To me, this movie is perfection.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I went to the video store and rented the according to IMDb's 7 out of 10 ranking "Snowpiercer". Went home, put it on and ended up fast forwarding the movie, ripping it out of the DVD player at 1 hour into the movie and driving back to the video store. As I threw it in the face of the clerk, I yelled: "Give me another one!!". And glad I am that he gave me this.This is not a high octane fueled movie. This movie runs on diesel, and diesel is good. It is a slower burning fuel, but cranks out much more torque. Good acting of the cast, a good plot and good shooting of the movie.I like Aussie movies! Cheers mate

Review: I stupidly thought that this was going to be an action movie about cops taken out the bad guys, but it turned out to be a slow drama about a highly decorated cop who has a drink with his colleagues after a successful bust, and on the way home he mistakenly clips a bike rider with his wing mirror which causes innocent young kid to crash to the floor. He then calls the paramedics because the accident looks pretty serious and the head of the investigating team decides to cover up the fatal accident and put it down to the officer finding the kid on the floor. The movie is extremely slow and it seemed to be going round and round in circles. The officer who caused the accident wanted to admit the whole accident right from the beginning so the movie seemed a bit pointless. Its all about the officers guilt and how he deals with the fact that he put this little kid in critical condition. Although it's a deep drama that deals with an emotional subject matter, I personally found it pretty boring and nothing really happens for ages. It started of quite promising, with the edgy shootout, but then it goes dramatically downhill after the accident happens. Anyway, it could have been much better if they added a bit of action but the director chose to keep it as straight drama which was a bad choice from my point of view. Disappointing!Round-Up: I'm usually a fan of Joel Eggerton, who was great in Animal Kingdom and the Great Gatsby, but his performance in this movie was average. I think that the fault has to be with the director who didn't allow him to go deep into the tricky situation. Jai Courtney, who was terrible in A Good Day To Die Hard and Divergent, hasn't really been that impressive in his roles yet, but he still has some time to shine at the young age of 28. Tom Wilkinson on the other hand has been getting a lot of work lately and he always put in a great performance. At the age of 67 and with big movies like Batman Begins, The Grand Budapest Hotel and his emotional performance in Michael Clayton, I doubt that this small movie will hurt his reputation and in my personal opinion, he was the best thing in this film. Anyway, the whole movie was based in Australia and I'm certain that the money that was backing the movie came from Australia so maybe that's why they didn't try to make it into a big crime thriller like the Hollywood distributors would have.I recommend this movie to people who are into their deep dramas about a cop who causes an accident after a drink with his work colleagues and has to deal with the guilt when the crime is covered up. 3/10

It is a very good movie, the story line is very well thought out and is very good, but the movie goes very slowly it would be an excellent movie if it went a bit faster.The actors who are in it a very good. the director did a very good job just needs to make the movie move a bit faster.and since I am from Australia I am glad to see that the Australian movie empire moving along good job film Australia.There where some filming mistakes but that doesn't matter it still was a very good film. very well done Jai Courtney I loved you in divergent and I loved you in this!

A tightly wound crime drama that oozes class, this Sydney-set motion picture follows on from These Final Hours and Predestination to continue the stellar run for Australian movies in 2014. With an intelligent and slow burning screenplay by Joel Edgerton, Felony deals with one morally murky question: what price should a good person pay for making one bad mistake? Those hoping for a whodunit will be disappointed; the tension is built through a very precise pace and layered character development rather than a complex plot or shock-factor twists and turns. That the characters are so intriguing and engrossing can be equally attributed to the splendid actors on show. Edgerton leads the way as the respected detective, family man and all round top bloke who is forced to deal with a personally complicated situation, and he delivers an almighty performance with nuance and gravitas. He's not the only one though: Jai Courtney takes a break from hard-arse supporting gigs (Jack Reacher, A Good Day to Die Hard) to bring heft and subtlety to his new cop on the block role, whilst veteran Tom Wilkinson relishes his chance to portray the experienced department head who has misplaced old-school values. A special mention also needs to go out to Bryony Marks, whose moody score is utterly sensational and brings emotion all on its own. Due to a limited release it's unlikely you will be able to catch this on the big screen, but to the top of you 'to see' DVD list this should go.
