Review of Locusts

Locusts (2019)
5/10
We've seen it all before
21 July 2020
The Australian film industry doesn't do itself any favours. I have lost count of how many Australian films involve trailer trash ( or whatever the Australian equivalent is ) that live in a farm or in a small town and are intent on violence and killing . Talk about stereotyping a nation and this film is no different.

This is the story of to brothers who are reunited after their fathers funeral and become a target of extortion from a group of violent local thugs .

This is not a terrible film . In actual fact the performances are really good but I've seen it all before and sadly the film bored me because of that .

The title is deceiving as well . Despite the first scene describing what Locusts do it's not about locusts. If it was , it might have been more interesting.
