Hey everyone! With cinemas closed for a short time in Australia, it's a rare chance for me to take a break from seeing and critiquing films. I'm therefore putting my website "on ice" until new release moves arrive again in early July (I am missing my beloved movie popcorn).

If you're looking for something to stream, you can always look through my annual best of the year lists (click here) or go through my detailed archives (click here). Hopefully you can find some great films to revisit or watch for the first time.

I'm still on air every Thursday morning at 6:40am on ABC Brisbane radio.  Instead of reviewing new cinema released, I'm focusing on my favourites over the past 25 years which people can stream or buy.  If you've missed any of the segments, here are the films I've mentioned:
