Even before the film starts, a little girl of 4 has gone missing from the seedier side of Boston, and a police search is already well under way. A young private investigator is called in, employed by the child's aunt, because he is thought to have connections on the street that the police cannot tap into. He and his female partner set about their task but, somewhat against stereotype in such stories, they are at all times willing to work with, call in or support the police. Eventually lead character Patrick Kenzie, the PI, becomes obsessed with finding little Amanda, perhaps a little more obsessed than the background story leads you to expect.
First of all it's a good story that is never what I would call gripping yet holds your ... Read More: >>More Details |

Given no publicity and not shown in cinemas in the UK due to events at the time of release Gone Baby Gone passed by under the carpet.
It is a hidden gem that really shouldn't be missed. If you are a member of the 'yuck, it's Ben Affleck' bandwagon please, don't be put off. If this is anything to go by and he is hanging up the acting, we should have some great stuff in the future - maybe another Good Will Hunting? Without giving too much away about halfway through there's a major left turn in the way the film is going and it's followed up with a series of them until the end. The only odd thing I found is Michelle Monaghan, I'm not sure that her charactor really needs to be here. Adds a bit of balance I suppose? Read More: >>More Details |

I went to see this film on the strength of a recommendation by Christopher Tookey in the Mail, who gave it a rare five stars. However, I was disappointed. The dialogue was extremely difficult to catch, and I found the plot wildly implausible. The mother of the kidnapped child may have been unfit to be a parent, but would the female detective really have allowed her dislike to become so personal and obvious? The acting talent of most of the stars seemed to be wasted on wordy, over long scenes of dialogue, while the convoluted plot lost me totally.

I wasn't overly impressed with how this film started. It had the cheesy cuts and acting-style one normally associates with American TV cop shows. Still, it wasted no time in placing the viewer in the centre of the action and I thought I would give it a chance. I'm glad I did because the film's intriguing plot - about a little girl who has gone missing - combined with pacy, exciting direction makes for a great ride. I was utterly gripped until the end.
The film really kicks up a gear when first, Morgan Freeman appears and then Ed Harris and John Ashton. These actors have so much movie experience that they know how to light up the screen with their presence. This was much needed, because although some of the smaller parts, such as Titus Welliver's loyal ... Read More: >>More Details |
