Looky Looky Here Comes Cooky

About This Movie

So, 'Looky Looky Here Comes Cooky' is really something. It dives into the Cook legend but flips it around to show things from a First Nations' viewpoint. The vibe here is very much about connection to the land, resistance, and survival, and it’s all stitched together through this vibrant songline. Steven Oliver, with his sharp wit and genuine warmth, brings a real dynamism to the film. The pacing flows nicely, mixing some heartfelt moments with a cheeky charm. It’s not just another documentary; it’s more like a cultural tapestry woven with threads of political commentary. You can see all these Indigenous performers shine, making their voices heard in profound ways. Definitely a distinctive piece in the doco landscape.
