Disney has never been one to limit its ambitions, and there’s no better evidence of this than Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee’s Frozen – the studio’s latest fairytale feature. The film’s storyline does not shy away from the fantastical.
In Jackson’s view, it seems nothing is done unless it is done to excess and this dizzying flurry of action may be exhausting for some. However, it is nothing if not a spectacle and leaves me eagerly waiting for more.
Plenty of laughs are to be had with Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues through genuinely astute and witty television journalistic observations, and through some less erudite gags.

When we watch a film, we often lose focus on the complexities and persuasion that it took behind the scenes to get a film even into production. As is the case with the production of Mary Poppins in the early 1960s when Walt Disney finally lured Poppins author P.L. Travers to Hollywood.
Con movies are an old favourite of Hollywood. Immerging like clock work ever year with a star-studded cast of quick talking wise guys, glamorous girls, shinny backgrounds, fast-moving camera action and non-linier plots to keep audiences on their exhilarated heels. With American Hustle, director David O. Russell throws his hat in the ring of this long-standing genre.
This series has been so perfect. Each episode as moving and beautifully written as the last. There isn’t a flaw in sight. Perfect acting. Perfect stories. Perfectly told. It was great to see Ernie Dingo back on television after a long hiatus, he reminded of us of his talent and his on screen presence. Just beautiful. If you have missed this series you must go and buy it on DVD and experience the awesomeness of Redfern Now.
Very recently, Film Blerg editor James Madden had the opportunity to discuss STILL LIFE, one of 2013’s Tropfest finalist entries, with writer and director Martin Sharpe. Sharpe has already won the Qantas Film Cadetship at this year’s Tropfest for his surreal and unique short film about a museum security guard who falls into the world of the artworks he patrols.

A middle-aged slacker, who as a young man had effectively masturbated for a living under the name ‘Starbuck’, discovers that he is the father of 533 kids. I thought Delivery Man’s plot sounded quite interesting when I saw the trailer for this a few weeks prior. How hindsight makes fools of us all.
