Introducing '#ReelLove' — our brand new interview series! @connordalton.bsky.social chats with filmmaker Anoop Lokkur to discuss the two films that changed everything for him, including one that left him needing a walk during the COVID-19 lockdown just to process it. #ReelLove #FilmLovers #Cinema

SWITCH and I have partnered up for REEL LOVE, a new short-form video series. For it, I’ll be sitting down with members of the entertainment industry to hear about the films they love most and how they inspire them to this day. Our first episode with director Anoop Lokkur is now live!

I had such a great time reviewing this impressive two-disc release of the bizarre 1980 adventure film? Cold War thriller? Titanic fan-fic? RAISE THE TITANIC from @imprintfilms.bsky.social. As a long-time Titanic nut, I found it so fascinating. Check out my ★★★ review at @maketheswitchau.bsky.social

#HughJackman is stellar & the cinematography is flawless — but '#TheDeathOfRobinHood' never commits to any one idea. A gory, visually stunning 'Logan'-esque revisionist take that's more interesting in concept than execution. Our @sydfilmfest.bsky.social review…

Spielberg's 35th film is a breathtaking, deeply personal plea for empathy — and Emily Blunt delivers perhaps the best work of her career. '#DisclosureDay' is extraordinary. It's never about the aliens. It's always about us. Our ★★★★½ review… https://swtc.au/disclosureday #FilmReview #Spielberg

My ★★★★½ review of DISCLOSURE DAY, Steven Spielberg’s magnificent return to exploring the potential impact of our first contact with extraterrestrial life, made with furious energy, startling immediacy and immense heart. Check out my review at @maketheswitchau.bsky.social.

Nicholas Galitzine has perfect himbo energy, and Jared Leto as Skeletor is genuinely remarkable casting — but '#MastersOfTheUniverse' is let down by a bloated runtime. Fun when it leans into the camp, less so when it doesn't. Our review… https://swtc.au/mastersoftheuniverse #FilmReview #Action

Four girls, one farmhouse, a century of history. '#SoundOfFalling' is a haunting German drama spanning two world wars and a divided nation. We're giving away five double passes thanks to Transmission Films! Enter here… https://swtc.au/soundoffalling #Giveaway #GermanFilm

Go in knowing as little as possible. '#Backrooms' is the horror A24 & Kane Parsons — their youngest-ever feature director — have quietly delivered something genuinely unfamiliar. Chiwetel Ejiofor & Renate Reinsve are magnificent. ★★★★½ Our review… https://swtc.au/backrooms #FilmReview #Horror #A24

Jodie Foster is a wonderful make-do sleuth in '#ViePrivee' — but the script meanders through so many genres it ends up right back where it started. A frustrating misfire with a cast that deserved better material. Our review… https://swtc.au/vieprivee #FilmReview #FrenchFilm

Paul Rudd & Nick Jonas star in '#PowerBallad' — a feel-good #musical #comedy from the director of 'Once' and 'Sing Street', about a wedding band frontman fighting for recognition after his impromptu jam goes global. We're giving away double passes! Enter now…

Equal parts nasty, hilarious & emotionally intelligent, '#Obsession' is one of the most confident debut features in years — and Inde Navarrette delivers one of the #horror performances of the decade. Be careful what you wish for. ★★★★ Our #FantasticFilmFestival review…

Be careful what you wish for. '#Obsession' follows a hopeless romantic whose novelty one-wish toy grants his deepest desire — with darkly compelling consequences. We're giving away five double passes to see it in cinemas! Enter now… https://swtc.au/obsession #Giveaway #Horror

OUT TODAY: Karl Urban is a blast as Johnny Cage, and the action in '#MortalKombat2' is some of the year's best — but the plot still gets in the way. A Flawless Victory for fans, a Fatality for the uninitiated. Our ★★★ review… https://swtc.au/mortalkombat2 #FilmReview #ActionFilm

Dolph Lundgren & Michael Jai White face off in '#ExitProtocol' — and we're giving away DVDs! A deadly cat-and-mouse action thriller about an elite assassin forced to team up with his target to escape the hired killer gunning for them both. Enter… https://swtc.au/exitprotocol #Giveaway #ActionFilm

Got back behind the camera last night for the first time in ages — and what a gig to choose. #FrankTurner at Sydney's Roundhouse was something else. Jet-lagged but absolutely electric. Photos & review up at @maketheswitchau.bsky.social now. https://swtc.au/frankturner #BowlMyBones #LiveMusic

Sheep solving a murder mystery — yes, really. '#TheSheepDetectives' is one of 2026's biggest surprises: brilliantly witty, genuinely moving and anchored by a magnificent cast. Our ★★★★ review… https://swtc.au/thesheepdetectives #FilmReview #Comedy

#FrankTurner brought the house down at Sydney's Roundhouse on Sunday night — electric from start to finish. Our editor @charliedavidpage.bsky.social was there to capture it all. Check out all the photos... https://swtc.au/frankturner #FrankTurner #BowlingForSoup #BowlMyBones @destroyalllines

Irish folklore, a remote village, Adam Scott — '#Hokum' should have been a #horror slam dunk. Unfortunately it's a messy, underdeveloped misfire that squanders a genuinely compelling premise. Scott deserved better. More in my @maketheswitchau.bsky.social review… https://swtc.au/hokum #FilmReview

A rich Irish folklore premise, Adam Scott, and a reasonable budget — yet 'Hokum' squanders all of it. A messy, jump-scare-heavy misfire that leaves its best ideas entirely undeveloped. More in our review... https://swtc.au/hokum #Hokum #FilmReview #Horror

Warwick Thornton's '#Wolfram' is a searing, masterfully crafted sequel to 'Sweet Country' — a devastating portrait of colonial brutality and one of the finest Australian westerns ever made. Pedrea Jackson is an absolute revelation. More in our ★★★★½ review... https://swtc.au/wolfram #FilmReview

OUT TODAY: Adapted from the viral indie video game, 'Exit 8' traps a man in a loop of Tokyo subway tunnels in a genuinely eerie horror premise. Inventive for a stretch, but ultimately a concept that can't quite sustain its runtime. Our review… https://swtc.au/exit8 #Exit8 #FilmReview #JapaneseFilm

Jaafar Jackson's physical recreation of his uncle is genuinely phenomenal — but 'Michael' the biopic is frustratingly surface-level, more clip show than character study. The King of Pop deserved a deeper dive. https://swtc.au/michael #Michael #FilmReview #MichaelJackson

We're giving away Blu-rays of 'Talamasca: The Secret Order Season 1' thanks to AMC — a supernatural spy thriller about a regular guy recruited by the secret agency of the immortal world. We watch, and we are always there... Enter here… https://f.mtr.cool/ohglztncad #Talamasca #Giveaway #TVSeries
