" Pensive and melancholy, this haunting and remarkable film from Ari Folman hones in on memory and how stimulating triggers unlock a traumatic war-experience previously blocked by the subconscious%u2026 Mesmerising cinema"
Posted Sep 7, 2008
 
Waltz with Bashir (2008)85%

" The animation seems to have been outsourced to two factories: one for the galactic battles and machines, the other for the Jedi and related characters. The latter seem clunky and simplistic, much like the film's screenplay"

The Clone Wars (2008)19%

" Young Julian Shaw knows a good story when he sees one; he was 15 when he saw this one, a Pieter-Dirk Uys show. He decided there and then that he should make a film about this dynamo of a man."

" This true story about one of the many tunnel escape attempts under the Berlin wall in the 60s provides all the excitement of an escape movie, given extra depth and resonance by its real life genesis... a superb film"
Posted Aug 3, 2008
 
The Tunnel (2005)84%

" The tone of the film wavers between satire and horror-comedy, but that doesn't diminish the entertainment value of what plays like a tongue in cheek celebration of a woman who turns her imperfection into empowerment"

P.S. (2004)56%

" Colleen McCullough knows how to cook up a recipe for effective melodrama and Lex Marinos knows how to direct one."
Posted Jul 21, 2008
 
An Indecent Obsession (1985)n/a
/
 
" This is a film of two superlative performances from Richard Harris and Robert Duvall, who play an odd couple drawn together by their common loneliness as they become friends in the winter of their lives"
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
Wrestling Ernest Hemingway (1993)63%
/
 
" Adapted from one of the most popular novelists in Wilbur Smith, Shout at the Devli puts our protagonists in wildly dangerous situations, in which they have to survive everything from crocodiles to the Germans"
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
Shout at the Devil (1976)n/a
/
 
" Settle back and let this old fashioned but entirely enjoyable epic (from Aussie writer Morris West's novel) take you on a journey that is in many ways every bit as relevant today as it was then"
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
The Shoes of the Fisherman (1968)50%
/
 
" Australian actress Rachel Griffiths is a knockout as Bettina (real name Sandra) the hooker who finds her own badly needed affection in Parvez. "
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
My Son, the Fanatic (1999)76%
/
 
" The frequent collision of comedy and drama is breathtakingly real, and Anton Glanzelius is terrific as Ingemar, a smart 12 year old with a philosophical bent"
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
My Life as a Dog (1987)100%
/
 
" From the very first shot it's clear that cinematographer John Seale contributes enormously to the film's success. It's without doubt one of the most wonderfully photographed films of Australian cinema. "
Posted Jul 19, 2008
 
Careful He Might Hear You (1984)n/a
/
 
" You know that warm glow that comes over you, when you're sitting by a crackling fire? That's how I felt watching this gentle and uplifting glimpse into the lives of four senior citizens battling against their own demons."
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
How About You (2008)n/a
/
 
" Tamara Jenkins's film tackles the difficult subject of facing up to an ageing parent's mental and physical demise with overt sensitivity but no punches are spared. "
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
The Savages (2007)90%
/
 
" The first onscreen meeting of screen legends Jackie Chan and Jet Li is possibly reason enough to see this fantasy, whose extravagant martial arts sequences are choreographed by Woo-ping Yuen, whose signature was inked in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon"
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)64%
/
 
" An ode to Hollywood movies of the 40s and 50s, with its rich story, its post-war middle class mores of US society, its production design and its characters blundering around a moral dilemma."
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
Married Life (2008)58%
/
 
" This wonderful humanitarian story -- especially relevant on the eve of the Beijing Olympics -- deserves to be told and it's a bit of a surprise it hasn't been told before, while Peter Norman was still alive."
Posted Jul 16, 2008
 
Salute (2008)n/a
/
 
" Reminiscent of Ingmar Bergman's spare style when exploring similar themes (eg The Seventh Seal), Dryer's work is disciplined and focused, rather like a Jesuit, really. "
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Ordet (1955)100%
/
 
" The storyline is simply bizarre, but somehow all the crazy elements fall together in one appealing madcap frolic in this 1987 Madonna vehicle that ends up being more than the sum of its parts. "

Who's That Girl (1987)23%

" I started watching and couldn't stop, sucked in by the addictive music of J.J. Cale. "
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
To Tulsa And Back - On Tour With JJ Cale (2006)n/a
/
 
" Mr Woodcock is ok as far as predictable, low-brow Hollywood comedies are concerned, and it's considerably elevated by its above average cast."
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Mr. Woodcock (2007)13%

" Jennifer Lopez is superb as Puchi, delivering a totally credible, multi dimensional character. "

" Dryer's precision proves highly effective in creating the film's mood of dark oppression, and every detail is perfectly in keeping with the film's tone %u2013 which often resembles a thriller. "

Day of Wrath (1943)100%

" The eternal question of why Chapman shot Lennon is not answered. And that's probably because there IS no real reason. "
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Chapter 27 (2008)20%
/
 
" Like all the best documentaries, Up the Yangtze shows us something we've never seen before, with insight and meaning. Up the Ynagtze goes down in movie history as a work of lasting value"
Posted Jul 10, 2008
 
Up The Yangtze (2007)95%
/
 
" Heralding a return to form for Eddie Murphy, this cleverly conceived and executed sci-fi comedy offers plenty of laughs for all ages. "
Posted Jul 9, 2008
 
Meet Dave (2008)20%
/
 
" Puerile and disappointing, what might have been a comical, irreverent look at Eastern guru wisdom a la Mike Myers is a load of balderdash, anchored by an elephantine bag of toilet humour, oversized penises and midget jokes"
Posted Jul 7, 2008
 
The Love Guru (2008)14%
/
 
" This joyous frolic propelled and inspired by the timeless music of ABBA is a bit like Grease for the older set, with Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan playing the leading roles"
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
Mamma Mia! (2008)53%
/
 
" Performances are great, but they are restrained by the writing. Consequently the film ends up more like a workshop for actors than a satisfying drama for audiences. I am not even sure who those audiences are..."
