On April 15, 2013, the world was rocked when two bombs exploded at the climax of the Boston Marathon in the US. No only was the attack hedious and deplorable, but the ensuing manhunt would grip the world’s attention. With the incident still fresh in the memory, this week sees the release of Patriots Day, a film retelling the events on that fateful day.
The film stars proud bostonian Mark Wahlberg as police Sgt. Tommy Saunders during the aftermath of the attack. Joined by Hollywood big-wigs Kevin Bacon (FBI Special Agent Richard DesLauriers) and John Goodman (Commissioner Ed Davis) the film documents the roles of the first responders and other investigators in a race against the clock to hunt down the suspects and bring them to justice.
