Song of the Sea (2014) 99% EDIT “A memorable and endearing animated entry... Song of the Sea sets itself above countless other children's films by ably appealing to both kids and much older cinema-goers on so many wonderful levels at once.” – Film Ireland Magazine Apr 5, 2018 Full Review 45 Years (2015) 97% EDIT “A moving film with an outstanding performance from Rampling, 45 Years demonstrates just how stirring human drama can be.” – FILMINK (Australia) Feb 17, 2016 Full Review Concussion (2015) 58% EDIT “Relying in no small part on Smith's reliably first-rate performance, Concussion is a thoughtful and interesting story neglectfully executed.” – FILMINK (Australia) Feb 17, 2016 Full Review The Big Short (2015) 89% EDIT “A refreshing and piercingly clever morality tale - whether you prefer the emotive, simplistic or in-depth depictions of what happened - the film hits its target.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jan 1, 2016 Full Review Crushed (2015) EDIT “Entertaining if somewhat predictable, Crushed is a light Aussie thriller which benefits from its well-conceived setting, even if some of the film's inventiveness is underutilised.” – FILMINK (Australia) Dec 4, 2015 Full Review Curtain (2015) EDIT “Certainly an original idea, Curtain, while in many respects imperfect, is a nice reprieve for light-hearted horror fans.” – FILMINK (Australia) Dec 4, 2015 Full Review Sucker (2015) EDIT “Sucker errs by not spending enough screen-time devising and carrying off creative cons; instead, it invests too much in sub-stories that are never fleshed out, nor as engrossing as the cons these promising characters could have pulled off.” – FILMINK (Australia) Dec 4, 2015 Full Review Finders Keepers (2015) 98% EDIT “The most arresting aspect of this documentary by far is Whisnant's very candid and unapologetic treatment of the dispute, asserting his rights as a buyer and using any creative opportunity to make the best out of his unusual fortune.” – FILMINK (Australia) Oct 1, 2015 Full Review The Ground We Won (2015) EDIT “Jumping between the players and their families, tending to their farms, a night at the bar and the games themselves, the film is an affectionate and often candid portrayal of a local Rugby-crazed community.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 24, 2015 Full Review The Sandwich Nazi (2015) EDIT “Filled with a motley mix of humorous and awkward interactions with astonished customers, The Sandwich Nazi is an interesting idea for a documentary, albeit with a premise too heavily stretched.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 24, 2015 Full Review Approaching the Elephant (2014) 100% EDIT “Approaching the Elephant is at once a cautionary tale and frequently thought-provoking insight into an uncommon form of education.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 24, 2015 Full Review Office (2015) 87% EDIT “Johnnie To's latest offering has combined some old school Hollywood sensibility and style with a very modern corporate sheen.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 16, 2015 Full Review The Falling (2014) 78% EDIT “The Falling could have been a great horror film, though you will have to wade through most of it to see why.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jul 2, 2015 Full Review The Absent One (2014) 92% EDIT “The Absent One is a consistently engaging thriller which manages to build momentum to a violent and intense conclusion.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jun 18, 2015 Full Review The Emperor's New Clothes (2015) 60% EDIT “If watching a grown man causing potential traffic hazards sounds like your thing, or Brand just gets you, then sure, go give this man your money. Otherwise, stay away, stay far, far away.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jun 12, 2015 Full Review Cymbeline (2014) 32% EDIT “Cymbeline's familiar Elizabethan tropes do not translate well to a modern context, nor do the constant references to 'Caesar' or 'Romans.'” – FILMINK (Australia) May 27, 2015 Full Review
