Movie Reviews

Trespass - 6/10 by Sarah WardThe incessant talk that continues from start to finish might just be the movie's strongpoint -- and given how clumsy and contrived it is, that's saying something.
Screen-Space - 4/10 by Simon FosterCarl Barron's brand of moody introspection and manufactured romance is unlikely to connect with old fans or win over many new ones.
Herald Sun (Australia) - 3/10 by Leigh PaatschNot so much a feature film as a therapy session where the star is acting as both patient and psychiatrist, Manny Lewis is a distinctly flat experience.
FILMINK (Australia) - 2/10 by Erin FreeManny Lewis is a bittersweet, utterly charming romantic comedy, and Carl Barron is a delight.
3AW - 1/10 by Jim SchembriAbsolutely terrible...Unfunny, aimless and largely pointless, you'd be better off listening to five minutes of any Carl Barron routine than submitting yourself to yet another Australian feature film that apparently had no audience in mind.
User Review - 8/10 by Glenn FExcellent little movie, those who are bagging this film are totally missing the point.
User Review - 6/10 by Sam HFor a comedy film, jokes seem to be few and far between. There also seems to be a lack of stakes here. The story is interesting enough to hold one's attention throughout, but never really becomes exciting. It has a couple of touching moments, though. On the whole, I'd say it's worth checking out if you're in the mood for something really simple.
User Review - 6/10 by Gavin PA decent Aussie romantic comedy, with Carl Barron basically playing a sadder version of himself. Some of the stand-up bits are identical to his actual shows, but it's a film about him finding love off-stage. It's nice, has a great soundtrack and a good cast, but nothing special or crazy happens.
User Review - 4/10 by F BI feel bad for not liking Manny Lewis more. I'm Australian, I enjoy Carl Barron and I thought a lot of the movie was sort of sweet. But there are just *so* many ridiculous leaps of coincidence to make the story stumble along, it brings you out of the film constantly, and to be honest, it's frequently uninteresting. Romantic Comedy is about as far from my interests as you can get though, so take that with a grain of salt.
User Review - 4/10 by Lee RComedian Carl Barron has written and starred in this film, which is his first film. The film follows a popular stand up comedian who has chronic depression. Kudos must be given to Barron for not just simply making a quirky comedy starring himself, playing himself.. And depression is well represented here, without over playing it. The film also looks at the invasion of privacy that the public think is acceptable when they see someone who is famous, leading to a very lonely feeling for the person who is famous. However, the problem with the film is that it is quite depressing, as personally, I don't find Barron to be all that funny, which doesn't help elevate the mood in the moments of standup that are placed throughout the film. Whilst Barron's acting is adequate, his very dry drawl and very short sentences don't make for a very dynamic character to carry the 80 minute movie, especially considering the lack of other characters in the film. The few characters who are there, are very under written. Leanna Walsman plays the love interest. We find out very little about her, except that she loves Brazil and she works as a phone sex worker (for which she 'has her reasons' but we never get any explanation of what those reasons are). We have Lewis' father, played by a miscast Roy Billing. Billing is far too pleasant in the role, and his character doesn't fit the abusive back story he is given. We also have Manny's friend and manager, whom we get very little story for, and who is either partying hard and being silly, or trying to be a father figure to Manny or to his son. The only other real character is a dog that Manny visits from time to time. Manny connects with the dog, who has an abusive owner, however, this plot goes nowhere, and including the very sad looking dog only managed to depress me further. The musical score is very absent, failing to add any feeling of movement that the film needed to help keep it moving forward. Whilst it has it's good points, the film fails to deliver either an entertaining story, nor a deep character study.
