Swinging Safari

Born in 68 I just loved all the references and the effort that went into finding props and costumes. Seventies soundtrack the interspliced home movie parts. It was a riotous movie I didn't expect to get hooked into. Perhaps if you weren't there you won't get it. If you where there you'll want to watch it again to see what you missed first time round.

Having just seen Deadpool 2, which is such a letdown after the first one, I cannot understand how this is getting such bad reviews ... Its bright, colourful and laugh out loud funny ... If you grew up in a seaside community in the 70s its a must ... If you like 70s Australian cinema its a must ... If you like camp, daft as a brush comedies its a must ... Its not trying to be a masterpiece ... Its just a funny, but sharp, pastiche of cliched 70s Australia ... And gord did those cliches really exist ... Give it a go ... It made me laugh out loud ... A lot :)))

Off beat, nice pace, thoughly enjoyed it. The attention to detail was fantastic for the period. So many subtle period references. Sound track and editing was clever. It is different and refreshing.

Contagious, propulsive and fun love letter to 70s.

Simple yet brilliant accurate depiction of parenting/childhood during the 1970s. Any naysayers clearly were not brought up in this era. Wonderful fun, yet heartbreakly desperate teenage characters ground what could have been just a fluff piece. I could place every one of those characters into someone I knew from that era. The child actors were excellent. Hope to see a great deal more featuring Atticus Robb.
