Marley, if I liked the movie just because it was a Boston movie, I'd have recommended Fever Pitch too.... In spite of being a Red Sox fan and a Drew Barrymore fan, Fever Pitch was a complete letdown for me.

Did you like The Departed? or The Mystic River? Gone Baby Gone has elements of both - and is better than those two. Do watch the movie and let me know how you feel.

P.S. being a Boston resident, I am more "attached" to the movie but I would have loved this story even though it was not Boston based.
