A celebratory film made by those who hold the place close to their heart.
What once caused a storm of controversy is now pretty tame, mundane even.
Murderball doesn’t want you to feel sorry for anyone. It wants the viewer to see them for who they are, not what they aren’t. They’re athletes with the same drive and passion for their sport as other athletes.
Although charming at times, My Date With Drew comes across as more than a little bit creepy given the present context of celebrity stalkers – not to mention the sight of a middle-aged man fawning over the portrait of a young child.
A sad portrait of one man’s obsession with becoming someone he is not. Or is Flyerman the real Mark Vistorino? Either or, this is one legitimately tormented soul.

Brown lays the sentimentality on so much that it almost brings the whole production down. Luckily there’s lots of tremendous shots and a solid story to keep it going.
Sometimes the simplest conflicts are the best ones…The result is a film that packs more emotion than anything I have seen in at least a couple of years.
Like Nomi’s work, there is some distinct style at play that reflects its subject matter.
Avoids political views and is instead a tribute to the John and Jane Smiths of the American military risking their lives for an ideal rather than a clear goal.
Red Trousers pays tribute to one country’s stuntmen. At the same time it’s a personal tribute as Shou uses the film as a platform to showcase his own work.
