This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Bought this off Google play the other day for $3 and I so wish I could get my money back. This is another shocking Aussie movie. Another reviewer says is a down right embarrassment for Australians and I 100% agree. It didn't help that the night before I had watched the great Aussie film The Castle. How far the mighty Australian film industry has falling when we continue to get junk like this. All the actors were terrible in this too but it was more the script they were working with then the lack of talent. Manu who i can't stand at the best of times is particularly annoying. Magda Szubanski's butcher character wasn't any better and even Shane Jacobson couldn't rescue this film.

This movie is an embarrassment to Australia and all of its occupants. I kept watching hoping for something to improve, but was relieved to see the end. We have the capability to produce good quality films, unfortunately the bbq is one that lowers our overall score. I would be embarrassed to sit in the same room as any foreigner whilst watching this.

Dazza has a passion for barbequing. He accidentally gives his neighbours food poisoning. To make amends he seeks tutelage from the tyrannical Scottish chef and together they enter an international barbecue competition. If you want to waste 1hr and 27mins of your life alongside alot of advertising and food after food and some pretty bland protagonists that you somehow have to cheer for 'The BBQ' is the film for you but if not? Don't waste your time and just go and see something else anything really that is actually funny and not cheesy. (0/10)
