Review of Patriots Day (2016) by Thomas T — 20 Jan 2017

Patriot's Day is the third collaboration between director Peter Berg and actor Mark Wahlberg after their previous works Lone Survivor and Deepwater Horizon both excellent films. Patriot's Day surpasses both though, covering the events of the tragedy at the Boston Marathon and the manhunt following. The movie is a rollercoaster of emotion, that shows how the city of Boston came together in a time of crisis.

Patriot's Day is a must watch and hopefully will make its budget back unlike the also excellent Deepwater Horizon. Hopefully Peter Berg and Mark Wahlberg will continue to collaborate and bring more powerful movies like Patriot's Day to the public.
