Australia

Went out to buy Underworld-3 cd, instead bought Australia, and watched it last weekend. There's nothing too good or bad about the movie, its just about nice.

I enjoyed watching Nicole Kidman change from a pesky,uptight Lady to a cattle station owner, Mrs.Boss. This reminded me so much of Scarlet in Gone with the wind, and wow! what a replacement for Clark Gable, Hugh jackman is all eyes for, he seems a bit old though, the huge mass of muscle hez built is probably for his new movie Wolverine(which i am eagerly waiting to watch).

The other best part of the movie I loved was the references made to Wizard Of Oz, the Song - Rainbows and Dreams, and a glimpse of Judy Garland. (Check out the right bottom of this page for the song).
Overall not a bad movie, you will enjoy it if you are fascinated by 1900's type of classics, cowboys and the English.
