Much better than I was expecting
This was funny, clever, unique, had great dialogue, sympathetic characters and overall very entertaining! I’m glad I ignored the negative reviews because I really enjoyed this. Affleck and Damon have good chemistry, they are believable as buddies. I thought the script was quite fun and delivered nicely. The secondary characters were subtly effective and well acted. Though it was highly improbable and far fetched in places, the twists made it fun. Even the vehicle chases were exciting. A certain degree of justice was provided especially for the guys walking in the woods in Canada without boots.

Better then expected
I understand while some people will give it a low 6, However I found it entertaining and cute with a great ending. Matt is good and Casey was good also. In this stage of technology, it’s fun to watch a movie that doesn’t require technology. I like the typical Boston history . Bad guy loses in the end. The movie seemed like a quick watch and the humor was subut on all I would give it 6.9. Definitely not either character’s best work.

But they didn’t have a lot to work with. Still worth seeing and I love the Boson back drop.

Good effects and moved quickly and not much humor but an ending that made me smile.

Not Bad At All!
The Instigators

Basically a couple of morons and a botched robbery. The cast had some heavyweights and seemingly to get their monies worth we had an over-wordy script.

In terms of comedy it struggled, but as the movie progressed it grew on you.

Overall I enjoyed it and the action sequences really were quite a thrill, my personal favourite was the mayor’s lawyer played by Toby Jones but Ron Perlman as the mayor was a magnificent grotesque of corruption.

The comic timing partially worked between the leads but for poor Matt Damon it didn’t come naturally and seemed quite forced at times, whereas Casey Affleck has made a career of “odd-ball”.

I’m giving this a firm 7 outta 10, well worth a watch but clearly a boys movie.
