Can you really trust the police?

Movie: Gone Baby Gone
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 2 hours

Jan's Opinion: Casey Affleck and Ed Harris do a phenominal acting job in this film about a little girl who goes missing from her dysfunctional family. It gets confusing toward the middle but hang in there because it all makes sense in the end. The ending can be very controversial. The friend who went with me to see the movie thought the ending was a good one; I thought it should have ended another way, which you will understand when you see the movie. My only complaint with this movie is that the "F" word is used way too often. I don't mind hearing it used when it makes a point but they really over-used the word in this movie.

SHOOTER

Jan's Rating: 9
Time: 125 Minutes

Jan's Opinion:

If you love movies about the FBI and CIA, you'll love this one. Mark Wahlberg plays an ex-Marine scout sniper who is asked to return to service to stop an assassination attempt on the President. However, he is doublecrossed by Danny Glover and accused of trying to kill the President. You can see where this story is going so I'll let you watch it to find out how it ends.
