Ooooh, it's a bumper episode of The Movie Robcast this time. Robs Daniel & Wallis cast their critical eye over four, that's right, four movies! Kicking off with Saw X, the horror prequel, well, sequel to Saw, and prequel to Saw II and the rest. Think of it as Saw 1.5.
Then onto Rise of the Footsoldier: Vengeance, which Mr. Wallis was surprised to find is a cut above previous instalments in the franchise.
The Robs reach different opinions on A Haunting in Venice, the latest Hercules Poirot film from Kenneth Branagh, and they finish talking about The Creator, the new sci-fi epic from Rogue One director Gareth Edwards. Phew!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
