Baba Kook - The Great Australian Letdown

Rating: 2/10 (21 November 2014)

It is not surprising to have another turkey of a feature film from a country which takes its jaundiced inspiration on movies from Hollywood. Except for one character of a little boy and his neighbour(hence the rating of 2) the movie is all a bit like the Australian wastelands : barren and lacking originality. That the movie has got a rating of 7 on IMDb itself is a travesty as the viewer is confronted with characters that you wouldn't care about, zero scares and a tiresome predictable story line like so many 'Australian' films. This review is not supposed to be a criticism about Australian films but you cannot help but try in vain to count any film from Down Under that ever made an impression, can you?
Verdict: Avoid like the plague even if you get to see it for free!
