Anders Wotzke is the Editor and resident film critic here at Moviedex, which he began in 2008 partly in a bid to make use of his Media degree at the University of Adelaide, but mostly as a means to see movies for free (no point sugar-coating it!). He achieved this goal in 2009, where he somehow found his way onto media accreditation lists in the city of Adelaide. Bizarrely enough, people have continued to confuse him for someone knowledgeable ever since, granting him membership in the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS), the Australian Film Critics Association (AFCA) and on the popular review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. In 2011, the AFCA honoured Anders with a Writing Award for his review of The Loved Ones.

Based on a [...]

(This is a parody video, just in case you thought these were actual bloopers.)

Super-producer Judd Apatow and his creative minions have given the romantic comedy a much needed shakeup in recent years, embracing humour of a more raunchy and irreverent variety while also pasteurising the classic formula with a welcome degree of sincerity. Still, if last year’s Bridesmaids is any indication, Apatow’s rom-com recipe has yet to be perfected, the film’s serious and silly elements struggling to meld into [...]
