Movie Reviews

Sydney Morning Herald - 8/10 by Paul ByrnesIt's a big movie, despite its small circle of characters, and rewarding for adventurous viewers.
The Film Stage - 8/10 by Brian RoanIt's a minor story with minor ambitions, yet it manages to deliver a fully satisfying and moving experience.
Arizona Republic - 7/10 by Kerry LengelMuscled and ruggedly un-manscaped, Stapleton is an intimidating presence based on physicality alone, but the actor ratchets up the menace factor with a gripping portrayal of a man driven by emotions more complex than mere anger.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Robert AbeleIn one punchy way it's feverishly, genre-shakingly different. That difference makes the movie almost work. Almost.
The Guardian - 6/10 by Luke BuckmasterPerformances are uniformly impressive, with Stapleton guaranteed a place in the pantheon of creepily charismatic Australian screen criminals.
FILMINK (Australia) - 6/10 by Erin FreeArtfully shot by Simon Ford, with fine period detail from production designer, Josephine Ford, Cut Snake is technically top-notch, and emotionally uncompromising, as Ayres again strides into largely virgin territory for Australian cinema.
Glenn Dunks - 6/10 by Glenn DunksIn Tony Ayres' Cut Snake, the true blue Aussie crime flick gets a queer coat of paint. It masks itself as a standard crime flick, but subverts what we have come to expect from these films...
Urban Cinefile - 6/10 by Andrew L. UrbanA young crim out of jail, trying to go straight... hardly an original concept, but Blake Ayshford's screenplay gives it a novel twist and extra layers, while director Tony Ayres pushes for an edgy delivery
Herald Sun (Australia) - 5/10 by Leigh PaatschAn inconsistent film covering too much familiar ground, Cut Snake often gets distracted by the need to service an admittedly striking (though largely pointless) 1970s production design.
3AW - 5/10 by Jim SchembriA tough little crime drama full of muted anger, growled dialogue and whispered threats...Much as we applaud the achievements of filmmakers working on small budgets, you can't hand out free passes when those limitations hobble the flow and feel of a film.
