Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
View MoreIt is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
View MoreThe words: stupid, boring, senseless, and unfunny come to mind.I can find something positive to say about most movies, but this is the only movie I've ever walked out of in my 43 years of life.The problem is primarily with the script, but having Yahoo Serious telegraphing every (questionable) punchline doesn't help. Essentially, the entire movie revolves around this nut-bag splitting the beer atom. Assuming you can suspend belief in the periodic table, the entire script doggedly revolves around the impossible premise, which does nothing to enhance the unlikely and inane adventures of the thoroughly unlikable, obviously-deficient (but supposedly genius) slacker, Yahoo Serious, as he attempts to patent the discovery.If your IQ is higher than 50, do NOT see this movie.
View MoreI love this movie. Its just wonderful. I base my life on it. *sigh* Rockn' Roll MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give Me Some More ROCK'N ROLL MUSIC! OH YEAH! ROCKN' ROLL MUSIC!!!!!!! APPLES, HILA MONSTERS, GUTARS, ELECTRICELFIED VIOLINES! Weird HAIR CUTS, KANGAROOS, TASMANIAN TIGERS, AUSTRAILA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Good-nest do you think its long enough? all i wanted to say was that it was a great film. They don't like caps, they don't like exclamation points, everything has to be spelled right. I have the right to say what i want and not use proper English, ain't i right? So whats the weather like on planet Pluto?
View MoreThis was one of the first movies I ever saw at the cinema and I loved it. Yahoo Serious comes from the same suburb as me here in Newcastle, and this is one of his best roles. Plenty of slapstick and one-liners, it is a light and amusing film that suits any age.There's plenty of appearances from aussie personalities, ranging from musicians to comedians, as well as lots of local landmarks around newcastle and sydney. Keep an eye out for the "cat pie", a delicacy in the mental asylum in which the main character is placed.Beware: the movie is quite 'aussie', Brits and Yanks may have a hard time with some of it ;)
View MoreI saw this film when I was a teen living in Great Britain and for some really odd unexplainable reason, the soundtrack has still stuck with me. The song played during the credits, "Ice-House - Great Southern Land" is by far one of my all time favorite songs. I found the soundtrack on Amazon a few years back and i play it regulary. The film itself isn't the greatest but I do enjoy watching the "Journey to the Mainland", not just for the song but for the amazing camera work and scenery. Yahoo Serious' career never really took off and he's kinda like Carrot Top. You either love him or you hate him.
