Luke Buckmaster Guardian The overall feel is one of a film engaged in a constant process of finding itself. Corr's oddly engaging performance is the glue that binds it together. Rated: 3/5 Aug 6, 2019 Full Review Mel Campbell Metro Magazine (AU) Below is both a conduit for cathartic politicised humour and a commentary on Australia’s regressive asylum policies. Jun 30, 2023 Full Review Travis Johnson The Curb Below... is a stripped-back, pitch-black sci-fi farce. Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Nicholas Anthony FILMINK (Australia) Below rides a depressing wave of relevancy, shouting at you to sit, stay, watch and listen. Dec 5, 2020 Full Review Paul Kelman FILMINK (Australia) Lahooti's film, while bleak, shines a light on Australia's moral compass and when those ethics are questioned, we're left with a glimmer of hope. Dec 5, 2020 Full Review CJ Johnson Film Mafia Lahooti's nihilistic, anti-heroic and at times ferociously angry film is visually energetic and excitingly paced, creating a vibrantly dangerous world ... the work of someone with a lot to say ... not for everyone, and all the better for it. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 4, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
