Masterful Movie
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
... View MoreIf you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
... View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
... View MoreCompletely cringe-worthy. Very difficult to watch for more than a couple of minutes at a time. Some of the comedians involved have to be better than what the show produces. I cannot believe that they would watch an episode of the show and be proud that they were involved.Even the sketches chosen for ads on Foxtel are not at all funny or clever. They provide no motivation to watch the show and I would suggest Comedy Channel really suggest reviewing it.I would not recommend this show to anyone, young or old.

The Lord Of The Rings sketch featured on the ads says it all, a dim witted laborious set up for the punch line ' you cretin' is just sad. Magda in a hard hat isn't comedy gold, it's primary school dress up from a prop box. Holly Austin's creepy insurance sales assistant is funnier than this garbage and that says everything. A sketch about a current news story isn't biting satire just because a smirking reference is made to boat people and pay offs. Maybe it'd do the writers of this tripe some good if they watched some truly funny comedy like That Mitchell and Webb Look. Please, please, bury this rotting corpse as deep as it can go, otherwise it'll stink up our TV's for years to come.
... View MoreBack in the 80's and 90's this sort of satirical sketch comedy was all the rage. The group responsible for those by-gone shows were comedy heroes of the day. But this collection of predictable and most unfunny sketches is just not hitting the mark. I was expecting something new and fresh....not the tired (and should be retired) comedy format. I've tried to watch all the episodes but it is not that funny and even those very rare funny pieces....are rarer than fans of Tony Abbott.It's sad the Australian comedy is capable of producing new and funny concepts (e.g. Chris Lilley) but we push out this tired old comedy!!
... View MoreEver since the Mavis Bramston show, Australian comedy has faced a recurrent problem .. while our writers have some funny ideas, they don't have enough to fill 42 minutes of airtime.So the skits they write may have some genuinely funny lines .. but they .. just .. drag .. on .. too .. longgggggg.Episode one of Open Slather was a good example.Typical was the Gina Reinhart 'Definition of mine' skit. The use of the different meanings of the word 'Mine" was amusing - but then it wasn't amusing any more because the writers belaboured the point. 15 seconds? Funny. 30 seconds? Not so funny. More than a minute? Excruciatingly not so.On the other hand, the running gag about drug testing WAS funny - because each gag only lasted 10 seconds.I'll give them another couple of episodes, to see if they find their feet - but I can't give this a passing grade, based on the first outing.
