Moved to mainspace by Captain Assassin! (talk). Self-nominated at 17:24, 31 March 2016 (UTC).

Article is new enough and long enough. Inline citations are used, but I cannot verify Erica McDermott's mention, the statement that "Wahlberg had not yet signed on for the film to star" and the carjacking parts. Some information in the infobox seems like it could use a source as well (where does the music statement come from?). No copyvio or plagiarism visible. The hook is interesting and not too long and correctly formatted but I can't find it in the article - nothing there talks about "recreating". QPQ needed, I see you are already aware.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:01, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Sorry for delay due to some technical issues with my PC. I'll be responding soon. --Captain Assassin! ^{«T ♦ C ♦ G»} 16:12, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

QPQ's done, and the crew are currently recreating the incident's attacks in Boston as it is filming. --Captain Assassin! ^{«T ♦ C ♦ G»} 08:34, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

QPQ is done, article has changed quite a bit so requesting re-review.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:14, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

ALT1 ... that the upcoming film Patriots Day is based on the terrorist attack on Boston Marathon on 2013's Patriots' Day?

Rewording the hook slightly by removing the word "recreate" and proposing ALT1, I am approving this nomination, based on Jo-Jo Eumerus' assessment and mine. There are ample cites of the hook facts. Good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:41, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
