Film Review: Blancanieves (2012)

Film Review: 28 Hotel Rooms (2012)
by28 Hotel Rooms is an interesting concept, a very close character study and an overall relatable story. Sadly missing out on a release in Australian cinemas, it is a very subtle, yet stimulating film that really hits home.
Film Review: Renoir (2012)
byEven though it’s at times too content to cost by on it’s interesting concept and beautiful imagery, and lags a little bit in the second act (perhaps because it has more of an idea than a story), Renoir is still a most enjoyable film that with its account of Jean Renoir’s emergence of passion for cinema, movie buffs won’t want to miss.

byAlso featuring some truly beautiful picturesque imagery, Once Upon A Time In Vietnam is a decent enough movie, it just doesn’t live up to the pedigree of its title, being more Once Upon A Time In Mexico than Once Upon a Time In The West.
Film Review: Prisoners (2013)
byPrisoners, directed by Denis Villeneuve and written by Aaron Guzikowski, focusses on a relatively simple premise. Two children go missing, and a lengthy police investigation starts. However, the film is elevated beyond the trappings of predictability and mediocrity by its layered plot, accomplished, confident direction, and compelling performances.
Film Review: About Time (2013)
byAt the end of the day, it seems cheesy, but other than love, what is there really worth going back in time for? Everything else is icing if you have a happy family and a few good laughs. A real first date winner.
Film Review: In Bob We Trust (2013)
bySupported by the Melbourne International Film Festival’s Premiere Fund and one of the highlights of this year’s festival, In Bob We Trust is entertaining and extremely touching. This is a film for everyone, regardless of whether you know much about McGuire or not.
