(...) There is a lot of narrative flab and longueurs in the first two hours and the film often has the pace of a steamroller with engine trouble." | |||

"Baz Luhrmann has pulled off an incredible film (...) A love letter to the Australian landscape and our history, 'Australia' has international blockbuster written all over it." |
