By itstinks (681 reviews) from North of Reading , 28 Nov 2011Do they not get enough foreign films in Oz that this mish-mash of styles seems to be well thought of ?
It belatedly takes on the surealism of the films from the 60's by such as Lindsay Anderson although it does seem to be a precursor to the Spike Jonze style of metafilm storytelling.
There are some ok parts but they are submerged by the over-indulgence of tricks and quirks for their own sake.- Was this review helpful to you?

By hammer99 (28 reviews) from Chelmsford , 15 Mar 2011This is one of my all-time favourites. Some American friends introduced it to me back in the mid-80s and I became hooked. I've seen it umpteen times (including in London, where a healthy number of people walked-out in disgust) and its intoxicating blend of realism, idealism, fantasy, huge slices of bad-taste and - ultimately - optimism, make it essential viewing for the discerning film lover. Based on the Peter Carey book of the same name.- Was this review helpful to you?
