Reviews
Kick-Ass 2
This lacklustre sequel to a satirical superhero comedy champions cartoonish carnage & uncouth utterances as the height of humour.
Drinking Buddies
Writer/director Joe Swanberg's drama about 'friends without benefits' may be the mumblecore genre's first mainstream hit.
Elysium
Neill Blomkamp's second science fiction film once again balances spectacle with social commentary.
All is Lost
Robert Redford stars in this almost wordless survival epic; an experience of pure cinema, immersive, simple and sophisticated.
Frances Ha
Noah Baumbach's latest film is filled with the verity and vividness of life, for better and for worse.
A Field in England
Ben Wheatley has succeeded in making one of the most effective surrealist films to have been widely distributed in years.
Bastards
Stylistic excess cannot conceal the slightness of the latest film from French director Claire Denis.
Cosmic Psychos: Blokes You Can Trust
Matt Weston's documentary charts the colourful three-decade history of Australian rockers, the Cosmic Psychos.
The Dance of Reality
Maverick director Alejandro Jodorowsky uses the medium of film to exorcise his own personal demons.
Cheap Thrills
Debut director EL Katz perfectly stages this series of escalating dares with an honest believability.
