Its become a suprise sleeper hit. I have faith in the American movie going public again.

Dude, it's not a surprise, nor was it a "sleeper".

It was released late in the year because they want it fresh in the voter's mind for Oscar season.

Perhaps, but you have to admit its a harder sell than a Transformers 3, Die Hard 5 or Paranormal activity 15. Different target audience...but still.

I didn't cost in excess of $100 million to make. And it was released during Awards Season because it's not a summer blockbuster type of movie.

By most accounts, Affleck is a very good director and a very shitty actor.

I hope he didn't ruin his own movie by putting himself in it.

I went into the movie expecting just this. However, after enjoying the movie thoroughly, I now think that maybe the only person in Hollywood that knows how to direct Ben Affleck is Ben Affleck. I had no respect for him at all as an actor until I saw this film. However, in this film, he did a fine job. Nothing that should single him out for acting award honors, but he didn't ruin it and that surprised the hell out of me.

Have you seen The Town? If not, I highly recommend it.

The entire cast is awesome and Affleck's direction is money.
