Two young private detectives (Casey Affleck and Michelle Monaghan) are hired by the girls Aunt to look into the case, and they soon find themselves risking their lives in the search to bring Amanda home safely.There's been a lot of buzz about Gone Baby Gone, Ben Affleck's directorial debut, due to the Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations for Amy Ryan, I became interested in seeing the movie after catching a trailer for it on another Disney Blu-ray release. Casey Affleck, Ed Harris, Morgan Freeman, and Michelle Monaghan were wonderful to watch, and they're joined by a number of recognizable supporting cast members.We often see one or two exclusive features for the Blu-ray release, but this disc has the same material as the DVD, with an obvious upgrade to the audio and video. Listen to writer/director Ben Affleck and writer Aaron Stockard as they provide commentary on the movie, and optional commentar... read more

  • Ed Harris Falls Back into Television | Today's News: Our Take | 5/27/2005

    Ed Harris doesn't like the M-word.

    "Someone called it a miniseries, and I wanted to throw up," says the star of HBO's Empire Falls. "It's not a miniseries — it's a damn movie!"
