Review of Patriots Day (2016) by Brian S — 10 Dec 2018

The fact that this film is based on very recent, terrorizing events makes the film all the more intense. The screenplay is well written, the flick delivers a lot of suspense and Mark Wahlberg gives a very strong lead performance, with the help of the golden cast of Kevin Bacon, John Goodman and J.

K Simmons. The partial use of found footage, and real footage makes the flick even more authentic. This is a very entertaining, captivating and gripping flick, which gives you a powerful feeling of unity and power at the end.

Overall, director Peter Berg has done a great job in recreating some disgusting real-life events. Great film and recommended!!
