Shayda Review
Shayda is a must see, standing as a relevant and thought-provoking piece of cinematic art.
Napoleon Review
Sumptuous and expansive, Ridley Scott’s Napoleon is a gorgeously told epic, but struggles to truly capture the famed Emperor and his exploits, despite its expansive runtime. Perhaps Napoleon simply did too much to be reduced into a 2 and a half hour film?
Wonka Review
The latest Wonka film is a sweet and skilfully restrained delight, putting a spotlight on storytelling prowess.
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Review
This prequel stands as a valiant attempt to expand the Hunger Games universe, offering glimpses into the making of a future tyrant. However, it falters in execution, weighed down by a clunky narrative, uneven character dynamics, and an overextended runtime, making it a middling addition to the franchise.
Trolls: Band Together Review
A sugary, saccharine hit of pop music, wonderful colour, and a story that screams “hey don’t worry too much about me. Just focus on the music and the colour”.
The Marvels Review
This mishmash of characters and plotlines, coupled with lackluster visual effects, make for a disappointing addition to the MCU.
All of Us Strangers Review
It’ll untether you for a while, but in the end, All Of Us Strangers will completely and utterly break your heart. A film you’ll be thinking about long after you leave the theater.
One Life Review
One Life is a film that captures the essence of human compassion and heroism, offering a moving account of Nicholas Winton's incredible efforts to save the lives of child refugees during World War II. It's a story of remembrance and reflection, reminding us of the profound impact one person can have in the face of adversity.
Anatomy of a Fall Review
Anatomy of a Fall is a thought-provoking film that challenges the audience to question the nature of relationships, communication, and the complexities of human behavior.
Mercy Road Review
Stylish and suitably disorientating, if somewhat predictable, this low budget high concept feature makes the most of what it’s got.
Interview with Ali Black, artistic director of the CaSSFA!
We speak with Ali Black about the 2023 program for the Czech and Slovak Film Festival Australia!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem Review
This new installment of the Turtles feels fresh and new, and is undoubtedly deserving of your time; whether you’re a youngster discovering the foursome for the first time, or an adult reliving your childhood over a slice of pepperoni pizza.
The Equalizer 3 Review
The Equalizer 3 does feel like a little bit of a low rent version of the original, but the savagery of the violence and the gorgeous Italian setting go a long way to skipping over the budgetary constraints.
Theater Camp Review
A whip smart, hilarious piece that sends up the theater community in a way that only one who loves it dearly ever could.
Haunted Mansion Review
Haunted Mansion is a joyful little surprise.
Past Lives Review
Past Lives is a superb take on human connection, tugging at the heartstrings and leaving audiences contemplating their own pasts and futures.
Shayda Review - Melbourne International Film Festival
Shayda is a must see, standing as a relevant and thought-provoking piece of cinematic art.
Inshallah a Boy Review - Melbourne International Film Festival
Inshallah a Boy is a compelling and emotionally charged film that shines a light on the resilience of women facing adversity and the urgent need for societal change.
Passages Review - Melbourne International Film Festival
Passages is an intimate look into pure self involvement juxtaposed with the exploration of connection, two that are not mutually exclusive.
Asteroid City Review
If you are a fan of Wes you’ll get exactly what you expect, with trademark storytelling and punctilious framing. For those who are not yet won over, this film won’t change your minds.
Barbie Review
Margot Robbie is fantastic as Barbie, and the film features a winning turn from Ryan Gosling, but it is an overly crowded film that loses its message in a muddled third act that never lives up to its potential.
