Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Stork is the nickname of a 6 foot 7 inch Walter Mitty with revolutionary leanings, who quits his secure job with General Motors to opt out in a flat full of frowning, culturally-aspiring colleagues. At the heart of Stork's freak behaviour, sick practical jokes, and constant fantasising, a vast timidity with women unfortunately lies. Stork is in fact more Adventures of Barry McKenzie; and if you were able to wheeze and giggle your way through that, you'll probably do the same with this totally appalling mess of dismal Aussie gags about beer and chundering.Author:
