Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Memorable, crazy movie

Excellent but underrated film

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Ok. It wasn't in tears, but I felt surprised about how sweet the movie ends up being.The movie is not complicated at all. Its pretty straight. A simple action/crime story (with an insane amount of suspension of disbelief needed).What makes it better than mediocre for me is the cinematography and the editing. A simple story like this one could've dragged without a proper editing helping to entertain in the more mundane parts.Don't expect complicated storytelling and you'll be satisfied

I am not going to go into great detail because this review would contain spoilers and I don't want it to. Excellent cast, imo, and it started out very well, exciting, unpredictable, good Accountflek acting. And it got really, really stupid, in my opinion. Kind of predictable, really (for me, anyway), another Hollywood production with too much noise, violence, and too many guns... I thought, at first, a more gentle and peaceful performance from Affleck. But ... Noooooooooo. I would not see it again.

I absolutely love this movie. It's not just a great movie overall, but it brings out a lot of emotions that I can relate to as a person with Aspergers. Ben Affleck did a great job at showing the world what life can be like for a person with this disorder. And much like Christian in this movie, I was able to use my disorder to my own advantage. It's what helped me succeed in my career today. And it's what makes me who I am. I consider myself very successful in my career and life. And I owe a lot of it to having Aspergers. Of course it has it's cons, as you saw in the movie. But it brings a whole new mindset and point of view to the world. For those of you with this disorder or ones like it, I suggest you try to figure out how to use your condition to succeed in your life. Like me, you may find that you're exceptionally good at something because of your condition. And if you enjoy it, do it your way and try your hardest. Use movies like this as inspiration. Just don't ever think you can't do something because you're not like everyone else. That was my hardest lesson. The day I accepted myself who I am and stopped trying to be "normal" was also the day my whole life changed for the best. And make sure your spouse respects you. In hard times, they are likely to be the best person to talk to when you're struggling with your condition. I've had relationships where the other person put me down or criticized me for being "weird". That's just unacceptable. You deserve better! Today I'm a happily married man with a thriving career, my own house, car and supportive group of friends and family. It took a LOT of hard work to become who I am today. It's worth it! Don't give up! And you may want to let your close friends and family about your condition. For me, it helps them understand why I may say or do things that sometimes come off as weird, rude, etc. I hope this helps someone! For those of you "normal" people, keep on supporting those with disorders. When you see them in a struggle, try to help. Highlight the good things about them. It may help more than you'll ever know!

Just saw it the second time and all I can say is that this movie off the charts. It has a lot of fighting with incredible skills, love and sheer chemistry between the leading character and Anna Kendrick, but also shows what true family means, the loyalty between Ben and his brother is overwhelming. All actors play extremely good and I tried to see one more time some other movies like Jack Reacher (2012) but it bored me to death. On the other hand, watching again this movie really made me see some details that I missed the first time and I got the same feelings I got initially. Highly recommended!
