Review of The Castle (1997) by Johnny L — 13 Jun 2013
A truly brilliant film that details one mans fight to save his home from a compulsory purchase order so the next-door airport can be extended. Full of magnificent one liners and an exceptional script this really is a laugh-out-loud romp from start to finish.
The characters are beautifully drawn, perfectly realised and exceptionally played and it has a wonderful lo-fi direction that really adds to it's charm. The superb Charles 'Bud' Tingwell adds class to a great cast that really draw you into a story that, in many different formats, has been told before.
An absolute classic and don't tell me I'm dreamin'.
