Snowtown Movie

pointless info
1. one of the deceased had the same name as me
2. that same guy looked exactly like my best mate

Do you really share the same name? OMG. That is amazing!

Maybe they got the wrong guy?

yeah maybe they were after me and my mate (Now drop bear, this is sarcasm.... i dont really think they wanted to kill me and my mate. im just having a bit of a joke. maybe an emoticon might help )

I used to walk to my grandparent's place past the houses on Waterloo Corner which were demolished.

And to think of all the times I staggered past that joint blind as at all hours of the morning...

OMG. What is sarcasm? Next time I'll add more apostrophes for you too, big fella

I had a friend that lived next door to a girl who says she was the partner of Wagner .... who claimed to be planning to break him outta jail. High chance she was just some screwed up woman but never the less if there was any truth in even knowing him it woulda been enough to not make me sleep that well at night

Has the classic aussie feel to it as well. Should be good.

Peter Goers rated it. Don't know what to think about it now.

That's the only quote I noticed too!

He'll be asking kids about it during his kids quiz with his creepy heavy breathing and overly nasal chuckle.

Saw it last night.

Pretty underwhelming. Those expecting a companion piece to The Boys will be disappointed.

Basically the same story beat and emotional pitch bashes you over the head for two relentless hours.

One-note characters. Except for maybe Bunting, who just goes from varying shades of psycho. But even then, he's pretty much just a cold killing machine. Kinda like a human 'Bruce the Shark' from Jaws let loose on the northern suburbs.

Problem here is we never get any real motivation for the killings. Yeah, Bunting hates paedophiles. So does the vast majority of the population. Doesn't touch on his own abuse at all. The Barry Lane-Robert Wagner relationship is also ignored. Both would've added depth, complexity and motivation to a script crying out for some.

Of course, it wouldn't be an Australian film without a passive lead character and P.O.V. Vlassakis is the victim the whole way thorough the film. May be true in real life but up on the big screen that's just boring as batcrap.

Curiously, the film is also missing a third act. If you find it, please return to the filmmakers ASAP. Before tomorrow's national release.

First advance screening I've been to where the freeloaders didn't give the film a rapturous applause at the end...

Was there anything you liked about it?

[Drop Bear]

Just the end by the sound of it!

Technically, it's an accomplished film.

And the performances are good all-round - Daniel Henshell has local 'Best Actor' noms in the bag for Bunting.

But don't start me on the ending. That annoyed me more than anything...
