Freakier Friday Review
Against the odds, Freakier Friday delivers on its promise, revitalizing an iconic early noughties classic in a way that feels fresh, worthy but also just like the OG!
The Naked Gun Review
A nostalgic gag‑a‑minute revival that sputters when it forgets to build anything real.
Weapons Review
Weapons is an engaging, unsettling watch with strong performances across the board and a genuinely intriguing premise.
AIDC’s and Screen Queensland’s Regionality comes to the Sunshine Coast
AIDC and Screen Queensland bring leading documentary conference Regionality to the Sunshine Coast once again this July!
Superman Review
David Corenswet is a fantastic Superman, but James Gunn’s new take on the iconic hero is a chaotic mess - filled to the brim with overstuffed plot, deeply unsubtle political allegories and a heap of middling CGI. The new Superman lacks the emotional depth to make any of it land.
Jurassic World: Rebirth Review
Like jumping back into an old memory, the new Jurassic World: Rebirth offers plenty in the way of nostalgia - the good kind - without really pushing the boat out in terms of plot. And that’s more than OK.
F1: The Movie Review
High-octane action supports a somewhat cliche tale in this mile-a-minute driving extraordinaire!
Elio Review
Serviceable enough entertainment, Elio never really hits major heights in its examination of uniqueness and loneliness.
El 47 Review
The perfect amount of heartwarming drama, laugh out loud comedy, and true story realism to kick off the Spanish Film Festival in Australia!
Materialists Review
Materialists is an assured, beautiful and immersive drama that has the trappings of a rom-com, without ever really falling into the tropes of that genre; both high, and low.
Dangerous Animals Review
Dangerous Animals is worth the admission for the frothy crescendo of an ending.
Ballerina Review
Full of gun-toting violence, Ballerina doesn’t quite capture the magic of John Wick.
How To Train Your Dragon Review
Gorgeously rendered, this live action update has a lot of heart, despite being a pretty much shot-for-shot remake of the animated original.
The Phoenician Scheme Review
The Phoenician Scheme is a lovely time in the cinema for Wes fans, but it feels a little underdone.
Lilo & Stitch Review
Full of fun, heart and warmth, Lilo & Stitch is the rare Disney live adaptation that really works.
Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning Review
Overly long and a little messy, this final Mission Impossible is saved by the wild stunts and Tom Cruise’s irrepressible charm.
Thunderbolts* Review
A darker than normal fare from Marvel, anchored by some wonderful actors and visuals, but also once again succumbing to the structural barriers of films like this.
The Amateur Review
The Amateur never quite kicks into high gear, in either of the worlds it wants to play in!
A Minecraft Movie Review
Against all of my better judgement, and all my will, A Minecraft Movie was a huge barrel of fun and laughter, and I can do nothing but recommend you check it out either in cinemas or when it comes to streaming.
