Soft Fruit Movie Review

The epitome of what's wrong with Australian cinema today. Pity the poor mother who is not only dying of cancer, she has to contend with a dunderhead husband, three grating and obese daughters, and a visiting son, fresh out of prison. Obsessed with Jackie Kennedy, the whole story reeks of falsehood, yet another dysfunctional oddball family living down under, waiting for someone to die so the movie can end. Bizarre without any sense of subversion, despite a few moments that make you open your eyes more than halfway.
