From Molly Reynolds and Shekhar Bassi, ShoPaapaa is a mundane and excruciating 95 minutes – but will become an enduring portrait of 2020.
A reworking of the 1892 Henry Lawson short story, this film is a subversive survival story.
The message of Eva Orner’s new documentary is spot on, the logic of its argument faultless. But it tells us things more than it makes us feel things, and this is seldom beneficial in the medium.
There are many nods to Mesopotamian myth in Marvel’s Eternals. The character of Gilgamesh is the first ancient Near Eastern hero with a leading role in a Marvel film.
The hero of The Green Knight, played brilliantly by Dev Patel, is flawed and less than honorable. The film is a deliberately unromantic exploration of the world of King Arthur and his court.
This gem of a documentary explores the life — and furniture — of a Melbourne icon.
Perth band The Triffids were indie pioneers, and their charismatic vocalist David McComb, who died at 36, wrote lyrics imbued with the Western Australian landscape. A new film charts his story.
The problem isn’t the film’s adherence to a tried and true formula, or its absolutely rudimentary narrative, but the flat and careless execution of it all.
From working on Jaws to putting herself in danger, Valerie Taylor vowed to change public attitudes to sharks. A new film dives deeply into her underwater life.
Hailed as an Australian hero, Rosemary Kariuki works to connect refugee and migrant women through their strengths and joys — rather than treating them like ‘problems’ to be fixed.
A neuroscientist and a clinician watched two new films about dementia. They recognised what they saw.
A new film ignores some of the most striking details of the man who sold a fake Vermeer to the Nazis.
Sleeping through a live performance would usually indicate it wasn’t engaging. But as a film about Max Richter’s Sleep concerts explains, this is exactly the response the composer was hoping for.
The excavation of the 7th century Saxon ship at Sutton Hoo was remarkable – but we can’t ignore the harmful rhetoric about the ‘Anglo-Saxon’ race in a new Netflix film dramatising the find.
A new documentary follows a group of young Australian climate activists, loosely weaving their fresh protests with historical events. It’s powerful, if a little too polite.
The true story of the artist Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) is a Greek tragedy. What a pity this documentary paints him as bland.
The sequel to 2018’s Occupation, this new alien invasion film is overly ambitious, both incomprehensible and shrill.
Kate Winslet plays palaeontologist Mary Anning in the film Ammonite. The love story may be fictional — but how does the science stand up?
Based on Joanna Rakoff’s memoir of working for JD Salinger’s agent, the film lacks some of the wit but none of the heart of Joanna’s story.
