Too many others to remember
In the last 10 years there have been a ton of movies filmed in Boston and Eastern Massachusetts.
I would go with either Goodwill Hunting, The Town, The Fighter, The Departed, or Gone Baby Gone.
Boston movies seem to do a good job where the place/people from the place adds significant color to the film
Goodwill Hunting, The Departed, The Town all do this well (The Fighter I think did as well and never saw Gone baby Gone) but these movies always give a Boston vibe which to me makes the films more interesting

I loved Mystic River, as it presented a side of Boston that outsiders seldom get to see.
Sleepless in Seattle
The Ring
The Hand Than Rocks The Cradle
Harry And The Hendersons
Singles
Disclosure
Firewall
War Games
Double Jeopardy
The Fabulous Baker Boys
My Favorite is War Games though. I grew up watching that movie.
Notice how nobody from New York, California or Georgia -- the three biggest movie-producing states in the country -- bother to weigh-in. Seems rather pointless.

THat was rude to the rest of the nation and Georgia did chime in and you havent
Its debatable if Georgia is bigger in movie production than North Carolina where Iron Man 3 and Hunger Games the original filmed in.

Dude, it's not even close. Georgia long ago eclipsed NC.
"Georgia-based productions generated $3.1 billion for the state economy in fiscal 2012, up 29 percent from the year before, according to the Georgia Film, Music & Digital Entertainment Office. That puts the state well ahead of regional competitors such as Louisiana ($717 million for calendar 2012) and North Carolina ($278 million for calendar 2012), according to those film offices’ websites."
There are several major motion picture and television studios already operating in Georgia with several more ---- including one huge one Pinewood Studios -- under construction.
It is time Atlanta and Georgia started getting recognition for its meteoric rise in the entertainment business. It is truly a remarkable story. Thousands of jobs and billions of dollars are flowing into Georgia through film and TV production now. California is hurting.
PS -- The Humger Games sequel was filmed in Atlanta and rumors are going around that the Avatar sequel will be shot in Georgia as well.
