THE STORY:
Two very different men, one wronged by family and the other by society share a fierce, bleak and furious pursuit through the harsh Australian outback to recover a stolen car and a brother lost.
TOP PERFORMANCES:
1. Guy Pearce. His sullen, silent and intensely masculine portrait of Eric, an isolated man of few words who is violently murderous is outstanding.
2. Robert Pattinson. His sensitive and intelligent characterisation of the intellectually challenged and street-smart Rey is emotionally engaging and haunting.
THREE THINGS WE LIKED:
The tense body language of the brooding Eric that betrays his inner pain
The childlike humanity and loyalty of loose cannon Rey, who just wants to be loved
The dusty, dry vision of a vicious Australia that is both endless and nowhere
THREE WORDS:
Unflinching Outback Violence
