Movie Review by Jesse December 16th, 2006

One of the Greatest Australian Films Ever Made
Holy perfectness. This movie draws you in and doesn't let you go until the credits roll. What suspense! The story is so original and won many Australian Film Awards. Unfortunately, it missed out on the Oscars. Such potential, I am surprised it missed out. Five Oscar-worthy performances in this gem. Anthony LaPaglia was terrific. I always see him as a cop, though. I wish he would go beyond that or he will be typecast as a cop for the rest of his career. He did a great job, though. Geoffrey Rush's character is such a mysterious person. When he comes on screen the atmosphere is so heavy and suspenseful. It's great. Barbara Hershey, for me, was the best. She is so underrated as an actress and I wish people would appreciate her work more. She gives the best performance. Awesome movie... probably one of my new favourites. I've always loved Mystery movies and this one has to be one of the best I've seen... ever. Wow. That's all I can say because this film takes the words right out of my mouth. Just watch it. You'll know what I mean.
