What People have Said About The Cinematic Experience:
"Jason ran in the earlier movies, but then once he was killed and came back to life in #5, I think that's when he became more zombie like. I'm not 100% on that, but pretty certain."

Mate...Jackman is the Drover not the Dover! That's Aussie for someone who drives cattle and yes the Aboriginal kid is Aboriginal! Cameron is right, Australia is a big place and there are plenty of real Aborigines still here!
Yeah Cameron. and seriously did you mean to compare Aborigines to retards? Thats some very offensive stuff. I'm sure that was just an editing foible like the "dover" "drover" thing.
Phew, if it weren't for this movie, "The Man From Snowy River", "Crocodile Dundee", "Danny Deckchair" and "The Proposition" then I would be way more ignorant about Austraila then I already am.
It wasn't a comparison. It was a parallel.
I guess it's obvious who the more intelligent reviewer is, isn't it?
"Dover"... psht.
By the way, Jay... I'm pretty sure it's spelled "Abhoriginee's".
I thought this was a very fair assessment.
Yuh done did me proud, boys!
hi guys, I think I need to clear up a couple of things for you on Australia the country and the movie.
First of all its called a Cattle Station in Australia not a ranch, (we are not from Texas)
and second the comment on whether Brandon Walters (the little Aboriginal boy) is really aboriginal and then to ask if there is really any aboriginals left in Australia I nearly choked. You have got to be either really stupid or really arrogant to know so little about any other culture but your own.

I loved this movie.
I found myself comparing this movie more to "Gone With The Wind" than anything else; an epic film spanning life before, during and after war but with an undercurrent of race and class. I found it interesting and beautiful, but you're right - it's just not a "best picture". I'm a fan of Baz Luhrman, but this was sort of a departure for him. There were elements of his cinematic whimsey and the use of several familiar actors/actresses from his prior works, but it lacked the same punch that he typically offers. The Aboriginal child was an incredible actor and it's amazing that this was his first performance. I think his talent would continue to remain consistently good in other roles. I was pleased to see some mainstream attention given to Austrailia's own racist past, but a better film to watch (in regards to this topic) is the 2002 "Rabbit Proof Fence". It's a true story about three Aboriginal children kidnapped by the government and gives you a tremendous history lesson that proves to be both shocking and inspiring.
All of us watched this last night, We totally agree! YOu guys rock!
Did you guys miss the bedroom scene? Don't you understand old fashioned romance where you start out disliking and misunderstanding each other and build to passion as you go through some difficult things together? Didn't you see the African Queen? This was a wonderful classic romance that they just don't make anymore. I loved every minute of its 3 hours. Some things take a little time to develope and the "Over the Rainbow" music tied all the segments together and was totally charming. I liked it so much I bought the movie.
