If you are like me, you grew up with the Muppets. It could have been with the original 1970’s variety show on television, films like The Muppet Movie and the delightful The Muppet Christmas Carol. Or maybe you (and your kids!) are fans of their educational cousins Elmo and Big Bird. Well they’re back in a new movie, titled simply The Muppets. Jason Segel (How I Met Your Mother) is a star and producer of this family film.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if we had a character like Noah in modern times? It wasn’t something that had ever crossed this reviewer’s mind but the new film Take Shelter certainly changed that!

With the massive amount of American movies that hit our screen each week it’s only natural (if lamentable) that sometimes the smaller Australian movies get pushed to the side. But Surviving Georgia is one Australian film – shot right here in Melbourne – that deserves to be taken a good look at.

Sometimes a film comes along that really does have the power to challenge the way we think. The new film Higher Ground is one such film.
