David Rooney Hollywood Reporter I confess, I was willingly suckered into it. Jan 30, 2017 Full Review Eddie Cockrell Variety As an original Boys Own adventure, the film succeeds in painting a vividly nostalgic, if necessarily episodic, picture of an old-fashioned European Australian outback experience of sturdy men in a hard land. Jan 24, 2017 Full Review Luke Buckmaster Guardian The coming-of-age elements pull it into a softer, less contrived and more affecting space, which is ultimately where this very rewarding journey resides. Rated: 4/5 Dec 25, 2016 Full Review Renee Schonfeld Common Sense Media Coming-of-age tale has mild action and peril. Rated: 3/5 Feb 27, 2018 Full Review Jim Schembri 3AW It's pleasant, fun, funny and, of course, looks absolutely beautiful. The one thing you've got to say about the Australian Outback: it gives filmmakers great sky. Rated: 3/5 Dec 25, 2016 Full Review Rochelle Siemienowicz sbs.com.au The result is big, broad family-friendly fun; a good-looking but uneven story with moments of inspired craziness. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 22, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
