    Storyline

    Edit
    On April 15, 2013 Boston, Massachusetts, Police Sgt, Tommy Saunders is pulling security duty on the annual Boston Marathon when the Tsarnaev brothers strike with their homemade bombs in an act of terrorism. In the resulting chaos as the wounded are cared for, Saunders and his comrades join forces with the FBI to get to the bottom of this attack. As the investigation continues, the Tsarnaev brothers realize that the authorities are close to identifying them and attempt to flee the city to continue their fanatical mayhem. To stop them, a police manhunt is performed that would have bloody confrontations and a massive dragnet shutting down the City of Boston to make sure there is no escape from the law. —Kenneth Chisholm (kchishol@rogers.com)

    • Trivia
      The Military Police in the movie are real-life MPs from the Massachusetts National Guard. Some of them had responded in the week following the attack.

    • Quotes

      Dun Meng: Go catch those motherfuckers!

    • Alternate versions
      In the German version, the supplement at the end of the movie (where interviews with real life people are shown) was removed because it was deemed too patriotic/pathetic for Non-American viewers.

    Surprisingly Moving
    I saw this movie at a preview showing and was very pleasantly surprised.

    The movie is great, the cast are uniformly excellent, and the plot moves along really nicely. I was mesmerized throughout, the pacing was excellent and, even though we all remember the outcome from the extensive news coverage, I was surprised at some of the things that happened before the end.

    It was surprisingly moving at a few points, sorry, no spoilers so I won't say any more.

    Great job to everyone who worked on this movie.
