The Town

Considering the after 2PM movie is showing so late, let's watch the 1:30 PM movie. We will meet just inside the front door to the left. We will be seated as at group at 1:20 PM.

Thanks to Amy Axelrod for the idea.

Doug MacRay (Ben Affleck) is an unrepentant criminal, the de facto leader of a group of ruthless bank robbers who pride themselves in stealing what they want and getting out clean. With no real attachments, Doug never has to fear losing anyone close to him. But that all changed on the gang's latest job, when they briefly took a hostage--bank manager, Claire Keesey (Rebecca Hall). Though they let her go unharmed, Claire is nervously aware that the robbers know her name...and where she lives. But she lets her guard down when she meets an unassuming and rather charming man named Doug...not realizing that he is the same man who only days earlier had terrorized her. The instant attraction between them gradually turns into a passionate romance that threatens to take them both down a dangerous, and potentially deadly, path.

    My first Meetup. It was good to meet everyone. Unfortunately, I couldn't make dinner. The movie was good. Look forward to attending again.

    Movie was alright. Thought Ben Afleck played a very good part. Didn't have the opportunity this time to go to dinner with the group, but hope to make it next time.
