This is a sweet, offbeat, and oddly credible look at youngish love.

A charming little indie film which isn’t going to be exactly everyone’s cup of tea but I think it’s worth seeking out if you like your comedies a little different...

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 16, 2022

A bitingly funny portrait of inadequacy and triumph, fueled by a poignancy all its own.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 24, 2020

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 17, 2011

As likeable as the movie was, I just didn't find it as funny as I thought I would.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 23, 2008

The strength of Eagle vs Shark lies in its unconventional story with unconventional leads.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 18, 2008

As stylistically and thematically quirky as one might've anticipated...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 11, 2008

Off-planet strangeness with a captivation factor.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 23, 2008

Romantic comedy about two lonely people who find each other while orbiting on the outer fringes of society reminded me of 'Napoleon Dynamite.'

| Original Score: B | Jan 15, 2008

...mostly tedious and depressing, its eighty-eight minutes going by in about eight hours.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jan 8, 2008

A hit and miss little film with a forced sense of eccentricity that falls flat, but is otherwise saved by hilarious one-liners...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Dec 24, 2007

A paean film to lonely misfits that follows along the same tracks as "Napoleon Dynamite," and relies entirely on being a charmer.

| Original Score: C- | Dec 21, 2007

Geek-love rom-com from New Zealand has bite.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 22, 2007

A romantic comedy where one of the participants treats the other like crap.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Sep 12, 2007

Coarse.

The genius of this film is the way it keeps us laughing at the eccentricities while also challenging us to find a positive way to move forward with our lives.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 17, 2007

If you're going to make fun of awkward chavs, even with the best will in the world, you have to avoid simply laughing at them.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 17, 2007

From the seemingly helpless geriatric who gets up to push his own wheelchair to the genial brother who constantly mimics movie stars, however, Taika Cohen's film seems nothing so much as Little Britain Down Under.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 17, 2007

The film wants to be your cuddly, quirky friend, and makes you feel bad for not returning the affection.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 17, 2007

Lead couple Lily (Loren Horsley) and Jarrod (Jemaine Clement) are such unoriginal, checklist misfits that there's little about them to celebrate or even stomach.
