Most likely, the events that took place on April 15, 2013, the day of the Boston Marathon Bombing, are still relatively fresh in your head. This act of terror and its aftermath were broadcasted widely to the public at the time. However, the investigation behind the bombing is not too well known. Patriot’s Day (in theaters now) tells this story; the story of the bombing and the investigation that ensued in midst of the aftermath. Besides the fictional main character played by Boston native, Mark Wahlberg, the movie’s story is very accurate to the real events. If you are at all interested with these events or the investigation behind it, then I would suggest seeing the movie.
Patriot’s Day is currently showing at theaters all around Ann Arbor and student tickets are $8.50
