8/10
Laughed so hard I nearly peed my pants, however...

Look - this is not a great film. It doesn't take you anywhere you haven't been before, it is pure entertainment and nothing more. There's no intellectual challenge, there's no emotional connection - this is not an important film.

That said, David Wenham's 'Spitz' is just so damn funny!

And that's what this film is for. It's an entertaining couple of hours. It's not the saviour of the Australian film industry but it does have a place. Sometimes we just need to kick back, switch off and have a good laugh.

Gettin' Square is funny, light entertainment. It's just your standard heist flick bordering on The Castle style suburban kitch but it does still stand up on it's own - just. Perhaps because we are strongly suspect that 'Spitz' actually does exist (even if we don't know him)... and please, Sam Worthington is so hot!

Have you ever noticed that only european cinema, especially french & spanish, seem able to produce this kind of black whimsical film which engages you intellectually and leaves you awakened, intrigued and excited?
