The two leads, who like so many young Australian actors these days have made their names in American TV series, are utterly, creepily convincing...

Ready Steady Cut

A mesmerising psychological noir thriller in which a one night stand turns sour; and that's just the start.

Rated: 3.5/5

The Curb

This is, at its core, a rape revenge film, and while Pimped is co-written by a woman, there's a distinctly masculine perspective to this story, making it a muddled affair that wants to have its cake and voraciously eat it too.

This could have been intriguing if the film's ideas were clearer. But they aren't. ... Mystery and ambiguity can be gripping and exciting onscreen, but as I watched Pimped I mainly felt bored and annoyed.

Rated: 2.5/5

Nobody's Reading This But Me

Lewis is a smarmy sybarite who plays women as sexual chess pieces with housemate Kenny as his gormless second banana. When their paths cross with party girl Sarah, they're all headed straight to hell.

Slick, ripper little low-budget thriller in which a very nasty sex "game" played by party-loving womaniser Lewis (Benedict Samuel) goes very wrong, leading to a lethal domino effect.

Rated: 3/5

Overall Pimped delivers some stunning visuals and sets up a great world, particularly through the sets that we see for a good portion of the film. Our actors deliver good performances, but the sadly the filmï¿ 1/2 1/2 1/2(TM)s major plot points or twists are told without any real confirmation and understanding revealed to he audience. Selected moments, particularly in the opening and closing of this film, can also feel like a slow burn. Nevertheless, for a directional debut by David Barker this is a proud achievement and I personally look forward to David's next upcoming film. - Finesse Movie Reviews
