Spin Out

I don't expect too much when decided to watch this movie. I just want to know some Australian's culture and when I notice that its about ute muster or we can say run around drive, I go for this one. Its good, its really works for me. A kind of subtle love story between two character who have been friend since childhood. I really love this movie, even though maybe someone will say that its just some cliché romance story where you can absolutely know what will happen in the end. I still really love it. The feel good flow, the cute side love story between Sparrow & Mary that is really fun to watch. We can say that its a fun lighthearted movie where you can smile on your own. Its nothing much but its not a waste of time. Don't let your love run.

It's a predictable and enjoyable flick, revolving around the (good) look and the (good) acting of its rising star, Xavier Samuel and his partners, Morgan Griffin in the first place.

Frames are full of sun, fresh and good feelings, beer and cars (utes…): as stated in the synopsis it requires a young heart to enjoy it but it's well made, with good care for details and a general good taste.

Even if you cannot refrain from asking yourself what is the point of drawing circles in the dirt with you car's wheels, its current rating on IMDb (4.5 at the time I'm writing) is too low (on my opinion).

It deserves a 6. And BTW, in case you never heard Dave Baxter's 'Love Love Love' before, I'm sure you'll love it, as i did.

'Spin Out' offers the audience a chance to sit back, relax and enjoy a fun ride as they witness a feel-good coming-of-age story. The film is littered with Australian themes and discourses that are common among some of the nation's most successful films - mateship, larrikinism, the Aussie battler, small country towns and the outback.

Everything in the film is solid without being exceptional. There are some nice performances from the leads, Xavier Samuel and Morgan Griffin, but the film truly belongs to supporting actor Travis Jeffery. He brings to the screen an admirable blend of humour and pathos that really becomes the connection between the audience and the story.

The co-direction of the film by Marc Gracie and Tim Ferguson works well and is rather cinematic considering their backgrounds in television. Ferguson and co-writer Edwina Exton seem to genuinely love their characters and have worked to blend an array of small country town figures and issues in an effective way to give the majority of supporting players a chance to shine.

I think the film is best summed up by another reviewer that stated it is 'sweet but parochial'. It is a generally fun, if slightly flawed, film that I really enjoyed watching. Sometimes movies should be just about having a good time with good characters and this is one of them.

Loud and colourful are not quite enough in this very unsubtle rom-com set amongst exuberant car-mad country youths at an annual Bachelor and Spinster's weekend of fancy car stunts, hard drinking, hard dancing, hard practical joking and dreams of sex in a noisy group setting. The main young couple try every stupid rom-com ploy to pretend they won't get together and just remain best mates, but we all know they'll get together in the end.

Similar in tone to Weekend At Bernie's, this film does at least celebrate the Australian rural landscape, and a bit of rural culture, but it's all a bit OTT for me.

This movie makes me feel good. The soundtrack is the best, and Morgan Griffin is such a cute actress that is romantic. I haven't seen this in cinemas, This is one of the best Australian Comedy of all.
