Very good, but sub-titles would help understand some of the dialogue

"Australia" is a real disappointment. Having heard the poor reviews after it was released, I wanted to see for myself. The movie was bad from beginning to end with poor directing, acting, story line. Should be rated a children's movie. What was Nicole thinking with those lips? She couldn't even kiss. She is no Goldie Hawn (First Wives Club). Normally Hugh Jackman is a good actor but he was badly directed in this movie. Narration by children should be reserved for children's movies, their little voices are no match for background music. There were so many ridiculous dramas in the movie, we gave up trying to believe any of it.

This is a really good movie. It is bloodthirsty and cruel and makes you wonder how humans can be so cruel to each other. It is not for the faint hearted. Mel Gibson seems to be a great director.

This was interesting, amazing to see how difficult it would have been to live under such terrible circumstances.

I don't know why anyone bothers to make this sort of documentary. Not worth watching!

hardly a thriller

very disappointing to find that it was an "animated" film - that is not a style we enjoy so we didn't even watch it.

the idea of monsters in the surrounding bush sounded a bit predictable but the actual story was better than that with a good ending
