"Two young boys one-up and double-bluff each other in outdoorsy settings of increasing peril - it's hard to imagine a similar film being made in Australia on OH&S grounds alone! This is masterful filmmaking from director Jeremy Comte, steeped in an understanding of the existential dangers of what masculinity expects of even the youngest imbued with it. Not a single shot is out of place; a coda which could have been surplus to requirement instead carries a poetic sucker punchline rich in symbolism and which, having earnt it through investment in characterisation and evocation of place, is sure to turn on the waterworks."
