"Norwegian Wood" review

To be bluntly honest, this is the worst movie I saw throughout the weekend, being confusing and somewhat difficult to follow at times with a severely baffling plot and lack of story. The actual camerawork was fantastic but apart from that I can't say anything else positive. 2/5 stars.

"Tabloid" review

Watching documentaries following celebrities is not always my cup of tea, but Tabloid struck me as being very well written and very well presented, with the most striking aspect being the way in which things were repeated in large lettering briefly, to me this technique highlights important events and notes. 3.5/5 stars.

"Melancholia" review

The very idea of a large planet striking the Earth to many is absurd, but always possible. This concept gave many a person chilling thoughts after watching Melancholia, myself included. The inevitability of it all is something we would have to accept, rather than panicking about it as Claire did in part 2.

The first 10 minutes or so of this movie is somewhat confusing, with a huge montage of slow motion shots basically showing us how the movie unfolds and what is to be expected should this event ever occur. Personally, I found part 1 to be mildly boring for the most part with the wedding dragging out longer than necessary. The end of part 1 and the entirety of part 2 was absolutely brilliant, 4/5 stars.

"Toomelah" review

Out of all the movies viewed this weekend this is the one that impacted me most, simply because I know very little about the Aboriginal community. It is an extremely well made movie considering there was only one professional actor. The insight this has given me as to what can actually happen in the Missions around Australia is indescribable. I give this movie a personal score of 4.5/5 stars.

"The Women on the 6th Floor" review

"The Women on the 6th Floor" in my opinion is a very well done movie, with an easy to follow plotline with various twists here and there. It is a movie about 6 maids who work for a very rich couple, the husband of said couple being a very successful businessman who eventually falls in love with one of the maids, Maria Gonzales (Natalie Verbeke). Maria, after a short service with the couple, moves to Italy after discovering the location of her long lost son, Miguel (Ivan Martin Salan).
