Visually incredibly but spent way too much time on the set up for the next movie that the plot in this felt drawn out
Teetering on enjoyable for me. Visually very fun and the dogs throughout were great, but I found myself resisting this female Joker for some reason
This place was a food highlight of Hobart. It’s a very small venue, and more than likely you will be sharing a table with others or seated somewhere that is frankly, awkward. Yet somehow, the food more than makes up for this. Understated, but clean, bright and tasty. I also think for what you’re getting, […]
Incredible. If it wasn’t for the noisy Americans sitting next to me, I would have been a sobbing mess in my seat. Literally was crying during this concert
Absolutely no doubt, Vue de Monde is the best degustation restaurant I have ever been to. Twelve courses that play with flavours, textures and presentation over two and a half hours, in a glittering venue, 55 floors above Melbourne. Arriving at the Rialto towers, you travel in an elevator that shoots up like a rocket, […]
Sounded perfect but somehow and ironically bloodless? Still really enjoyed myself
A weird comic book in a nostalgic Japanese / Astro Boy / Kimba style. Violent and sexually perverse. Seems very 90s shocking
A shapeless book of platitudes. Beautiful cliches that I guess are important to remember
Only the first two thirds were enjoyable. The last third was awful and wrecked the entire novel Published: 2015 Completed: 21/05/2023 Pages: 306 This sci-fi novel by Margaret Atwood is a bleak and misanthropic account of a desperately destitute couple who give up their freedoms in exchange for the anodyne comfort of the gated community […]
Fluff. Entertaining enough but the characters were too annoying for me to even consider ever wanting to watch this again
Visually so pretty but everything else (story, music, casting, voices) about the movie sucked
Can appreciate that this was very ground breaking at the time of release, but this lacks vitality that would make this interesting to listen to now
Highly enjoyable visually spectacular movie. Very easy watching
Campy, light and gory movie. Not much substance but was inoffensive and enjoyable watching Nicholas Cage hamming it up as Dracula
So glad he is producing music again – a partial return to form
Anodyne and sleepy. The lyrics are kinda silly and the instrumentation does very little to mask this fact. Urgh
A repeated watching after many years, vaguely remembering the twist, means that a lot of the foreshadowing is very clever. However…just didn’t seem as amazing to me this time around
Expertly crafted slasher flick. Not something I would see willingly but I can appreciate the craft that went into making it
The use of “them/they/their” for the gender less main character was grating. Novel was otherwise pleasant and easy to read
Very nearly considered purchasing this book club novel. A lovely perambulation through the romantic relationship memories between two writers Published: 2017 Completed: 10/04/2023 Pages: 291 This book is a non fiction account of Bill Hayes’ relationship with the city of New York and his partner, the renowned Oliver Sacks. I really enjoyed this book. Reading […]
Despite not knowing anything except “Mr Jones” this was a very enjoyable gig. Lead singer was highly expressive and the band was very engaging. Overall a very accomplished set. The poetry and talent really shone through
Did not finish. Inoffensive enough – just did not capture my interest
So much style and cool. Very fun to watch and very well put together
An interesting enough anime that would have been spectacular at the time of its release. However I have no nostalgia attached to this and subsequently, the movie has diminished impact on me
Probably the first Gorillaz album I’ve enjoyed in a while. First two thirds is great, the last third not so much
Cute and great to watch with the earnest reactions of the mostly young audience. However I’m glad I didn’t pay for this
I think the only good episode in this series was the gay one. Also the ending – while true to the game – sucked
A great show; suitably quirky and spectacular. Even songs I didn’t really like were enjoyable live
Every element of this play was excellently executed but in excess. If the production and story could have been simplified it would have been a lot more enjoyable. Instead this felt like being pelted with bricks for two hours
Watched when Pepper escaped from the yard, adding to the harrowing feeling. Like a modern relentless suburban and personal take on 2001 Space Odyssey
An inventive and fun interactive play with strangers contributing to the majority of the show’s execution https://adelaidefringe.com.au/fringetix/electric-dreams-work-txt-af2023
Very modern funky and innovative staging. A predictable but still enjoyable young adult theatre experience
Enjoyable and aggressively ruddy show. Great translation of the live show with some very good contestants https://adelaidefringe.com.au/fringetix/hard-quiz-live-hosted-by-tom-gleeson-af2023
Exhausting authoritative bombastic show with 10,000% energy. A two hour show with multiple costume changes, burlesque shows, incredible music and audience participation. Left feeling spent
A plainly written, colourless romance novel Published: 2020 Completed: 2023/02/28 Pages: 371 A very straight forward and easy to read novel about two women – Ashley and Nikki – and their relationships with each other, their children and respective partners. Despite a plot that was obvious from the very beginning, there is some enjoyment in […]
Enjoyable and intimate show with some genuinely funny moments. Only bad thing was that it was probably over rehearsed and had zero audience interaction https://adelaidefringe.com.au/fringetix/andrew-hansen-is-cheap-af2023
Good set by Bad Religion, but found support and headliners a bit samey
Really enjoyed this movie. At times it felt like a very conscious oblique intellectual exercise but after the first half an hour, opened into an intriguing multi dimensional world that allowed for lots of interesting analytical possibilities. Still mulling over it a few days after
Enjoyable and relatable but kinda background music. Possibly because I was work stressing
I don’t play many games, but this was so beautiful in its visual design. I loved the premise of playing as a cat and felt invested in the world that was built
Technically well shot, acted and produced. Unfortunately the story itself was predictable drivel
I am tired of depictions of violence against women. As well produced as this movie is, I didn’t see the point. Not sure it sheds any new light on mental illness or that there was any character development during the course of the movie
Beautiful animated movie of the tragedy affecting Afghanistan.
Actually terrible. There probably was a good movie in there somewhere, at some point, but what made it to the screen was drawn out and unfinished. Full of plot holes and annoyingly dumb. Unfortunately Australian
An incredible movie that still holds up after all this time – possibly strong nostalgia effect
Absolutely not the sort of novel I would normally read. It was gruesomely violent but very suspenseful and exceedingly well paced. Let down by stereotypical characterisations Published: 2020 Completed: 2023/01/04 Pages: 482 Absolutely not the sort of book I would normally read. Having said that, it was exceedingly well constructed with superb pacing and plot. […]
