Funny Lady (1975)
51%
1.5/5
“Streisand took Fanny from a relatable underdog to a hideous caricature. Funny Lady not only fails as a sequel but as a standalone film; fans of Barbra and musicals should avoid like the plague.” –

92%
4/5
“Ultimately grimy, both in subject matter and visually, thanks to set designers Jim Clay and Geoffrey Kirkland), the picture is frightening and powerful.” –

“Ginger and Rosa is a small flick that reminds audiences how exciting it is to see raw and sincere performances despite what kind of package they're delivered in” –

The Missing Picture (2013)
99%
4.5/5
“The Missing Picture is a haunting and sobering documentary that not only mesmerises with its narrative but also impresses with its collage of techniques that merge seamlessly to give us something truly unique on screen.” –

Divergent (2014)
41%
3.5/5
“Tris is no Katniss Everdeen, and Divergent is a better film for not trying to impersonate a similar trilogy. It won't excite the world to the extent of The Hunger Games but this more humble offering is nevertheless exciting, fun and satisfying.” –

Batman Begins (2005)
85%
4/5
“It's a refreshing approach to the genre, even when revisiting years later, in an era inundated with superhero movies where each tries to better the last's visual effects budget.” –

3.5/5
“The movie stands out for all of the right reasons. It's a breath of fresh air, especially within the Australian industry, and not just because of its unique approach to shooting.” –

The Bourne Identity (2002)
84%
3.5/5
“Whether you consider it a smart thriller or a paint-by-numbers spy caper, The Bourne Identity is a dynamic interpretation of Robert Ludlum's bestselling novel.” –

A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014)
33%
3/5
“There's no depth to what you see on screen here: MacFarlane is simply doing what he does best; delivering cheap laughs as he continues to try and push the boundaries.” –

Grace of Monaco (2014)
9%
1.5/5
“The picture anesthetises you into boredom with its inflated sense of purpose, missing an opportunity, whether as a biopic or an artistic drama, to both honour Kelly's memory and entertain modern audiences.” –

The Pirate Fairy (2014)
81%
4.5/5
“At its core, underneath the swashbuckling adventure, Tinker Bell and the Pirate Fairy is a thoughtful tale of female friendship, of appreciating individuality, opening one's mind to new possibilities and always believing in second chances.” –

3.5/5
“A tale of innocence and companionship that is thankfully nowhere near as traumatic as Old Yeller.” –

To Sir, With Love (1967)
90%
4/5
“Sentimental reflections on an inspirational teacher are often the makings of weak dishwater films, but in James Clavell's To Sir, with Love, a strong cast and an unforgettable title song make this an undeniable classic.” –
