Review of Iris (2015)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

Review of Deathgasm (2015)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

[U]ltimately becomes a sad display of incessant bro comedy full of lazy writing. It mines for cheap giggles at gory sight-gags…

Review of The Diary of a Teenage Girl (2015)

By Dee Jefferson (1) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

Review of The Look of Silence (2014)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

It's absolutely devastating, as one would expect, but also a more appropriate elegiac than its predecessor…

Review of The Overnight (2015)

By Meg Watson (6) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

Review of Tyke Elephant Outlaw (2015)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

It's a striking film that can stand alongside Blackfish (2013) and Virunga (2014)…

Review of Tangerine (2015)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 19 Aug 2015

At once both a radically high-octane slice of ingenious guerrilla filmmaking and also wonderfully simple, Tangerine is like a bolt of electricity…

Review of Terminator Genisys (2015)

By Clem Bastow (48) for Junkee (216) on 13 Aug 2015

Genisys seems to have unwittingly positioned itself as Exhibit 'A' in the case against dimwitted alternate timeline reboots…

Review of Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief (2015)

By Matt Roden (6) for Junkee (216) on 13 Aug 2015
