I just watched the movie and i just wanted to say it is by far the greatest movie i have ever seen. it was just a movie more of an experience.
Jackman and nicoles best film ever no 2 other actors could have pulled that film off…..
it was a great insight into the australian lifestyle i give it 10 out of 10
What a wonderful movie. My husband rarely suggests going to a movie; but this one was his idea…and a great idea! We loved everything about it; the story, the actors, the characters, Nulla, the scenery, the history lessons. Awesome. Can’t stop thinking about it.
This movie much better then the one Mel Gibson played long time ago
