Ben and Corey review Ben Affleck’s new crime drama, “The Town.” The movie looks great, packs a punch with some thrilling daytime shootouts and features a top-notch cast playing at a high level. But, in the end, it’s still missing something.

The hosts also put on their best Bah-ston accents to settle on their favorite films set in Beantown, as well as talk the casting of Sacha Baron Cohen as Queen frontman Freddie Mercury and much more.

This week, we review George Clooney’s latest thriller, “The American.” But just how thrilling is it? Just 20 minutes into Ben’s screening, he heard loud (and telling) snoring a few rows down.

Somehow, the slowly paced film, set in Italy with a mostly foreign cast, about a tortured assassin managed to finish first in last week’s box office race. So maybe something’s working.

The guys also talk Robert Rodriguez’s latest “Machete” and offer up their Top 5 George Clooney Performances.

Aspect Radio hosts Ben Flanagan and Corey Craft are joined by Tuscaloosa native and Crimson Tide superfan Hunter Johnson to discuss “Nick Saban: Gamechanger,” a new documentary about the University of Alabama head coach, produced by Flashlight Media Group, LLC.

The “authorized documentary” is catnip for Bama fans who never tire of re-living that perfect 2009 BCS national championship season, but the show asks whether the show is pure propaganda or something general football and film cans all enjoy.

Plus, the guys offer up their picks for favorite football movies. And, Tide fans, don’t be discouraged when a little inspirational film about that school in South Bend, Ind., gets a mention high on somebody’s list.
