The Charlestown neighborhood of Boston is renowned for churning out a high number of armed robbers, generation after generation. These robbers never leave their Charlestown life on their own volition, the neighborhood where there is an unwritten code to protect that lifestyle. Such robbers include friends Doug MacRay, James Coughlin, Albert 'Gloansy' Magloan and Desmond Elden. Doug and James in particular treat each other like family, as the Coughlins have realistically been as such to Doug since Doug's mother ran off and Doug's father, Stephen MacRay, was sent to prison. James' single mother sister, the drugged out Krista Coughlin, and Doug have a casual sexual relationship. The foursome carry out a mostly successful bank robbery, but due to circumstances take the bank manager, Claire Keesey, hostage for a short period before releasing her physically unharmed. They find out that Claire lives in Charlestown, so they want to ensure that she did not see anything that could incriminate them if they were to ever run into her. As such, Doug begins a personal relationship with her to find out what she knows and what she's told the police and the FBI, who have taken charge of the investigation. He learns that she has kept some information from the authorities for her own protection but information that could identify James in particular. But Doug slowly falls for her, as she does for him. Ultimately, Doug dreams about leaving his Charlestown life to be with Claire anywhere but there. But Doug has to try and keep his true identity from her, and keep the fact that he is seeing her from his colleagues. But leaving is not as easy as he would like as he and the gang are tasked with a big job by a local gangster named Fergie whether Doug likes it or not. And Adam Frawley, the FBI's lead investigator, comes into evidence that links the foursome to the bank robbery and a subsequent armored car heist, so is on their tail for evidence that will send them away dead or alive. 为什么在中国抢不了银行。用悲悯之心淡化现实粗砺（严重极端剧透，慎入）。Sunny Days。佳人无需才子，小本你执着了，但是我欣赏。Welcome To Boston。披着犯罪片外衣演绎爱情片。小本的小港片。。情节剧。花瓶男的翻身之作。逃离罪恶之城。 美国东部，位于波士顿近郊的查尔斯城，俨然一个被法制遗忘的失乐园。城中爱尔兰裔的工薪阶层占有很大比例，区域贫困的生活条件和令人无法喘息的压力让人们铤而走险，银行抢劫案时有发生，一切都变得癫狂无望。某个早晨，美丽的银行经理人克莱尔·吉塞（丽贝卡·豪尔 Rebecca Hall 饰）遭遇一伙头戴骷髅面具的劫匪，而她更被劫持为人质。奇怪的是，克莱尔最终意外生还，似乎这个早晨的变故从未发生过一样。一天，她邂逅了高大英俊的男子道格·麦克雷（本·阿弗莱克 Ben Affleck 饰），奇妙的缘分就此展开，两人的命运也由此改变…… 本片根据库克·霍根（Chuck Hogan）的原著改编。
