Review of The Guard (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 13 Jul 2011

Brendan Gleeson's inevitable march towards Oscar's podium has taken a few great big f***ing leaps forward thanks to John Michael McDonagh's…

Review of Delhi Belly (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 07 Jul 2011

Imran Khan has every right to expect broader international recognition after his leading man turn in Delhi Belly...Given Hollywood's paucity…

Review of Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 06 Jul 2011

Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll ticks all the music biopic boxes, but Whitecross wisely ramps things up by looking at Dury's life with the same sort…

Review of Double Dhamaal (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 29 Jun 2011

Determinedly colourful, ADD-edited and over-staged in every way, Double Dhamaal leaves one feeling grimy, thoroughly demoralised and viscerally…

Review of Mr. Popper's Penguins (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 29 Jun 2011

Mark Waters plants his camera and mostly lets Jim Carrey work his comedic schtick (and, thankfully, his dramatic chops) in Mr. Popper's Penguins…

Review of Project Nim (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 22 Jun 2011

James Marsh's Project Nim ruminates on ideas of 'nature versus nurture' but these are by no means the only contentious issues raised in this…

Review of Armadillo (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 11 Jun 2011

Aficionados of the first-person format will be salivating over the footage captured by Metz and his cinematographer Lars Skree…

Review of Attenberg (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 11 Jun 2011

Dogtooth and Attenberg are staunchly impenetrable works (closely resembling) art installations that don't resonate beyond a select few; if…

Review of Happy, Happy (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 11 Jun 2011

Happy Happy is an achingly awkward, surprisingly moving and very funny skewering of modern society's tendency towards self-fulfilment over…

Review of Cairo 6,7,8 (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 02 Jun 2011

Writer/director Mohamed Diab leaves no room for ambiguity in his depiction of modern Cairo…

Review of Oranges and Sunshine (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 01 Jun 2011

Oranges and Sunshines (so-named after the promise made to the children of their new life, far away) works best during its most intimate moments,…

Review of Soul Surfer (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 28 May 2011

Hamilton's story is a human one with spiritual underpinnings, yet to the detriment of the inherent drama, the filmmaker tells it the other way around…

Review of I Love You Phillip Morris (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 14 May 2011

But truth be told, no film has conveyed true love quite as convincingly in a very long time…

Review of The Colors of the Mountain (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 09 May 2011

The Colombian/Panamanian co-production is a measured yet potent debut for the filmmaker, who exhibits a sublime command of his largely-inexperienced…

Review of The Human Resources Manager (2010)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 05 May 2011

Riklis captures and inspires a sense of character and regional authenticity in his work, just as he did so wonderfully with The Lemon Tree…

Review of Water for Elephants (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 05 May 2011

The film's very old-fashioned sense of right and wrong is refreshing…

Review of 3-D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 01 May 2011

Liberally flaunting the former with little regard for the latter, Christopher Sun's 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy is a likeable, energetic…

Review of Arthur (2011)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 20 Apr 2011

It's a cynical, profit-motivated exploitation of a warmly-regarded character; everything about the film - most ironically, Brand's thoroughly…

Review of Dogtooth (2009)

By Simon Foster (434) for sbs.com.au (697) on 17 Apr 2011
