Audience Reviews

SWITCH. 8/10 Jun 03, 2019
This odd mix of family, friends, plus ones and exes provides an entertaining - if not uncomfortable - film. By its conclusion, you’re bound to be exhausted by the whole experience, yet simultaneously fixated by the car-crash unfolding in slow motion before you. ‘Happy New Year, Colin Burstead’ has more secrets and infighting than an episode of ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians’, so sit back and watch the drama unfold.
