Review of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (2014)

By Simon Foster (434) for FILMINK (Australia) (1,405) on 04 Dec 2014

Review of Finding Vivian Maier (2014)

By Simon Foster (434) for FILMINK (Australia) (1,405) on 04 Nov 2014

Review of Before I Go to Sleep (2014)

By Simon Foster (434) for FILMINK (Australia) (1,405) on 13 Oct 2014

No front-loading of Oscar-worthy talent or uttering that over-used adjective, Hitchcockian, can disguise the fact that Rowan Joffe's daft thriller,…

Review of Housebound (2000)

By Simon Foster (434) for Screen-Space (209) on 01 Sep 2014

Exhibiting a bold visual style and a natural flair for funny, character-driven dialogue, the New Zealander has delivered a giggly, gory romp…

Review of Predestination (2013)

By Simon Foster (434) for FILMINK (Australia) (1,405) on 25 Aug 2014

Review of Wetlands (2013)

Review of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

By Simon Foster (434) for Screen-Space (209) on 23 Jul 2014

Review of Willow Creek (2013)

By Simon Foster (434) for Screen-Space (209) on 12 Jul 2014
