Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Lawless (out Oct 11) has as an over-the-top villain and a few unexplored subplots but for the most part, this is a good film. It's the interesting story of three brothers who ran an illegal moonshine business in the U.S. back in the early 1930s. The production values are terrific and the graphic violence gives it a heavy dose of realism. Grade: B+.
