Thanks to Roadshow Films, we have 5 double digital in-season passes (Admit 2) to see the terrifying new horror flick Whistle, in Australian theatres from February 12th, 2026. A group of high school misfits inadvertently come across an ancient Aztec death whistle. Blowing it summons their future deaths to hunt them down. As the body count…
The InterContinental Tahiti Resort and Spa delivers luxury with island charm and an ocean view for everyone. It doesn’t take much to float dreams of French Polynesia through your mind’s eye. When words like “Tahiti” and “Bora Bora” are thrown into the wind, we all get visions of steep mountains carpeted in lush green jungle,…
There is a strangely elegiac calm to the opening stretch of Ric Roman Waugh’s latest Jason Statham vehicle, Shelter – one that might catch viewers expecting immediate punches, car chases, and broken necks slightly off guard. For a while, this isn’t really a movie about violence so much as solitude: wind-battered cliffs, a creaking wooden…
There is something almost old-fashioned in the way writer/director Zak Hilditch approaches the end of the world in We Bury the Dead: less as a spectacle of chaos, more as a slow, sad reckoning with what remains when everything familiar has vanished.

Ahead of its general release this Friday, the AU review is proud to premiere the live video for “Figure It Out” from Joan & the Giants and Seb Szabo.

While it has been a solid entry in the Mario sports genre, outside of the motion controls on the Wii in Mario Power Tennis, when that felt new and exciting, since then, the novelty of motion controls has definitely worn off. After the…
Wolf Alice currently touring exclusively with Laneway Festival have just announced an Australian tour The Clearing for December 2026. One of the best live bands to emerge from the English music scene from the past 10 years and having witnessed Wolf Alice live personally on every tour since 2018 I can highly recommend to catch…
The first Code Vein didn’t really grab much of my attention when it released back in 2019, but I had gotten around to it some time later, with some surprisingly pleasant results. I wouldn’t go as far as to say it broke new ground within the Souls-like genre, but it certainly did enough to warrant…
As I wrote on the recent opening of IHG’s voco Gosford on the Central Coast, some of Sydney’s oldest seaside hotels are being dusted up for well-timed makeovers, some moulding into more premium brands, while others (like voco) sprout as brand-new builds. “A new chapter in coastal luxury” is what they’re calling it, with IHG…
