Gone Baby Gone —
First of all I am from the Boston area and most of the actors who are not from Boston did an excellent job with the accent. I find it annoying when actors do the Boston accent and it's waaaaay off. There were many times in the movie where I couldn't even guess what was going to happen next. I found myself empathizing with the characters at one point and then totally changing my mind later on. Personally I didn't like the ending but I'm sure if you polled everyone who saw the movie you would get many mixed reviews. I see that some people were bothered by the language but to me it was realistic. I think everyone should see this film to form their own opinion but also to enjoy the acting and directing. I'll be surprised if it is not nominated for an Oscar.
