Eagle vs Shark

This film was a lovely quirkey surprise.

Most may probably think it was rubbish, but I actually liked it. It was unconventionial and refreshing. Lily is a lonely, sweet soul, who’s fallen for Jarrod (who knows why!?!) who’s intent on revenge on his childhood bully.

Somehow this film impresses, with its scaristic Nerd humour and charm. Fav scenes include the animal party, Jarrod’s sis and husbands matching jumpsuits and Lily’s bro Duncan. II’s classic, awkward, nerdy comedy, with plenty of sweetness thrown in.

If you’re wanting to see a different film that’s clearly low budget and not trying to be anything its not, this is it.

Steph’s rating: 7/10
