Movie Info

DARREN 'DAZZA' COOK is a loveable suburban everyman with a long-established belief that his family is related to Captain James Cook. Dazza harbours a passion for barbequing, but when he accidentally gives his neighbours food poisoning at his popular regular Saturday BBQ, Dazza's reputation and dignity are on the line. To make amends he seeks tutelage from the tyrannical Scottish chef known simply as THE BUTCHER. Together they enter an international barbecue competition, pitting Dazza's homespun recipes against the world's best BBQ chefs.

Critic Reviews for The BBQ

All Critics (10)

A personality void dud of a comedy, undercooked in its writing and bland in its delivery.

March 19, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

There is more character development in this movie than in some I could name that have received multiple Oscar nominations. It made me laugh a lot, too.

March 2, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The film is abysmal and it all comes down to an absolutely woeful script.

February 26, 2018 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

Now, where to begin with how bad this film is? In the interests of brevity, most of the film's woes stem from one main problem: it has no frigging idea what it is trying to do.

February 23, 2018 | Rating: 0.5/5 | Full Review…

The BBQ starts with a terrible script and goes downhill from there.

February 22, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The new Australian comedy The BBQ is so overwhelmingly bland, you often forget how faintly awful it consistently remains from beginning to end.
