I love these small lowkey and low budget thrillers that work. Particularly in a nice gloomy environment. And this one just about plays out entirely in a storage facility.A nice mystery that keeps you guessing for most of its runtime and has got some good suspense and unexpected twists. Acting is also pretty good, particularly by 'Uncle' Leonard. Yes the final third is slightly more predictable and less suspenseful but definitely good enough to keep it interesting.I loved it. It kind of reminded me a little of "King of the Ants" by Stuart Gordon, even though the acting was much better in this one. 7/10

This film surprised me, its a nice little gem thats hidden in the land of direct to DVD.The opening has Jimmy and his dad watching Death Wish 2 in the cinema before his dad decides that he will be stabbed in the chest and die by the hands of a mugger on the way home. Do we feel for this character in any way? not really, he died literally about 2-3 Min's into the film, not enough to establish anything apart from he likes Charles Bronson, smokes, gets p*ssed of easily, and bleeds even easier.in reality its only a plot point so jimmy can go work with his uncle in the storage facility which houses some shady peoples. a biker making crack, coke or some delicious treat, an absent paedophile that has pictures of tied up children in his luggage and a man with bloodstained clothing and a gun. its the latter that jimmy takes main interest into. in the end, him and his uncle break into the mans house and Jimmy's uncle (who's ex s.a.s by the way) tortures the man until he admits he killed his wife, and then kills him with a hammer (his head has the consistency of play doh when the hammer hits) and then the uncle finds out that he was actually innocent.i found this quite clever, reversing who you believe is actually the villain, which turns out is Jimmy's uncle (he kills the nasty people, including that paedophile) but after we find this out, this is where the film loses its suspense that its actually kept well for a while, which is where it starts to go downhill slightly. not to much, but enough to affect the overall rating of the film.overall its a decent and enjoyable thriller. it keeps it suspense for most of the film, the acting is decent but dips here and there and the story is actually decent as well. the death of the father is never revisited (apart from once in a slightly forced dream half way through) and its touched upon but never explored properly. but id still say give it a go, its not too bad.

When I finished watching STORAGE I thought to myself this wasn't bad at all, this film was actually good considering I haven't really ever seen an Australian film that I could say was good but STORAGE was certainly an exception.STORAGE, although its a good film does have one flaw and that is a lack of suspense in the final act, the first half builds nicely, it sets up the mood, creates atmosphere, develops each character fully and keeps you guessing for quite a while and has a set of very good plot twists, the film even tries to side step the obvious genre clichés, these are all the positive things but the only thing that keeps it from being a great thriller is the lack of suspense towards the end, if I could be more specific without spoiling it, with the exception of one shocking moment its the most predictable part of the film.Overall, despite the one flaw STORAGE is worth seeing and is worthy of a broader audience, I definitely recommend this film if you want to see it.

First off, the acting is terrible.The plot makes no sense at all........young mans father gets murdered and goes to live with his uncle to work with him at his storage unit, young man comes across a creepy guy with a gun and blood soaked woman's underwear/clothes.They investigate and go to this guys house and the uncle smashes his head in with a hammer? LMAO, by that point I'd lost interest. Ridiculous.Anyway, you will know the rest if you've seen it, his uncle turns out to be a murdering psychopath who kills 'bad' people and dissolves them in barrels.THe whole film was so predictable, it was obvious his uncle was dodgy.I don't rate this crap Australian film one bit. The Aussie's can do much better than this.
