Was really hoping for a good wholesome laugh but alas I fell asleep about one third the way through. To be fair the actors are a good sort but the script just fell short for me. There is also my deep longing desire to see a Kenny 2 which is no doubt also biased my critique. Sorry Shane but a 2 outa 10 from me.
This is not a movie that is going to stress you intellectually. It's a bit of light-hearted and unpretentious Australian fun. The characters are a bit cookie cut and some of the acting is not Oscar award stuff but it does poke a bit of fun at a national passion and some of the pretentiousness of food preparations in today's super chef world. I didn't go expecting much but I enjoyed it for what it was. I think some of the critics who panned it were over-reading the point of the movie. That said I didn't appreciate the blatant advertising of stores and products in it though I recognise this is par for the course in many movies today.
The BBQIs this a good movie? Not a chance. Did I enjoy this movie? Bloody Oath I did. It's a redemption story. Daz who poisons the neighbourhood has to redeem himself and win his family back along the way. Full of puns, corny jokes and bad accents. 6.5/10 #NicksMiniReview
I watched the BBQ today and thought that it was a very funny movie , along with the Castle.
