Film Reviews by Moonpie

Mesmerising and touching, no doubt the director wanted us to see just how bleak and frustrating life can become down on the farm. I was aware of the high suicide rate amongst our farming community and for once didn't feel the need to utter 'poor bl**dy farmers!'

Knee high in poop!

I saw the trailer, I read some reviews and was so glad that I didn't fall for the negative "dross", "paint drying", "boring" comments. This film was a joy to watch and will no doubt be talked about for years in my circle. The performances were brilliant and the timing superb. After all, "life is what happens when we're busy doing something else." If tittering is what you're looking for, stick to carry on. Toni Erdmann will not even register.

I don't think there is any other way to describe this film other than it being a worthwhile Oscar winner. The story and direction where reflected by the brilliant cast and I was surprised at just how many hours of value my wife and I had reflecting on the individual situations and performances.

An excellent film
