro live and work together, and life is good. When this pair of private investigators are asked to find the missing child, they reluctantly agree. But things don't go as hoped. And when Patrick finally uncovers the truth, he faces a moral dilemma that may affect everything he cares about.

Gone Baby Gone is based upon a gripping story, but the film somehow lacks the tension that the book itself sustains. The performance of Casey Affleck is too low key, and Michelle Monaghan as Angie has too little to do. Ed Harris, Morgan Freeman, and Amy Ryan are more convincing. Settings, dialog, gritty atmosphere, and cinematography are all well done, and while GBG misses being great, its twists and a surprise ending make it well worth watching. (Heavy doses of profanity in parts.)

"I was surprised at how good this film was", The only thing I'd known about this film before I first watched it was that there was a Lisbeth Scott song I loved in the film ("In the Darkness"), and that was the soundtrack CD I'd downloaded the song from. And I remembered that Amy Ryan had been nominated for an Oscar for her part, and the clip they showed on Oscar night made the film look interesting. But I saw it a month ago on cable, and two nights ago I watched it again and it was even better than the first time.
Amy Ryan is wonderful in the part of a hardscrabble mother whose child has gone missing, and Amy Madigan, who (like Ryan) doesn't seem to have enough screen time, is a standout as the aunt who will not leave the search for the child in the hands of the police, but hires a somewhat seedy neighborhood guy (Casey Affleck) who knows people who would never go to the cops, to augment the investigation. Ben Affleck did a wonderful job of directing a great cast. Morgan Freeman also stars in this film and I'd pretty much watch him in anything, but this film is honest and surprisingly affecting.
