Brand New Testament, The (2015): REALLY REALLY CUTE
Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016): Very stylised, all the characters are caricatures.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
Good, the Bad, the Weird, The (2008): A lot of parallels with the Blues Brothers, except Korean, and a western. Lots of slapstick & goofiness.
Computer Chess (2013): THIS IS GENIUS every programmer needs to watch it. Guaranteed it'll feel too famiiar
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015): I was expecting another hipster movie, and it is, but it's also very funny and cute
Lemmy (2010): Some interesting stories from Lemmy himself, but all the other rock/metal heavyweights just seemed to be there to blow smoke up his arse
SPL (Sha Po Lang) (2005): Couldn't get into this. Muddy exposition & it took a long time to get to any fighting.
Do I Sound Gay? (2014): Interesting "personal journey" doco, was light on the hard science but I think that's because there isn't any.
Tooth Fairy (2010): Sticks to the formula. See The Rock in a tutu tho
Off The Charts - The Song-Poem Story (2003): Interesting doco, but the song poems themselves are awful, so sometimes it was a bit hard going.
