Jen, an American soldier stationed at a remote outpost in Australia, discovers it pays to be skeptical.

Promising as it sounds, in practice The Tumbler is a mess. The characters are strictly stock types -- none of them especially sympathetic -- and the story soon becomes so convoluted that it's easy to get lost in the swirl of explanations and flashbacks.

This ultra low-budget Australian film, made by Marc Gracie (director of You and Your Stupid Mate), is saddled with quite a number of major credibility problems, both in terms of plot and character.

2.5/5

There are so many scores being settled here, by the filmmakers as well as their characters, that tension takes a holiday, along with credibility and fun.

The Tumbler will divert genre fans who don't mind the absence of gloss.

2.5/5

There's a lot of invention here that doesn't get a chance to come alive. Fast moving, short and full of ideas, The Tumbler has the kind of nervy, larger than life quality of the best of '50s B cinema.

A twisting thriller with a message to boot.
