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.

Hyde Park On Hudson (out Mar 28) is based on actual events - a weekend in 1939 when the King & Queen of England travelled to the United States to sure up support from President Roosevelt before WWII. This is an unfulfilling movie. It's an insignificant story told the perspective of a boring individual (Roosevelt's mistress) and provides little insight into the characters. Grade: C.
