The BBQ

Starring Shane Jacobson, Magda Szubanski, Julia Zemiro, Nicholas Hammond, and Manu Feildel.

Shane Jacobson stars as Dazza, a loveable suburban everyman who claims to be a descendant of Captain Cook and has a passion for barbequing, but after accidentally giving his neighbours food poisoning at his regular Saturday BBQ, Dazza's reputation and dignity are on the line.

Seeking atonement, he teams up with a tyrannical Scottish chef known as "The Butcher" and enters an international BBQ competition.

[3] Leigh Paatsch of the Herald Sun called the film "so overwhelmingly bland, you often forget how faintly awful it consistently remains from beginning to end.

"[4] Luke Buckmaster of The Guardian wrote, "Jacobson may be the best thing about the director and co-writer Stephen Amis' The BBQ, though that is not the same as saying he comes even remotely close to saving it.
