Etan F This series is very original and feature extraordinarily dry humor. It is well worth watching. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Interwoven relationship stories down under. It never really happens like this but the characters can be warmed to. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Quite a nice little edgy film that you really wish there was more of. It's nothing outstanding in some ways but in other ways it's quite unusual and a film that could quite easily pass you by, which would be a shame because it's rather good and makes you smile and laugh a fair amount. There should be more films like this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member " If you play tennis with the Devil you can't complain when he cheats." Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Watched this only to see Hugo Weaving in something else. Strange Planet - Strange Film. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Good idea to cover a year in their lives, even better to come in and witness characters that had already been settled too. Good screenplay, cast and chilled out soundtrack. Another in a long line of very watchable Australian films Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
