Gone Baby Gone

Directed by Ben Affleck. The story takes place in Boston and tells of a little girl being kidnapped and a private investigator, played by Casey Affleck, is hired to find the girl, if she's still alive, and find out who took her and why. I don't want to give away too much, it's a complex story that unravels with few characters being who you think they are. It will definitely have you asking yourself what you would do in the situation of the main character and will have you thinking about it for the next few days. The Afflecks being from Boston do a wonderful job of showing you the real Boston. Great film.

***1/2

Rated R for very strong Boston language, aka lots of "F bombs" and some violence.
