Movie propaganda
Everyone wants the truth... until they find it.
Dorchester, one of the toughest neighbourhoods in all of Boston, is no place for the weak or innocent. It's a territory defined by hard heads and even harder luck, its streets littered with broken families, hearts, dreams. When one of its own, a 4-year-old girl, goes missing, private investigators Patrick Kenzie (Casey Affleck) and Angela Gennaro (Michelle Monaghan) don't want the case. But after pleas from the child's aunt, they open an investigation that will ultimately risk everything - their relationship, their sanity, and even their lives - to find a little girl-lost.

Theatrical report
Gone baby gone is a delightfully nasty look at overworked and corrupt city cops, underworked and honourable urban detectives, vile and prevaricating junkie crims and the 4-year-old who gets caught between them. She doesn't stand a chance.
And neither do you: there's more grit in this film than the north end of a south-bound camel. It's hard and dark and evil and you'll mostly like it. There was a perfect point to end the movie about an hour in (with the kid unfound) but it just kept going and adding twist upon twist to the plot. This was interesting but it ended up resolving all the unanswered questions that usually come with a child's disappearance. I like a bit of mystery in my thrillers.
Casey Affleck is just a little too much like his brother.
The crime, mystery movie Gone baby gone is directed by Ben Affleck and stars Michelle Monaghan, Casey Affleck, Morgan Freeman.
