COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A Full Story submitted by LibraryLiz on July 22, 2016, 9:35pm This movie has it all: adventure, comedy, suspense, romance, coming-of-age, challenging stereotypes, and a good ol' fashioned bar fight! Seriously though, this movie has so many good parts - not least among is two fantastic native Australians as the two leads. Also being directed by an Australian, it has a wonderful recognition of the beauty and the history of this continent. Check it out!
Australia submitted by avrogers1 on June 22, 2022, 11:34am This was a great film. Fast paced story line, I was so engrossed in the story and connected with the characters. I wad invested in their journeys. This film had excellent casting and the acting was great. The pairing of Kidman and Jackman is wonderful. They have so much chemistry.
