If you got a chuckle from the title then you are probably going to enjoy this play. Labelling this a play may be a bit misleading however, what with the degree of audience participation and […]

SKYSCRAPER
It’s hard not to watch this movie and think of another, better movie. Die Hard, The Towering Inferno, Mission Impossible IV – take your pick; everything here has been done before and done better. Except […]
THE ROLLING STONE
You wouldn’t expect a play about anti-gay violence in Uganda to nail its comedy. Dembe (Elijah Williams), navigating a burgeoning romance with Sam (Damon Manns), an Irish Doctor himself of Ugandan background, has to be […]
PERMISSION TO SPIN
It’s not easy to make a Happy Meal toy sound so sinister, but there you go. The Apocalypse Theatre Company’s world premiere of Permission to Spin, in association with Old Fitz stalwart Red Line Productions, […]

FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E28: FALLEN KINGDOM, DAY OF THE SOLDADO & FOXTROT
Where we fight about sequels to two of our favourite and least favourite 2015 flicks and head over to the Middle East for something that is not a sequel to something from 2015 […]
SICARIO 2: DAY OF THE SOLDADO
Taylor Sheridan, and everyone involved, are better than this. Picking up some time after the now saga’s phenomenal 2015 entry, the cartels are still that big a priority for the US Government, their on-screen semi-surrogate […]
JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM
Fallen Kingdom has one of those great endings, it just makes you wait for it. The Malibu Stacey’s hat of movies, this by and large paint-by-numbers rehash of 2015’s Jurassic World almost, almost gives us […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E27: HEREDITARY, INCREDIBLES 2 & DISOBEDIENCE
Where we fight about a film you should never see with your family, a long, long-awaited sequel and an extended podcast discussion of the one and only flick with our two favourite Rachels […]
DISOBEDIENCE
This one was always going to be personal. Reviewers are supposed to step back, look, react to a film as fairly any audience would. This won’t be possible this time, and that is Disobedience’s design, […]
HEREDITARY
Hereditary breaks one of the cardinal rules of horror, upending what until this point lived up to its hype. Immediately following the death of her mother who was apparently involved in all sorts of creepy, […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E26: BLACKKKLANSMAN & SYDNEY FILM FESTIVAL WRAP
Where we fight about some ‘fo real, ‘fo real shit, the Sydney Film Festival prize, some heavier, recurring themes of this year’s Festival, the final weekend of films and the ones you should […]
BLACKKKLANSMAN
“You cannot laugh and be afraid at the same time, and the devil cannot stand mockery.” Stephen Colbert’s words on election night 2016, or those like them, figured strongly in Spike Lee’s conception of BlacKkKlansman. […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E25: SYDNEY FILM FESTIVAL
Where we fight about what we’ve seen at the Sydney Film Festival, the best flicks from the second week and what you should look out for in cinemas soon – Wednesdays 7:30PM on […]
THE GUILTY
Packing more furrowed-brow acting into a film than you are ever likely to see, The Guilty is a reliably mood-driven Danish thriller. Set entirely in an emergency response centre, Copenhagen cop Asger (Jakob Cedergren), demoted […]
THE RANGER
No good comes of no good punk teens getting up to no good. The near-annual Sydney Film Festival punk rock-metal slasher gore horror-shocker ritual rears its head in the guise of The Ranger, one that […]
LEAVE NO TRACE
It’s rare you see something so powerful emerge from that so inscrutable. Ben Foster, now a force in Hollywood to be reckoned with following phenomenal turns in the likes of Hell or High Water, is […]
THE FIELD GUIDE TO EVIL
Bite-size horror for those who enjoy their shocks in smaller doses, Deathgasm Producer Ant Timpson’s thematic follow-up to the ABCs of Death focuses on the myth and folklore that has pervaded centuries of fear. An […]
ROCKABUL
Afghanistan’s first psychedelic metal band will hopefully not be their last. Following District Unknown through their travails, travels and some less than common receptions, Australian documentarian Travis Beard has produced a fairly intimate portrait of […]
PRODUCER ANT TIMPSON TALKS ‘THE FIELD GUIDE TO EVIL’
“The directive to them was to find origin stories that hadn’t been visible for a long time, that was the dark well they all went down and it was really interesting to see […]
