Australia: Over the Rainbow

Sat, 31 Jan 2009 20:29:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author topreviewerman - An older gentleman told me in the ticket line that this is a great movie, and having seen it I quite agree. Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman) flies from England to the Northern Territory being suspicious of her husband Maitland's doings with the...

Australia: Unnecessary and Poor Remake of "Gone with the Wind"

Sat, 24 Jan 2009 03:44:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author paxromana -

I understand many of you may have heard of an old little film called “Gone with the Wind”, but may not have had a chance to watch that film from beginning to end to under...

Australia: Australia-Jackman with claws retracted well some of the time

Fri, 2 Jan 2009 18:27:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author theresa80 - This is the perfect "date night" movie. Not only does it appeal to women, but men will find it has the right amount of action and not too much romance where the true plot of the movie gets drowned out. This movie is sure to be a classic up...

Australia: Australia - not a faultless production, but a very enjoyable film nonetheless.

Wed, 24 Dec 2008 22:15:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author captaind - I have to admit that I hadn't initially been that keen to watch Australia - from the trailer, it looked to me rather like a Western, a genre I'm not keen on, only set in the outback rather than the Wild West. However Baz Luhrmann's epic...

Australia: Australia - Down Under and Outback is where this should be left

Fri, 19 Dec 2008 14:20:56 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author naphtalia - I like Nicole Kidman. I like Hugh Jackman. I enjoy historic dramas. I had anticipated enjoying the movie Australia. I had wanted to like it. What can I say? It's nice to have desires, but we don't always get what we want or expect. Let me start off...

Fri, 19 Dec 2008 02:51:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Mooncreek9 - Australia is directed by Baz Luhrmann and stars Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. SPOILER ALERT!!!!!The beginning of the movie struck me as similar to the filming style of "Mary Poppins" and I disliked it immediately. I...

Australia: A moderately entertaining but completely forgettable epic

Fri, 5 Dec 2008 17:12:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rmurray847 - AUSTRALIA is a big, old-fashioned kind of epic that manages to entertain mildly on a very broad scale. It’s the kind of movie that made me think upon its conclusion, “I liked it okay…but it’s also a little weird and...

Australia: Not the movie it needed to be

Wed, 3 Dec 2008 07:38:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author anderz - It’s a bold and unusual move to name a film after an entire country. Considering that no feature length film since 1923 has been simply titled “America”, maybe there is a good reason why it’s not a common occurrence. Sure, the...

Australia: Everything in One

Mon, 1 Dec 2008 06:12:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author whitneylundell - I have never heard about "Australia" until the other night when I went to the theater with one of my good friends. We showed up late to the movie theater and wasn't able to go to the movie we wanted to. The only other movie that looked somewhat decent...

Australia: Western, War Movie or Romance? You Decide.

Sun, 30 Nov 2008 07:23:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Alena - I am a big fan of Baz Luhrman's work, but I was a bit disappointed in his latest movie, Australia. It seemed to me he tried to turn two movies into one. The first movie was a solid western about beating a meat tycoon at his own game and the...

Australia: Australia, a lot of epics rolled into one

Thu, 27 Nov 2008 14:44:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author darthmary - It's always a pleasure to look forward to any film directed by Baz Luhrmann, who creates movies which are visually stunning to look at that often carries stories that may or may not live up to that vision. When he's successful as he was in Strictly...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mike.holmes - I have to admit it. Although I have never been to Australia, I have a love for the country and its people. I have met several Australians and gone on tour to Europe with a large group from Oz. And, I really like Nicole Kidman and Hugh...
