Ruben Guthrie Ratings & Reviews
Sydney Morning Herald
Jake Wilson
As a writer and actor, Cowell is obviously talented if erratic; as a filmmaker he has a long way to go.
Guardian
Luke Buckmaster
An initially archetypal trajectory (boy loses girl; boy goes on mission to get her back) becomes something curlier and less conventional, with lashings of abrasive dialogue that recall its stage origins
Time Out Sydney
Nick Dent
It's all a bit low stakes,
Rip It Up
David 'Mad Dog' Bradley
Cowell makes his feature film dbut as writer/director/producer, bringing it to the screen with Patrick Brammall in terrific, tormented form as our titular 'hero'.
Junkee
Mel Campbell
Perhaps Ruben Guthrie makes more sense if you watch it while drunk. Being sober, I loathed it.
3AW
Jim Schembri
It might be a case of something essential getting lost in the translation, but first-time director Brendan Cowell's adaptation of his play about an alcoholic advertising man on the road to redemption is a well-intentioned mess.
FILMINK (Australia)
Cara Nash
It's an entertaining trip, but one that's also thought provoking and appropriately sobering.
sbs.com.au
Fiona Williams
"There's an unintended 'ripped from the headlines' quality to the story of an advertising executive's battle with alcohol"
Film Mafia
CJ Johnson
Sails breezily along with terrific dialogue, great performances and an extremely relatable story. It's excellent contemporary entertainment, the kind of character and situation-based comedy the French do so well but Australian cinema, not so much.
Urban Cinefile
Louise Keller
Based on Cowell's stage play, the film is as high spirited as the subject matter, delving into the social pressures surrounding the drinking culture and its effects on life, love and family
