Attack the Block (2011) 91% EDIT “This pitch perfect blend of sci-fi action, comedy and social commentary winds up a gleeful delight.” – FILMINK (Australia) Dec 1, 2011 Full Review Burning Man (2011) 72% EDIT “It's an interesting but failed experiment.” – FILMINK (Australia) Nov 17, 2011 Full Review The Change-Up (2011) 26% EDIT “Rehashing old jokes and plotlines, this doesn't bring anything new to the table, but the cast are in top form and there's a surprising earnestness to the story.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 6, 2011 Full Review Submarine (2010) 88% EDIT “Mining similar narrative and stylistic territory to Wes Anderson, this weird and wonderful comedy drama still feels brilliantly unique.” – FILMINK (Australia) Sep 6, 2011 Full Review Friends With Benefits (2011) 69% EDIT “This surprisingly whip-smart rom-com gleefully satirises genre conventions and is boosted by the electric on-screen chemistry between its two leads.” – FILMINK (Australia) Aug 25, 2011 Full Review Beginners (2010) 86% EDIT “It does get a bit too cute stylistically, but the easy chemistry between the three leads ensures this adds up to a gentle and often touching charmer.” – FILMINK (Australia) Aug 25, 2011 Full Review Hanna (2011) 71% EDIT “While the performances are all strong, the real star here is Joe Wright's inspired direction, which transforms this action thriller into a modern fairytale.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jul 25, 2011 Full Review Needle (2010) EDIT “While it may not be innovative or stylistically impressive, this modest horror flick still delivers decent scares.” – FILMINK (Australia) Jul 25, 2011 Full Review The Snowtown Murders (2011) 85% EDIT “It's technically proficient, and succeeds in creating a perverse atmosphere, but it doesn't create a world that you'll want to inhabit for very long.” – FILMINK (Australia) May 16, 2011 Full Review Your Highness (2011) 28% EDIT “With the comedy proving uneven, this surprisingly works better as an epic adventure ride than a vulgar farce.” – FILMINK (Australia) May 12, 2011 Full Review Something Borrowed (2011) 15% EDIT “While the screenplay reveals surprising nuance and there are standout performances, this too often succumbs to the schmaltzy tropes of the genre.” – FILMINK (Australia) May 2, 2011 Full Review Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011) 48% EDIT “There's little appeal here for those outside the film's nine-to-thirteen-year-old target demographic, but parents needn't flee in terror if they're dragged along either.” – FILMINK (Australia) Apr 13, 2011 Full Review Paul (2011) 70% EDIT “That the film is an often hilarious love letter to other, better films is what prevents it from forging its own identity like Edgar Wright's mini-masterpieces.” – FILMINK (Australia) Apr 13, 2011 Full Review
