The Commons (2019)
Very watchable

Obviously very timely subject matter and more so if you're an Aussie. Performances are pretty solid and script, thank god, isn't trite like The Gloaming. It could be set anywhere in the world and doesn't try to whip in cliched Australian themes and language. I found a few moments gripping and at least one "challenge you not to cry if you're feeling hormonal" scene. Overall - very good.

The Gloaming (2020)
Cliched script and wooden performances

Everyone feels like they're acting in isolation from each other. Trying way too hard to be Nordic Noir. Plus, the little references to our history eg "Imagine how the convicts felt?" FFS what Australian would ever say that! Again, an Australian production trying to be like the rest of the world.
