You Better Take Cover Audience Reviews

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Onlinewsma Absolutely Brilliant!
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
andrewbunney This is fascinating story of an Australian musical icon, the Vegemite sandwich, Downunder classic by Men at Work. The documentary brilliantly assembles the story as told by all the key people.The film is a quintessentially important examination of the legal issues in a tribute v a copyright breach. Everyone will be fascinated by this story of hapless creative artists seeing the fruits of their labours skimmed and plundered. It's funny and moving with some great music.And of course, the law is an ass.5/5 stars Andrew Bunney, Let's Go To The Pictures, Three D Radio, ADELAIDE
