Aaron Gocs' combo at THE LAST VIDEO STORE

Aaron Gocs, comedian and star of THE EMU WAR
A much-treasured star of the Australian comedy scene, Aaron Gocs is bloody electric on screen. Catch him and a bunch of your favourite Australian comedians in THE EMU WAR, screening all around Australia this weekend (FIND A CINEMA NEAR YOU HERE). The Emu War gave me some of the most fun I’ve ever had in the cinema. Huge and powerful grubby laughs. You have to see it.

Gocsy is one of Alexei’s oldest mates in comedy, so he knows the fellas taste damn well. Might actually nail the recommendation on this one.

The Emu War
★★★★★

Some of the most fun I’ve ever had in the cinema. Huge and powerful grubby laughs.

Dane and Gocsy need to make a hundred things together. Ads. Movies. Shows.

See this with a crowd and three beers deep.

★★★½

Exquisitely made and I do hope this movie becomes a tremendous success so they'll just be hundreds of hours of making of doco footage released.

★★★★½

Still a unique spin on the murder film infused w disarming observational comedy.

Point Break
★★★★½

Beautiful action cinema.

Reeled me in with the frantic claustrophobia of the foot chase.

Took my breath away with the first skydive.

Fell in love when the car got torched.

Melted on the last wave.


Also loved Garey Busey playing a Greek guy.

The Last Stop in Yuma County

Francis Galluppi directorial debut

A travelling knife salesman (Thunder Road’s Jim Cummings) is caught in a twist of fate when a pair of fleeing bank robbers storm a roadside diner after a routine stop. The diner’s patrons and staff are thrust into a perilous hostage scenario and, like a pot of hot bitter coffee, tensions brew as allegiances shift, drawn guns sway power and the bank heisters’ spoils await the last man standing.

With a simple premise, sharp-tongued dialogue, and an ensemble of beloved character actors as a cast of oddball locals, this directorial debut is a single-location crime thriller that delights at every tense turn.

Harkening back to an era of revisionist genre cinema like Reservoir Dogs, Fargo and Two Hands and slyly infused with fresh humour and nasty personality, The Last Stop in Yuma County is a genuine blast from a new filmmaker of immense promise.
