Finding Dory Movie Review
Finding Nemo is such a timeless institution in our movie culture - whether you be a child or adult - that a sequel which in large parts rehashes its predecessor is simply a moot exercise.
//
Finding Dory follows almost identical beats and set ups - a fish searching the open ocean for lost loved ones; encountering frightening denizens of the sea; aided by new found friends; becomes ‘imprisoned’ in an aquarium from which they must escape etc. In fact, every element of Nemo has its ...
Mr. Right
Anna Kendrick (Pitch Perfect, Up In The Air) plays Martha McKay, someone who is definitely unlucky in love. She crosses paths with Francis (Sam Rockwell) a Zen like hitman who soon becomes Mr. Right. She is neurotic and over the top, he is cool and in control, together they make an admirable team.
//
The film’s script is not particularly believable in its execution of story but its use as a vehicle to promote the growing relationship between its two main players is quite engaging. ...

Hunt For The Wilderpeople Movie Review
Named as ‘One of ten new directors to watch’ by Variety magazine in 2007 following his excellent feature debut, Eagle Vs. Shark and having received widespread acclaim for his follow up film, Boy, Waititi now presents one last ‘small’ film before he bursts Peter-Jackson-style onto the Hollywood scene with his helming of the forthcoming Thor: Ragnarok.
Hunt For The Wilderpeople follows very much in the flavour of Waititi's previous features. It too skates the fine line between ...
The Angry Birds Movie Review
Led by social outcast and unnaturally angry, Red (Jason Sudeikis), the birds make for the piggies' island where they use a slingshot to destroy their town and retrieve the eggs. If you've played the game (and who hasn't), the plot will be entirely familiar and dully predictable.
//
What is less predictable, however, is the film’s release date that could scarcely be further from a school holiday. Given the kiddie interest in the film, this release slot is, to say the ...

Bad Neighbours 2 Movie Review
The regular cast has returned with Seth Rogen as lovable big bear stoner Mac Radner, Rose Byrne, letting more of her Australian accent colour her performance as his wife and the buffed out Zac Efron as the boy with the Peter Pan complex. Efron is underrated as a comic actor and shows great timing and even sneaks in some real emotion. Joining the cast this time is Kick Ass Chloë Grace Moretz as the couple’s main adversary.

Having the Radner’s opponents this time ...
Eddie the Eagle Movie Review
It is perhaps a result of the popularity of geek chic in recent times that a movie about an athlete who goes to the Olympics and comes dead last in his event has become a commercial viability. Such a story has precedence in truth, of course, with Eddie ‘The Eagle’ Edwards, a British ski jumper that was so far behind the competitive field of his Olympic peers that he endeared himself to people the world over for simply having the guts to ‘have a go’.
It must be said from the ...
