Review of Any Questions for Ben? (2012) by Ashley B — 01 Aug 2012

The potential was there but this movies fails deliver. The humor fell flat and the lead character Ben wasn't likeable, he felt like a try hard version of Hugh grant. Unengaging dross.

Good Aussie movie with great Aussie soundtrack…

Liked it ! Bit of a fizzer and missed the start but.. A non deep romantic adventure of very ...very shallow proportions…

One of those movies that through its insistence that you sympathise with the main character's existential crisis instead leaves you actively…

Good Australian Comedy. Got my facial muscles moving a plenty. Some time out for just Makiko & me…

The Working Dog writing group's collaboration feels so organic. This is searching, vulnerable, dramatic, comedy…

An alright Australian romcom, although it seems to be trying too hard to be funny and is very American-influenced…

Decent Aussie comedy. Overly reliant on banter rather than dialogue, and every other scene is a montage…

This is a very frustrating movie to rate. It starts off really well - snappy, quirky, some good laughs and good character development…

I have a question. OMG how cute is this film…

While the film does have its flaws story-wise, the killer dialogue with its uniquely Australian style of wit makes it a true joy to watch…
