Good fiction often comes down to how well it tricks you into suspending your disbelief. Later, maybe, you go, "But...wait a second...that'd never....", but not during the story. "Gone, Baby, Gone" does it nicely. Yep, sitting here a couple of hours later, questions come up, but during the movie? I was willing to buy the story (o.k., with a couple of "buts", but...). Definitely worth seeing. Ben Affleck should probably forget his career in front of the camera, and go with directing. Casey Affleck can keep right on acting. Michelle Monaghan, who plays Casey's close personal associate, doesn't fare very well, but that's mostly the part's fault, not hers. On the other hand, Amy Ryan is great. Ed Harris and Morgan Freeman, well, what do you think?
