Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald It's a relentlessly well-meaning film and when it's not proselytising, it's working very hard to manufacture enough laughs to make the whole mix palatable. However, the effort shows. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 8, 2017 Full Review David Stratton The Australian The film is worth seeing for Waters, giving a spirited portrayal of a loving father set in his ways and unable to see that times are changing, and Breeds as his lively, talented, worldly wise daughter. Rated: 3/5 Nov 3, 2017 Full Review James Robert Douglas Guardian Elton knows how to locate the laughs in his material - and he's a shameless crowdpleaser - but his emotional reach only goes skin deep. Rated: 3/5 Aug 15, 2017 Full Review Andrew F. Peirce The Curb Three Summers is purely joyous. It's a film that makes me excited and proud to be Australian. It left me with a feeling of hope and pure warmth. Apr 4, 2020 Full Review Matthew Toomey ABC Radio (Australia) There are too many characters but Elton done a worthy job in weaving the storylines together and creating an entertaining comedy. Rated: B Dec 16, 2017 Full Review Damien Straker Impulse Gamer Rebecca Breeds is the star of Three Summers and the lone reason to endure it. Any other sensible justification seems scarce. Rated: 2/5 Nov 16, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

StephenPaul C LOL, so funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A yawnsome lecture in diversity and inclusiveness.....which tellingly can't bring itself to include a white male character that displays any independent virtue. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved this movie, particularly having experienced folk festivals and the quirks of the folky folks - and a great vehicle for Ben Elton to explore some of the Aussie stereotypes, and who we think we are. Fine performances from Rebecca Breed and Robert Sheehan - I liked his delivery of the Irish view of who claims Irish heritage, and other Elton lines and gags from the supporting cast. I know Morris dancers are an easy target, but Michael Caton did a good job there. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I thoroughly enjoyed Three Summers. It deals with many of the oft not spoken of cultural social and political matters in Australia including the sending of British children to be fostered. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review julia p Charming story and pleasant way to spend 90 mins watching the interplay and changing relationships between characters revisiting the same music festival on three consecutive summers.... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I think the critics are quite harsh with this. Ben Elton explores the Australia landscape through the festival experience. Characters include the PC police, the self righteous, the over thinkers, the want to be seen to do the right thing and the I take myself way too serious. Despite it , this movie takes us to a place that makes us feel like just having a break from the political climate and having a beer and a dance. I will not be surprised if scenes from this movie weave there way into the future context of Australian pop culture Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
