Review of Uproar

Uproar (2023)
10/10
Coming of Age for the Whole Family
1 April 2024
Beautifully written and directed with a light, deft touch that allow all the actors have space to be real. Julian Dennison holds the film together with terrific support from James Rolleston and Craig Hall. Minnie Driver delivers a subtle performance to remind us she's still out there with Star power.

The Indigenous themes set against the Springbok tour of 1984 are generous and heartfelt.

But it's the family themes, answering the question, "What are you," that resonate. Loving and holding it all together while letting go. Quite the tightrope to walk.

Watch it. A joy to spend time with a film that's about life as it's lived, and not clickbait fiction.
