In This episode of The SPIRAKEN MOTION PICTURE REVIEW PODCAST, we return to an old tradition of the Spiraken Movie Review Podcast, The Theme Month and this one is a doozy. Xan and Gretta start the Month of Heists, hijacking and high octane car crashes with a review of a modern heist movie. So enjoy as our hosts review The Town, directed by and starring Ben Affleck. It also stars Rebecca Hall, Jon Hamm, Jeremy Renner, Blake Lively, Titus Welliver, Pete Postlethwaite, and Chris Cooper. ----more---- Besides our review, we also discuss what makes a heist movie, how awesome Jeremy Renner was in the movie and what seven elements are key to making them great. Please send us any comments concerns and ideas on how to make this podcast better. Let us know so we can do something about it.
