Leave your thoughts about Any Questions for Ben?.
| The MercuryTim MartainWhile the film does have its flaws story-wise, the killer dialogue with its uniquely Australian style of wit makes it a true joy to watch. |
| 2UE That Movie ShowBlake HowardThe Working Dog writing group's collaboration feels so organic. This is searching, vulnerable, dramatic, comedy. |
| Matt's Movie ReviewsMatthew PejkovicAlthough this third film from the Working Dog team is their weakest, Any Questions for Ben? is still a funny and insightful look into Gen X pressures in an increasingly fast paced world. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Jenny CasablancasThe talented bunch of actors ably cut through the surface gloss, but it's tough to remain invested in the plight of the self-absorbed lead. |
| Sydney Morning HeraldSandra HallThe whole thing made me nostalgic for Working Dog's sharper days when they would surely have perpetrated all sorts of wickedness at Ben's expense. |
| TrespassGlenn DunksIt's slight and rarely laugh out loud funny-pleasant and occasionally chucklesome is an apt way to describe its loose style-but in the end I found myself smiling along to the proceedings, so I guess that's a win. |
| QuickflixSimon MiraudoEven though Any Questions for Ben never really produces any unique answers to make it a revelatory rom-com, it has an easy, low-stakes charm, and is buoyed by its very talented cast of performers. |
| At the Movies (Australia)Margaret PomeranzThe problem with the film, apart from it being only sporadically funny, is the character of Ben himself, there's too little development and a lot of repetition. But there's a lot to enjoy here. |
| MovieTime, ABC Radio NationalJulie RiggAny Questions for Ben? is watchable enough. But it could have been so much more. |
| Herald Sun (Australia)Leigh PaatschI sense that others who similarly fell hard for the soulful sincerity of The Castle and The Dish will feel a little quizzical about the comparative slickness of Any Questions for Ben? |
