Australia
Directed by Baz LuhrmannIn northern Australia at the beginning of World War II, an English aristocrat inherits a cattle station the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough stock-man to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country's most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbor only months earlier.

Australia Ratings & Reviews
- MR_BigTimeJanuary 14, 2026WIth all its drama, comedy, and action, Australia manages to never miss a beat during its runtime of over 150 minutes. This is easily one of the smoothest two and a half hours watch I've experienced, several times. And Nullah's cute monologue throughout only makes it better. Solid 5 stars.
- ርልዪረFebruary 1, 2025Australia is a magnificent film. It is at the same time a comedy, a western, a romance, a period piece and a war movie, with the gorgeous Australian landscapes as backdrop.
