Watch Cane Toads: The Conquest Movie Online No Survey The first 3D film shot in Australia, Cane Toads The Conquest is director Mark Lewis' sequel of sorts to his 1987 cult classic Cane Toads: An Unnatural History, which broke the nature film mold wide open - not only due to its irreverent attitude, but because, unlike most popular documentaries about animals, it was not about a cuddly, endangered species. On the contrary, it was about a feared, reviled, some would even go so far as to say ugly, swamp-dweller run amok. This time around, Lewis takes a giant leap forward as he revs up the technology, giving us, as he puts it 'Avatoad' (in homage to a famous 3D milestone) to once again track the unstoppable march of the cane toad across the Australian continent, now occupying nearly a third of the country, and continuing to spread and evolve into a bigger, faster, even more robust creature. -- (C) Rialto Release Date Cane Toads: The Conquest Sep 14, 2012 Limited

Review For Cane Toads: The Conquest
The namesake of the wacky, yet substantial documentary "Cane Toads: The Conquest" is not a creature to be taken lightly, even if the film (and the audience) has plenty of fun at his expense. David Lewis-San Francisco Chronicle Impressively directed, beautifully shot and quirkily irreverent, this is an entertaining, frequently fascinating documentary that manages to be both chilling and laugh-out-loud funny while delivering a serious ecological message. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Honestly, you couldn't make it up. Derek Malcolm-This is London It's director Mark Lewis's focus on this war's heroes that give his chirpy doc its bounce. Henry Barnes-Guardian [UK] The film is horrible, true (more or less) and often funny - dogs apparently get "highs" from licking the toads' backs - even if the subject no longer has quite its first, feral freshness. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times Mark Lewis' fascinating-if-niche documentary intersperses great 3D shots of these glistening, gobbling Jabbas with testimonies from boffins and crackpots. Matt Glasby-Total Film [Lewis'] art is all his own: no-one else shoots ugly amphibious imported pests in 3D quite like him. CJ Johnson-ABC Radio (Australia) Updating his famous 1988 documentary, Mark Lewis takes a warm and quirky look at the people who love, hate, sell, study, kill or hug the famous cane toads that have now spread across the top end of the nation. Simon Weaving-Screenwize Debate if you must, but Cane Toads: The Conquest just might be one of the best feature-length wildlife documentaries ever made; it's certainly one of the most entertaining - and one that easily holds up to a second screening. Jim Schembri-The Age (Australia) Educational and entertaining, Cane Toads: The Conquest offers an impartial, multi-headed and often funny look at the takeover of the great southern land by slimy, four legged monsters. Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews While Lewis can rarely resist cracking a joke at the expense of the cane toad phenomenon, he is always careful to ensure that his film educates as it entertains. Leigh Paatsch-Herald Sun (Australia) Conquest doesn't feel like it's nearly as much fun as its predecessor. Peter Galvin-sbs.com.au It's all fine as far as it goes, but it doesn't go very far. David Stratton-At the Movies (Australia) Entertaining, eye-opening and irreverent, this doco's true genius lies in its ability to capture the humour of real Aussies affected by the cane toad. James Fletcher-FILMINK (Australia) Where his first toad movie had the element of surprise, this sequel has the advantage of experience. Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile A fascinating look at the ubiquitous cane-toad, this entertaining documentary is informative, humorous and occasionally tragic as it traces its Australian origins and laments its future.
