"Silly and stupid seem to be a national pastime in the land of Aussie."
"Elliott also tries for a sub-text concerning the dilemma of the disenfranchised, which mostly works in a quirky way."
"It's not so weird once you get co-opted into their world. Maybe it's because the acting is solid ... Woop Woop is silly. But thanks to a decent cast, it's not nearly as stupid as it pretends to be."
RATING 59/100 (112 votes)
"Welcome to Woop Woop benefits from the same outrageous style that clinched success for Stephan Elliott's
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert... bawdy humour, outrageous situations, colourful characters and a certain eccentricity.
He also exudes a patriotic individualism, specific to many Australian films.... this outback tale is mean spirited,
socially inept and not very funny."
"Surely the team could come up with a film that didn't require an aspirin before the credits rolled.
RATING 1 out of 5
"It's distressing to report that director Stephan Elliott's latest film, Welcome to Woop Woop
is shrill and incoherent."
"Writer-Director Elliott has taken a surefire screwball comedy premise (ordinary rube caught in town from hell) and botched it at every turn."
"None of the performers can be faulted... especially former Hollywood heartthrob Rod Taylor... Susie Porter has energy to burn, and Dee Smart is refreshingly low-key as the good girl... Woop Woop has no method to it's madness: the film is just one unending string of fart jokes padded to feature length."
"I'll listen to any guesses as to what Stephan Elliot is trying to accomplish with his new movie, "Welcome to Woop Woop".
"I can't imagine what caused "Welcome to Woop Woop"to happen outside of the fact that Elliot is also responsible for the surprise 1995 indie hit, "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert."
"I also noted about 10 different times during the movie when dialogue was being delivered by an actor with afly crawling on his face."
"It's a brutal chore to sit through. The violence is too foul to be funny, and the 'jokes'are mostly just stupid."
"Welcome to Woop Woop" is proudly grotesque... You tell me how these movies get made."
