The Crocodile Hunter (DVD)

The Crocodile Hunter is going to go down as the very worst movie to make the cinema screens this year. I'm not usually brave enough to make claims like that but this is such a bizarre concept and such an appaulingly crafted movie that I really don't feel like I'm going out on any kind of limb by saying that at all! Umm, that is unless Quentin Tarrantino is thinking of sneaking a live action remake of Bambi unannounced on us of course... Now, in saying that, it doesn't mean that I didn't *like* the movie myself, because I am rather partial to complete trash on the movie screen just so long as it is entertaining trash and you can never say ...  Read the complete review

A satellite has crashed into North Queensland on Brozzie Drewitt's (Magda Szubanski)land. This is no ordinary satellite, it contains a tracking drone that contains loads of data on millions of people in it, if it falls into the wrong hands the balance of power in the world could change completely.

He's also an aussie who's traditional with all the aussie slang, but above all that he's actually very informative and makes me want to ...  Read the complete review

I like Steve Irwin. He's totally over the top - but I like him. He DOES know what he's doing - but after while the fact that he keeps stressing the fact that he's had 30 years experience can be a bit grating, as can the him telling us he learned it all from his father. But my children love him, and were desperate to go and see this film. They loved it, but from an adult perspective it was really quite dire. I enjoyed the parts where Steve and his wife Terri were catching and explaining about the various wild creatures they found, and when Steve was trying to catch the rogue croc it was really quite scary in parts! (I screamed!) But the storyline ...  Read the complete review
