Review of Avatar (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 15 Dec 2009

Somehow it all works wonderfully well, thanks mainly to Cameron's story-telling skills and to the movie's fantastically detailed vision…

Review of Paranormal Activity (2007)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 07 Dec 2009

Extremely unthrilling, very obvious, very clichéd. We've seen it all before…

Review of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 26 Nov 2009

Writer-directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have expanded a 30-page children's book by Judi and Ron Barrett into a 3D animated feature…

Review of A Serious Man (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 18 Nov 2009

The result is a wonderfully dry and witty comedy which is pitch-perfect in tone…

Review of Amelia (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 11 Nov 2009

Towards the end, as the story returns to that round-the-world flight, the suspense kicks in, and Swank's performance comes into its own…

Review of 2012 (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 04 Nov 2009

It's easy to scoff at the over-reliance of CGI in contemporary cinema but for a film like this it's part and parcel of the whole, and computer…

Review of The Box (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 28 Oct 2009

The interesting thing about Richard Kelly's films is that in none of them do you know exactly what's happening, and it does not really matter,…

Review of An Education (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 13 Oct 2009

The ending of the film is particularly poignant, and confirms the theme that, even if you make mistakes, they sometimes turn into memories…

Review of Whip It (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 07 Oct 2009

It is a bit of an odd film, this, but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, and I think that's largely because of Ellen Page…

Review of Mao’s Last Dancer (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 29 Sep 2009

Quibbles aside, there's a lot to enjoy in the film; it's very efficiently made, and though never totally inspiring, it's eminently watchable…

Review of Looking for Eric (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 22 Sep 2009

Despite strong performances, this is, in the end, minor Loach…

Review of Van Diemen's Land (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 20 Sep 2009

Van Diemen's Land poses a formidable challenge for audiences, but it's a challenge well worth meeting and a film you're unlikely ever to forget…

Review of Blessed (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 08 Sep 2009

Kokkinos is never backward in confronting her audience, but she's also a sensitive portrayer of emotions that are basic to us all and with…

Review of Anvil! The Story of Anvil (2008)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 08 Sep 2009

This Is Spinal Tap was a mockumentary, but this is for real, a portrait of a band that was very influential on later metal bands, like Metallica,…

Review of Up! (1976)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 01 Sep 2009

Up is one of the best Pixar films, which means it's something very special…

Review of The Young Victoria (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 29 Aug 2009

The film looks great and Blunt gives a wonderfully confident performance, but the end result lacks real insights into what made Victoria the…

Review of Taking Woodstock (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 25 Aug 2009

Taking Woodstock takes us behind the scenes at that amazing event, and deals with ordinary people swept up in it…

Review of District 9 (2009)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 20 Aug 2009

It's a fascinating hybrid of a film, an anti-Hollywood movie which incorporates a great deal of contemporary big-budget elements…
