(Denny German, 2009-10-13) this is the best movie of the world...! im 28 years old and after i saw the movie i couldn't belive it..! tears running n my face, i thought that i didn't cry until tonite oct 12 09 this is the best movie i've ever seen...
(J. Prolo, 2009-10-11) Just finished watching this movie again, and once again was inspired and impressed! I love watching this movie again and again. The story is moving and heartwarming.
(Dolina, 2009-10-06) I suppose I have the disadvantage of having seen too many movies in a moderately long life, which means I could predict every cliched moment of this effort way in advance. Is there any hackneyed plot device that was left out of this overly long and exhausting melodrama? I have always considered Nicole Kidman a competent actress but in this she constantly overacts in a strained attempt to mimic some kind of emotional range. The soundtrack is awful except for the bit of Elgar they steal for the last scene.
(Anne Edwardson, 2009-10-06) I purchased this DVD and I am very dissappointed that I can't play it on any of my four DVD players. I will have to consider carefully buying from America again as I don't want to waste my money buying Region 1 DVD'S and still having to buy them here. This is the first time it has happened and I have been steadily building up my library of DVD'S from Amazon.
(Varda Whitebird, 2009-10-03) It's a bit of a schlocky view of Australian history, more what the modern generation might have wished had happened. It's a movie that doesn't take itself seriously, part comic, part fantasy, part history. I never really felt Nicole Kidman's character, Lady Ashley, developed into a real person, she always remained a bit stock. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the movie and watched it twice in a row. The Aboriginal sub-plot, or maybe its the main plot, was fantastic, if not quite believable, but still quite beautiful.
