Surprisingly Authentic

First, a bit of history on this Aussie version. Originally out of 16th century Italy the puppet show quickly spread to the rest of Europe including England (and even the U.S.) initially as a marionette show mostly for adults, but later evolved into gloved puppets (interesting we see it at the end of the movie). In the beginning it was violence infused, but changed into a more children acceptable comedic. Phrases associated, "That's the way to do it.", "Pleased as punch.". Second, lots of worthy contributing positives: Award winning background music/sound effects & acting; sets; location; props & costuming very authentic; makeup (for once in a period movie very authentic grunge); the extended & real dialogue. Although the plot was a bit of dark humor it was both educational & entertaining - kudos.

can be infuriating

Judy (Mia Wasikowska) and Punch (Damon Herriman) are a married couple with a rambunctious puppet show in the small medieval town of Seaside which is nowhere near the sea. Judy is worried that Punch is making the show more and more violent. She dislikes the brutality of the town which includes stoning for superstitions. Punch is a drunk and causes the death of their baby. When she confronts him, he brutally beats her and leaves her for dead. He reports them missing to the new naive constable Derrick and riles up the town to hang the two innocent servants.

Watching a serious movie about dumb people can be infuriating. That's the feeling of this movie for the most part. I do like the style and the theme. While Punch is frustrating, Judy's journey is compelling. I don't really like the ending where the town learns a lesson. It seems more appropriate to burn the whole place down. The story is screaming for something more explosive. I certainly understand the idea of the goodness of the puppet show and its redemptive qualities. It's not as satisfying as I want.

That's The Way To Do It!

A reworking of the Punch & Judy puppet show, set in a non explainable time and location. Great acting from all, script is well above average, a good solid budget which looks of high quality on the screen, and an absolutely fantastic music score. A very well made period horror / thriller, really worth a watch, probably more than once.
