Australia


In the days leading up to World War II, Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman) inherits a sprawling cattle ranch in northern Australia. Threatened by land barons, she reluctantly joins her farmhand (Hugh Jackman) as he drives 2,000 head of cattle across the outback. While on the grueling trek, they witness the Japanese bombing of Darwin, which heralds Australia's entry in the war.
At first, I thought this movie was not going to be good, it started a little bizzarre. But then it got much better, it's long, 2 hours and 45 minutes, but I was interested through the whole thing. Especially interested when Hugh Jackman took off his shirt. :)
