19 October 2007 | by the_Poppuns"concurs with how I felt about the film. Watching it 2/23/13, almost 6 years after it came out. But I am so impressed by Ben Affleck's directing. I really wanted to see Argo and haven't had a chance yet and seeing this makes me want to see Argo even more. I am happy for Affleck; as an actor he was always just "eh" to me (aside from his classic portrayal of high school asshole O'Bannon in Dazed and Confused). He has found his niche. I don't even need to ever see another film directed by him to know that. But it would be a shame if he didn't continue. I've never been to Boston, only know less than a handful of people from there, but this felt real and authentic. I loved it. Often times I find some of the hardest subject matter to handle (child abuse, murder, rape, injustices against innocents)makes for the most impressionable films. Also I wanted to say that the review written by the aforementioned was written very well.
