Angels of Chaos

It's like an Australian Sons of Anarchy, with the fun, wit and quality scriptwriting sucked out it and replaced with various dirty looking meatheads grunting at each other. Every character sticks to the stereotype and the ending is the predictable "crime doesn't pay", even though most of the movie is trying to present the opposite.

*Warning, made with real bikers*

Very interesting film from this 2017 Tiff

Nice to see adventurous material like this at the festival and especially nice to have the writer/star at the screenings.

One of the truly innovative films that was also very worthwhile seeing. Low budget but made in the hometowns of the filmmakers.

Very pretty girl Abbey Lee, formerly Victoria's Secret cover girl, steals the show as a biker chic propelling her man into leadership of the gang (hence lady MacBeth).

6 is an good rating when compared to the truly masterful films at 2017 Tiff - I don't give 10s.

Sooooooo much potential, let down in the end. Character development in the beginning laid down real potential for a great story line. Which unfortunately never came to fruition. Several storylines now seeming pointless because they were never resolved, and the movie packed up and finished way to quickly. REALLY REALLY disappointing ending. Not specifically with the true ending (like the last 15 seconds) - but with the abrubt end to several main characters prior, which resulted (as mentioned before) in great storyline potential never coming to fruition via the need for a great conclusion.

Outlaws is the most forgettable A24 films I've seen so far. The acting is good, but that's really the best I can say. This film drags horribly, there isn't really that much of a plot, and it's not engaging. The editing and the general flow is bothersome and it's really just a chore to get through. The screenplay is just all over the place, it doesn't have much of a focus, and it's not really cohesive. I rate Outlaws a 2/10.

Probably one of the best Aussie films displaying acting talent by all leads in this highly character driven B-grade low budget film. Matt Nable, Abbey Lee and Simone Kessell played their characters great, but the stand-out performance for me was Josh McConville as Knuck's brother.

Director Stephen McCallum did a fine job in his first full length feature film. Actor Matt Nable's 2nd writing credit was a great story (aside from a few minor plot issues), but the screenplay certainly needed some tweaking, but still well done for his 2nd attempt. The 92 min length was perfect and the pace was on point.

There certainly was room for improvement in this production, but for a low budget film, it showed really well, and held my attention throughout the entire film.

A well deserved 8/10 from me.
