Night Shift

I thought this movie was good but little slow to start... Funny most of the time, if you don't like swearing then don't watch... there is allot! I actually want to give it 7.5 stars.

If you're into old school Aussie cinema then you should probably check this out. I haven't seen this kind of thing from down-under for quite some time. No furrowed brows starring wistfully into the distance here folks, just some good old-fashioned potty-mouthed larrikinism. A decent soundtrack too.

Good little Aussie movie. Worth a crack. It's obviously a low budget one but not a bad effort all around.

Because it's an Aussie film, the comedy is different than a lot of American flicks. But it's got its amusing parts, and the actors are pretty good. Definitely has some Clerks vibes to it, and one of the youngsters is wearing a Clerks shirt in case the viewer doesn't quite pick up on it. The plot is a pretty straightforward "what else can go wrong", but it's interspersed with these flashbacks revealing how the guys got to where they are now. Because the two timelines are mixed, I actually thought it kept the pacing just right to draw me along at the right speed. And I actually fell for the twist, so the writer/director got an extra large laugh out of me for that. What really sold me was the honesty and realism of their loss. Having lost my own mom when I was young, I know that it does you for a loop, and the opening narration is spot on for how it feels. Yes, this is a comedy in that a silly situation resolves itself all perfectly with no real repercussions, but I think the opening and closing narrations are the REAL story. Everything else is just a fun ride on the way to that. I gave an extra star for the hidden emotions and truth.

This Australian Indie is a very clever, funny, and often heartfelt "heist" story. The heist is a joke, as our criminal brothers attempt to hold up a gas station convenience store fails miserably and hysterically. Lots of twists, including a totally-earned false ending, makes for a unique and entertaining ride.

A nice watch. Things go wrong and the chaos and humor that ensues. Nicely done.

This film is a real Australian comedy with lots of funny scenes. The main characters are very likeable and it has a great soundtrack.

The leads in this are hilarious. All around awesome movie with a ton of talent in front of and behind the camera as well. Awesome Friday night movie.

This film was so much fun to watch. My family and I enjoyed it from beginning to end (which is very rare). We very much enjoyed the story and acting. The actors all did such a good job!! Kudos to Director Joey Menzel. He did a good job keeping things moving along at a nice pace. So for me and my family... a big Thumbs up!
