Review of Patriots Day (2016) by Eric R — 14 Jan 2017

Wow, what a great movie! The extent of my knowledge regarding this incident was the actual bombing and the final capture in the boat, but there was a lot more that perhaps went unnoticed. There was quite a bit of setup with characters and events, but this made it feel like you were experiencing the confusion along with the investigators. Emotional resonating, I dare you not to tear up when watching this.

My biggest takeaway is that LAW ENFORCEMENT is awesome, and they need to be thanked and appreciated much more. And let's be real: abusive law enforcement individuals should be dealt with, but attacks on law enforcement MUST STOP. And we need an administration that supports them, emboldens them, and isn't afraid to condemn attacks on them. Let's address the REAL issues in the inner cities that cause citizens to kill each other, and let's stop using politics and racial provocation to divide us!
