| | "Best of 2010" | Ally McNally 03/27/2011 | | I normally don;t go out of my way to see a Ben Affeck movie, but Affeck proves to be a master story teller ranking right up there with Scorcese, and Jeremy Renner nearly steals the show as James Coughlin. The Town is one of the best movies of 2010. |
