This movie is not as bad as the North American media say, I really enjoyed it. I have never liked watching literary films, I couldn't sit still and wanted to sleep, but "Australia" really attracted me. The plot, soundtrack, visuals, and costume design were all very good.
Talk about what I think "Australia" is very good:
1. Two indigenous people have touched me too much, one is Lala, the other is his grandfather.
2. The soundtrack is great, I like indigenous music very much, it gives people a kind of heart touching.
3. The clothes designed by Baz's wife are really PL. She loves the red cheongsam and the white dress of Lu Ao. They are so beautiful. And there's Hugh's white suit, man!
4. Hugh is really handsome, and it feels completely different from "X-MAN". He is sooooooo sexy in denim, no wonder he is rated as the sexiest man! The half-naked shower in the first half is completely seducing me!
5. Visually enjoyable, although Australia is not as beautiful as New Zealand, the cliffs, cliffs and waterfalls are really shocking. The photographer is really good at capturing shots, and the scene under the big tree and the sunset is really beautiful.
The fly in the ointment:
1. Dubbing! ! ! ! I can't stand it. The voice of the lady who dubbed Nicole was too... my friends who watched the movie with me also thought the dubbing was rubbish! Especially when Nicole saw the kangaroo when she first arrived at the farm, she screamed disgusting!
2. Speaking of Nicole, the biggest emotion is that she lacks aura and feels a bit like a vase. It's not as good as expected at all, far less than in previous years. (Maybe I'm asking too much)
3. The theme is not clear, I don't know what to highlight, it feels a bit messy. And it feels a little stiff in the front and rear. It feels a bit like a hodgepodge...
4. The special effects shots are a little stiff.
The reason for giving 9 points, 7 points for the plot, 1 point for the director, soundtrack, cameraman, and the last point is of course Nicole.
Tears have been wrapped in tears, and I was particularly moved by several scenes. First, Chocolate's mother was drowned. Second, Hugh went to the mysterious island to find the children. When the children emerged from the trees, the third was when Nicole and Chocolate reunited.
Nicole has changed, time is not forgiving!
PS: If Hugh died in the end, "Australia" would be even better. (Baz had the same ending before the release, but the fans said they couldn't stand it after watching it, so they changed it to a happy ending. It seems like this!)
