0/5 0% A Heartbeat Away (2010) " Seriously: you have no idea how badly you need to make sure you and your loved ones stay away from this. " — The Vine
Posted Mar 14, 2011
47% The A-Team (2010) " It's like they're not even trying. " — The Vine
Posted Jun 7, 2010
2/5 36% The Thing (2011) " Relying almost entirely on special effects for the few scares it does have, it's the kind of uninspired remake that kills franchises stone dead." — The Vine
Posted Oct 11, 2011
2/5 26% Arthur (2011) " It's hard to see how a remake of Arthur could possibly go wrong. Well, apart from the fact that Russell Brand isn't really likable and alcoholism isn't funny." — The Vine
Posted Apr 20, 2011
2/5 47% Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2: Rodrick Rules (2011) " If you have hair anywhere on your body below the neck, you've got better things to do." — The Vine
Posted Apr 13, 2011
3/5 59% Any Questions for Ben? () " It's a slick, lightweight feel-good film about a bunch of characters who happen to be sharing their glamorous, hard-partying lifestyle with you for a couple of hours." — The Vine
Posted Feb 10, 2012
3/5 78% Crazy, Stupid, Love. (2011) " Stone and Gosling are great together; anyone want to put them together in a rom-com spin-off, you've sold one ticket right here." — The Vine
Posted Sep 29, 2011
3/5 60% Blame (2010) " There's nothing going on here that you haven't seen done before elsewhere and better, but there's still enough here that's fresh." — The Vine
Posted Jun 15, 2011
3/5 53% Brighton Rock (2011) " Another by-the-numbers UK gangster flick that doesn't get enough wrong to hate or enough right to like." — The Vine
Posted Apr 13, 2011
3.5/5 83% Wish You Were Here (2013) " Australian films rarely have difficultly looking good, and this one makes both Sydney and Cambodia look gorgeous and yet slightly menacing." — The Vine
Posted Apr 26, 2012
3.5/5 33% Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011) " It may not leave you wanting more of the pirate's life, but when you've got cameos from Dame Judi Dench and Keith Richards you must be doing something right." — The Vine
Posted May 17, 2011
3.5/5 70% Limitless (2011) " If you have any moral qualms about checking out a film where about 60% of the suspense comes from a junkie trying to hide or retrieve his stash, this isn't the film for you." — The Vine
Posted Mar 15, 2011
3.5/5 67% The Company Men (2011) " It's time once again for Hollywood's favourite game: feel sorry for rich people. " — The Vine
Posted Mar 8, 2011
73% The Waiting City (2011) " 2010 is shaping up to be yet another bumper year for Australian film, and The Waiting City should be a big part of that. " — The Vine
Posted Jul 13, 2010
54% I Love You Too (2010) " For the most part I Love You Too is an Australian romantic comedy that's both romantic and funny. Which is a lot more than you might have expected." — The Vine
Posted May 18, 2010
4/5 62% Café de Flore (2012) " Vallee tells the stories in an impressionistic way; Antoine's side of things occasionally verges on Tree of Life territory." — The Vine
Posted Apr 26, 2012
4/5 50% Mirror Mirror (2012) " Mirror Mirror isn't the kind of classic that wins big awards or lavish praise. It's just a really sweet, charming film, and we can never have enough of those." — The Vine
Posted Mar 27, 2012
4/5 60% Real Steel (2011) " Whatever your age, if you've ever crashed two toy robots together you won't want to miss this." — The Vine
Posted Oct 5, 2011
4/5 90% Face to Face (2013) " For a film that is still mostly just people in a room talking -- and more importantly, for a low-budget Australian drama, a category that often rings alarm bells -- Face to Face impresses in just about every way." — The Vine
Posted Sep 6, 2011
4/5 95% The Guard (2011) " It's a good thing the two main characters are played by actors who can make these shifts in tone work otherwise this could have been one big mess" — The Vine
Posted Aug 25, 2011
4/5 84% The Tree of Life (2011) " It is a beautiful, intelligent film, sharp and insightful about the bond between father and son, thoughtful and amazed at the world that created them. " — The Vine
Posted Jun 28, 2011
4/5 66% Insidious (2011) " It's intelligent, it's well-paced, it's packed with both unsettling scenes and pop-up shocks that never feel cheap." — The Vine
Posted May 12, 2011
4/5 72% Paul (2011) " This is both a fitting tribute to those "my best friend is an alien/computer/talking cat/whatever" movies from the '80s and funny on its own terms, and that's two more boxes ticked than a lot of comedies manage. " — The Vine
Posted Apr 8, 2011
4/5 83% The Lincoln Lawyer (2011) " About as good a case as Hollywood can put together for a stay of execution for the big-screen legal drama. " — The Vine
Posted Mar 30, 2011
4/5 43% Dinner for Schmucks (2010) " Rudd and Carell turn out to be a near-perfect double act, with Rudd's exasperated, manic nice guy act a perfect foil for Carell, who gives the kind of broad, nutty, idiot man-child performance we haven't seen from him since his Anchorman days. " — The Vine
Posted Sep 29, 2010
4/5 100% Balibo (2009) " The occasional misstep does not blunt this gripping thriller's impact. Or its fierce anger." — Empire Magazine Australasia
Posted Aug 10, 2009
4.5/5 98% The Loved Ones (2012) " Grueling in the best possible way, this is easily the best Australian horror film since Wolf Creek." — The Vine
