NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN

Party all night, sleep all day, never caring about the consequences. This is the life and times of Jonah (Ryan Kwanten) and his two best mates Gus (Ryan Corr) and Stevie (Sarah Snook) - that is, until Johan is diagnosed with testicular cancer and informed that the treatment will render him infertile. Faced with possible mortality and a lack of options, Johan sets out in search of an egg for his seed with just one month in which to do it. While trying to be positive Jonah’s friends fear he’s gone crazy, yet still aid him in his efforts the best way they know how when faced with a situation none of them thought was possible.

Ryan Kwanten is ever the panty dropper with his good looks and puppy dog eyes, combine well with his character's honest and endearing intentions and some surprising, subtle and sincere comedy chops. Sarah Snook is gorgeous inside and out as Stevie, the woman we’ve all either been or known - who is faced with some hard realities of her own due to her best friend’s sudden misfortune.

Ryan Corr is the friend in the background thinking he’s the one holding everything together, inputting maximum effort and inciting maximum damage - who believes everything can be fixed with a beer and a party. While not a main player, his presence is always noticed, and his facial expressions and short bursts of dialogue prove hilarious and invaluable.

While remaining a comedy, Oscar nominated filmmaker Peter Templeman regards the material with the sincerity, heart and sexiness it requires to be an all-round winner and another notch in the Australian film industry's belt as it continues its return to form.

‘Not Suitable For Children’s’ high concept is borderline Hollywood, yet incorporates enough Australiana (in a good way) to please locals and fans alike.
