Review of My Scientology Movie (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 08 Sep 2016

Review of Blood Father (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 31 Aug 2016

As entertainment, Blood Father is superior to many in its genre - and at less than 90 minutes, it's over before there's much time to consider…

Review of Don't Breathe (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 30 Aug 2016

This is one for horror diehards -- well-engineered, but not on a par with Jeremy Saulnier's grimy Green Room or Dan Trachtenberg's zany…

Review of Ben-Hur (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 24 Aug 2016

Like so many remakes, this one never answers the basic question of why this story was worth retelling in the first place…

Review of David Brent: Life on the Road (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 24 Aug 2016

In the absence of a plot, what remains is a series of repetitive scenes where he makes a fool of himself, unimaginatively staged with no real…

Review of Tickled (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 24 Aug 2016

It would be unfair to spoil the surprises in David Farrier and Dylan Reeve's investigative documentary Tickled, but the premise should be enough…

Review of High-Rise (2015)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 16 Aug 2016

Collet-Serra seems as transfixed by the landscape as he is by Lively's presence, suggesting a continuity between humanity and the natural world…

Review of Sausage Party (2016)

Review of Jason Bourne (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 27 Jul 2016

Review of Dough (2015)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 27 Jul 2016

Give or take a handful of clumsy topical references, this is a film that could well have been made in the 1970s or '80s…

Review of Lights Out (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 19 Jul 2016

Lights Out would be a modest triumph if not for one near-fatal flaw, which it shares with much modern horror: the overblown, schlocky sound…

Review of Goldstone (2016)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 06 Jul 2016
