Was hoping for a shark attack
7 January 2023
A shark attack would have given this movie some life. As it is, it's essentially a romance between two people who barely know each other that we're supposed to believe are so passionately in love that they can't live without each other, or at least the woman can't live without the man. There was absolutely no development to their relationship. My wife and I assumed the characters knew each other and had a history, but it became apparent as the film went on that they didn't. It seems the woman has a history of giving herself to men she barely knows, which one might associate with the typical lady of the evening.

Other than that, there is no action other than a flashback scene outside a bar, and the attempt to pull at your heart-strings with the frequent appearance of the child character fails miserably. She actually becomes more annoying than anything.

I don't know, I'm thinking I should give up on the Aussie movies. I'm pretty sure I saw one I liked quite a few years ago, but it's been tough going since.
