Happy Australia Day Quickflixers!
Well, it's not quite Australia Day yet, but close enough right? Regardless, we're in a festive spirit and we have an issue so packed full of goodness you'll require the entire public holiday to absorb it all!
To get you in the patriotic spirit, we have a whole bunch of collections featuring the very best Australian movies, and we also review our favourite Aussie film of the past year, Mary and Max.
We also review the latest movie musical Nine, take a look at the films that received the most complaints in 2009, and join in on a conversation with the team at Pixar about Up.
Quickflix News - a newsletter girt by sea.

Wait Until Dark

|
| Quite a different movie for Audrey. If Alan Arkin doesn't make you jump then perhaps you have no pulse. This movie shows the brilliance of a good story, directing and acting needs no special effects or CGI.

| This is the best movie I have ever seen. It is not a normal movie, you have to enter a certain mechanism in order to follow it, and if this happens you will see under your eyes the masterpiece of a real genius at work. If you don't enter this mechanism you will see only a series of senseless scenes. Anyway, it is among the best ten movies ever made.
