    Product Description
    Critics are calling Ben Affleck's directorial debut "mesmerizing" (Peter Travers ROLLING STONE). When two young private detectives (Casey Affleck (GOOD WILL HUNTING) and Michelle Monaghan MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III) are hired to take a closer look into the mysterious disappearance of a little girl they soon unravel a multitude of twists and turns where nothing is what it seems. Ultimately they must risk everything -- their relationship their sanity and even their lives -- in the search to find her. Casey Affleck and Morgan Freeman are electrifying and Amy Ryan (CAPOTE) delivers "a vibrant knockout performance" (Kenneth Turan LOS ANGELES TIMES) in this edge-of-your-seat crime drama. GONE BABY GONE "will have you talking long after it's over" (Christy Lemire THE ASSOCIATED PRESS).System Requirements:Running Time: 114 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA/PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA Rating: R UPC: 786936727487 Manufacturer No: 5373803

    For his initial offering as director, Ben Affleck returns to the site of his first Oscar: South Boston. (He and Matt Damon shared the award for Good Will Hunting.) Hot on the heels of his moving turn in Hollywoodland, Affleck's Dennis Lehane adaptation marks one of the more seamless actor-to-filmmaker transitions in recent years. Ostensibly, a procedural about the search for a missing child, class and corruption emerge as his primary concerns. First off, there's low-rent private eye Patrick Kenzie (Casey Affleck, equally adept in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford). Then there's the girl's drug mule mother, Helene (Amy Ryan, Before the Devil Knows You're Dead). She and Patrick grew up in Dorchester, but he took a different path, setting up an agency with his girlfriend, Angie (Michelle Monaghan). Helene's aunt, Bea (Amy Madigan), hires the duo to augment the investigation, and they team up with Captain Doyle (Morgan Freeman) and Detective Bressant (Madigan's husband, Ed Harris). The authorities don't appreciate the interference, but Patrick knows how to get the local populace talking, and he soon finds there's more to the story than anyone could possibly imagine. Hard-hitting, but never soft-headed, the evocative end result proves Affleck has a flair for this directing thing and that his little brother can carry a major motion picture with aplomb. Gone Baby Gone belongs on the list of great Boston crime dramas, along with The Departed and Mystic River, Clint Eastwood's take on Lehane. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

    5 out of 5 stars Top Mystery   July 1, 2009
    Ana C. Thompson
    Really enjoyed the suspense and the use of non professional actors from the neighborhood. The ending is a surprize and has me wondering if the private detective made the right choice.


    5 out of 5 stars When is the right thing the wrong thing?   June 19, 2009
    Kona (Emerald City)
    The story opens in a run-down section of Boston, where a 4-year old girl has been kidnapped. The police captain (Morgan Freeman) isn't having any luck with the investigation, so the child's aunt hires two private detectives (Casey Affleck and Michelle Monaghan) to help. Their work takes them into a cruel world where life is very cheap.

    This movie really surprised me. First off, it was a tense and scary detective story, but then it became a story about Right and Wrong, leaving the audience to judge the actions and the characters. While it's full of violence, depravity, and bad language, it is a memorable story that deserves to be discussed. The actors are uniformly superb, especially Morgan Freeman in a very sympathetic role. Casey Affleck is excellent as the detective with street cred despite his baby face, and Ed Harris does his usual great job playing a police officer. Boston native Ben Affleck directed the movie on location, giving a sleazy, but apparently accurate look at life in the area.

    The moral dilemma posed at the end is not easily answered. I know I was left shaken and sobbing, so sorry for the situation and wondering what I would do. Highly recommended.



    4 out of 5 stars Yep, it's a goodie!   June 10, 2009
    Zeek (Lancaster, PA USA)
    The film starts out narrated by young, poor-man's private eye Patrick Kenzie (Played by Ben Affleck's kid brother Casey), overlaying street shots of South Boston- the setting that made Ben and Matt famous!

    A neighborhood child is missing and, as Patrick tells us, finding missing things is what he does best. The child's Aunt, played by Amy Madigan- a much older looking Mrs. Field of Dreams- decides the police need a little help and come to Patrick and his girlfriend/partner Angie for assistance.

    We soon find that Bea (Madigan)and her husband Lionel (the child's blood relative) are the people who seem to care the most about her. Certainly the girl's drug mule Mom appears less than concerned, despite her perfunctory protests otherwise.

    With assistance from two hard-nosed cops (played by Ed Harris and a character actor we've all seen before but with a never remembered name) and the Captain (Morgan Freeman), they find the girl soon enough.

    Still, it's the supposed denouement that makes this film. You see, after they found the missing girl, I found myself scratching my head.

    "Well, this is a short movie ... and it really wasn't that good."

    Especially considering the fact Ben Affleck is getting critical acclaim for his direction of this film, (and it was good direction), and that Casey is received equal acclaim for his portrayal.

    But then the movie turned. Yep, it's a goodie, and I'm not telling you more to keep it spoiler free for you!

    I liked everyone in this film except maybe the girlfriend. A heroic character, but somehow, she manages to come across flat and hard to read- when it was obvious she was supposed to be the one to keep Patrick balanced.

    Still it ended up being a movie I would recommend to anyone out there as a must see.



    5 out of 5 stars Top movie of the year for me!   June 9, 2009
    Alan Starr (Lawrence, MA)
    Think of this as the sequel to 'Mystic River' and 'The Departed'. Not quite as classic as those 5-star movies, but still incredible in its own right. Really strong cast (except Morgan Freeman, who surprisingly seemed to phone it in a bit). Casey Affleck does a really good job as the lead; Michelle Monaghan is give little to do but does it well. Most notably, Amy Ryan is amazing as the mother of the disappeared girl - several reviews say it's Oscar-worthy, and I completely agree. This was my #2 movie of the year, behind only 'Before the Devil Knows Your Dead'. And as I've re-watched both since, I might even swap them and make this #1! Ben Affleck should stick to directing instead of acting!


    3 out of 5 stars Lackluster Performances.   June 9, 2009
    Tekrad (Ft.Lauderdale,Fl)
    The plot of this movie is unique and entertaining. The BD PQ and compressed SQ were excellent quality. Casting was poor...Casey Affleck and Michelle Monaghan were not believable cast in those roles. Morgan Freeman lent a little star power to this movie, but it was not enough to save it from a mediocre overall performance. The Boston "accents" were a little phony and excessive at times.
