Where we fight about the fightingest film ever, Bodied, and what you can look forward to in cinemas and else from the Melbourne International Film Festival with Another Bloody Movie Podcast’s Sean Coates […]
MOBY DICK
There are many advantages to books – they paint a picture for us, while permitting us to dive deep into our imaginations. Sport for Jove’s production of Moby Dick manages this with aplomb in this […]
NELL GWYNN
Chemistry can make or break a play – here, thankfully, they nailed it. The New Theatre’s latest production, Nell Gwynn, is an exemplar of rags to riches stories, here chronicling the rise of ‘low-born’ Nell (Bishanyia […]

CARRIE: THE MUSICAL
Musical isn’t where one’s mind first goes when they think of Carrie. Here brought to life at Marrickville’s Depot Theatre fresh off Riverdale’s tongue in cheek take on the play, the first Stephen King novel […]
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE X 6
This is the best Mission Impossible film since the first one and that’s now the fourth time you’ve heard that. Going against the grain in more ways than one, super-agent Ethan Hunt’s escapades are not […]
CRY-BABY
It’s amazing what you can do with simple, clever set design. The Hayes theatre is not a big one but you wouldn’t know it from watching Cry-Baby. Putting on an extravagantly exuberant show in the […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E31: TAIWAN FILM FESTIVAL, MAMMA MIA, EQUALIZER 2 & JAMES GUNN
Where we chat to the Director of the inaugural Taiwan Film Festival Benson Wu, fight all things ‘Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again’ with film critic Debbie Zhou, cover the James Gunn controversy […]
MAMMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN
There’s a lot to be said for a film with absolutely no pretence. Scratch that – there’s a lot to be said for TWO films with absolutely no pretence which know their audience and what […]
LOVE SONG DEDICATIONS (WITHOUT RICHARD MERCER)
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 […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E30: TIME TRAVEL TO JULY 1998 – ARMAGEDDON, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN & THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY
Where we take the Tardis back to 18 July, 1998 to review a newly-released game-changer with several rising stars, Jurassic Park Director Steven Spielberg’s new drama out next week and the only film […]

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 […]

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, […]
