Nice movie, very enjoyable to watch. All of the actors were outstanding and the little boy Nala was enough to make your heart melt. Both Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman gave Oscar winning performances. | | | | Reply | | |      amshaspandanman says @ Wednesday - December 03,2008
I will say just a "outstanding movie" of the year. This movie is well written, directed and put together. A great epic romance that has the feel of the old time movies with a Australian twist. | | | dfgfd replies @ Friday - December 19,2008

It's a magnificent film. It is well crafted by director Baz Luhrmann. Marvelous acting by Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman and Brandon Walters. It is really an entertaining movie. | | | | Reply | | |      ruin08 says @ Wednesday - December 03,2008
This movie is really a good movie and true entertainment. The story is written brilliantly. I enjoyed the performance of all the artists. It took me to another world and time and I felt better. | | | | Reply | | |      divine_knl says @ Wednesday - December 03,2008
One of the best movies I have seen in recent days. The story line, the visuals were outstanding. It was spectacular from beginning to end. Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman performed brilliantly. | | | | Reply | | |
