Working Dog, who of course made the hugely successful films The Castle and The Dish, have come up with a new film after a 12 year break, (from film, that is). Any Questions For Ben? is being released on February 9 in Australia.

There is a scathing review of the film on Crikey. Here’s the link:  http://blogs.crikey.com.au/cinetology/2012/01/30/any-questions-for-ben-movie-review-none-for-ben-plenty-for-working-dog/

Personally, I have huge respect for Rob Sitch, Santo Cilauro, Tom Gleisner, Jane Kennedy and Michael Hirsch at Working Dog, so I’m willing to head down to the cinema to check it out. And I love the way the film apparently features Melbourne as it has evolved over the past ten years.

However it remains to be seen whether Luke Buckmaster’s review is on target or not. Jim Schembri’s review of Stephan Elliott’s A Few Best Men seems out of kilter with it’s opening weekend takings of $1.9 million.
