Movie Reviews

ABC Radio (Australia) - 7/10 by CJ JohnsonSails breezily along with terrific dialogue, great performances and an extremely relatable story. It's excellent contemporary entertainment, the kind of character and situation-based comedy the French do so well but Australian cinema, not so much.
FILMINK (Australia) - 6/10 by Cara NashIt's an entertaining trip, but one that's also thought provoking and appropriately sobering.
Sydney Morning Herald - 5/10 by Jake WilsonAs a writer and actor, Cowell is obviously talented if erratic; as a filmmaker he has a long way to go.
Rip It Up - 2/10 by David 'Mad Dog' BradleyCowell makes his feature film début as writer/director/producer, bringing it to the screen with Patrick Brammall in terrific, tormented form as our titular 'hero'.
User Review - 10/10 by Roger DWonderful expose of the struggle with alcohol. Highly recommended for mature audience.
User Review - 10/10 by Simon CBrilliant movie, Brendan Cowall has done a wonderful job in writing directing and starring in this great depiction of Australia and their attitude towards alcohol
User Review - 10/10 by Harry WFabulous funny Australian comedy. There's a powerful social commentary rolled up in the kookiness and fun. We need more Aussie films like this one.
User Review - 8/10 by Wayne MThis is a very Australian film - well shot and edited, shows some beautiful Sydney scenes too. The story is engaging and thought-provoking - without any moral or answers, just a commentary of how hard it is to not drink in this culture, how out of touch with reality some industries are, and how new age "answers" do not really answer anything. Worth watching.
User Review - 6/10 by Meredith WLife is good for ad man Ruben Guthrie (Patrick Brammall) - he leads a party boy lifestyle, has a model fiancée and lives in a house on the water. But he is an alcoholic and so his fiancée Zoya (Abbey Lee) leaves him with instruction that if he can be sober for a year, she'll give him another chance. Despite his hedonistic lifestyle it is easy to sympathise with Ruben given how his progress is hampered by friends, colleagues and even his family. And in this, the comedy makes some important comments on mateship and male interaction, as well as Australia's drinking culture, without being overly preachy. As both first film and stage adaptation, this work from Brendan Cowell, stands up, thanks to its backing from Destination NSW (the waterside Sydney shots are glorious). Alex Dimitriades is a real highlight, as Ruben's hard-living gay friend from uni days.
