Summary

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture Our 2010 retrospective continues with Ben Affleck's Boston crime drama "The Town". Starring a stellar cast including Ben Affleck, Rebecca Hall, Jeremy Renner, Jon Hamm, Blake Lively, Titus Welliver, Pete Postlethwaite & Chris Cooper, the film was the second directorial effort in Affleck's career. It was critically acclaimed upon release, earned Renner a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination, and was a box office hit grossing over $150 million worldwide. How does it hold up today? Join Dan Bayer, Brendan Hodges, Danilo Castro, and me as we discuss our thoughts on the writing, performances, heist scenes, the surprising lack of Oscar nominations, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.
