Review of Kath & Kimderella (2012)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 05 Sep 2012

It feels slow, slack and aimless and it seems to last forever…

Review of Love (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 29 Aug 2012

Love is beautiful and lovely and as remote as a distant star…

Review of Money or Love (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 29 Aug 2012

Love is beautiful and lovely and as remote as a distant star…

Review of The Bourne Legacy (2012)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 15 Aug 2012

The action - foot chases, gun battles, and one lengthy episode on motorbikes in the choked streets of Manila - is really, really good…

Review of Careless Love (1976)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 16 May 2012

A small film made on a low budget in a style reminiscent of similarly scaled Euro and American pictures, Duigan shoots the action straightforwardly;…

Review of The Dictator (2012)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 16 May 2012

The Dictator is very funny. But with Baron Cohen and his work, the laughs were part of a bigger project. Now it seems to be the only point…

Review of Trishna (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 09 May 2012

Watching it unwind is one of Trishna's great pleasures…

Review of Café de Flore (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 25 Apr 2012

Playful, painful, willfully strange, deeply emotional and deliberately, delightfully obscure at times, Café de Flore, from French-Canadian…

Review of Our Idiot Brother (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 03 Nov 2011

Lugubrious, bumbling and sit-com predictable, Our Idiot Brother has a couple of good ideas, no style, an episodic structure and some charming…

Review of Caught Inside (2010)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 05 Oct 2011

On one level, it's pure visceral filmmaker, a necessary bloodletting, and yet, it feels a little phoney and not quite right…

Review of Higher Ground (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 04 Oct 2011

Farmiga has etched something deeply personal and idiosyncratic here: a movie about a character who is simply trying to understand herself and…

Review of Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 03 Aug 2011

This is paced like a drama, not a popcorn movie; it's full of quiet moments of reflection and it takes its time in laying some very clever…

Review of Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 29 Jun 2011

The effects and 3D have already received a lot of advanced praise; it sounds like I'm a spoil-sport but the CGI action has a glossy sheen that…

Review of Super 8 (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 08 Jun 2011

The performances are all fine, the scares are good, and it looks and sounds like a cross between E.T. and Lost…

Review of Super 8 (1988)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 08 Jun 2011

The performances are all fine, the scares are good, and it looks and sounds like a cross between E.T. and Lost…

Review of Cane Toads: The Conquest (2010)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 01 Jun 2011

Conquest doesn't feel like it's nearly as much fun as its predecessor…

Review of The Lost Bladesman (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 27 Apr 2011

The Lost Bladesman starts off big and rather cool and ends up an intimate epic hot and heavy with spent passions and an aura of sadness that's…

Review of Thor (2011)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 20 Apr 2011

It seems grandiose to talk of emotional authenticity in the case of a movie like Thor but the actors actually seem involved in the characters…

Review of Brighton Rock (2010)

By Peter Galvin (80) for sbs.com.au (697) on 13 Apr 2011

Joffe has adapted an ambitious work but his film doesn't capture the depth and longing in Greene's story…
