Great film
Mark Wahlberg is a strange actor. He's turned out some brilliant films (The Departed) and some awful ones (Transformers). Fortunately this not one of the latter.
I knew little about the aftermath and investigation into the Boston marathon bombing, so I found this to be very fascinating and interesting, but tense and harrowing at the same time. It's not a pleasant topic, but it was handled very well. My only issue would be that Mark Wahlberg's character wasn't real, but then I do understand why they've done this to have a central point in a tale of lots of multiple narratives.

Horrifyingly good
This is another great film from Mark Wahlberg and Peter Berg (also director of Patriots Day). It's tense and truly horrifying to see what these people went through. For myself although I know of the incident, I didn't know a lot of the detail or back story so it was good to see this covered. There are some great effects, and some great acting from a very well known cast.

Repeat offender
This is one of the films I put on as a background noise and is instantly quotable. A fun take on the macho tough guy cop movies that focuses on the less heroic but equally useful roles in the police force. Will Ferrell is always a force of extreme comedy and Mark Wahlberg tries to play it serious but complements the relationship with Will.

Obsession
Fear- is a good thriller, Mark Walhberg does a good job as the obsesser. He is a mix between Norman Bates, Patrick Batman, Jack Torrence and Max Cady. A psychopath that cant be stopped.
The plot: When 16-year-old Nicole Walker (Reese Witherspoon) meets 23-year-old David McCall (Mark Wahlberg) at a Seattle nightclub, she falls in love. David is exciting and charming, and despite the wide age gap, he wins over Nicole's family -- except for her workaholic father, Steven (William Petersen), who's suspicious of David from the start. His concerns are realized when David turns out to be a violent sociopath who sees Nicole as his possession, and her family home a fortress to be invaded.
Its a intense movie and it does a good job been a thriller

Harrowing account of the Boston Marathon bombing and aftermath. I really liked that the story was interwoven with actual cctv of the real bombers and their movements leading up to their capture.
I really rate Mark Wahlberg but I didn't find him or his character convincing in this film, he was everywhere, plain clothes, uniform, cctv expert...that bugged me a little but I guess it was easier to tell the story with this "generic" police officer. That's really my only gripe.

Not bad
I'm a fan of Mark Wahlberg so I may be a little biased but this movie was pretty good. A little predictable but the acting was decent with both old and newer faces. The action was decent. There was bit of comic relief but mostly the story held a serious tone. Overall this movie is clean enough for the kids to watch(maybe not REAL young ones). If you enjoy "dirty cop" movies you'll enjoy this one. Worth a watch!
