This sprawling movie, taking place during World War II and obviously set in Australia, tells the tale of a couple (Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman) who drive a couple thousand cattle across the country. As they travel, they witness the bombing of Darwin by the Japanese forces.
It looks good but Nicole Kidman is on screen. She has a batting average that is on par with Dan Ackroyd and Pauly Shore - Bewitched, The Golden Compass, The Others, Eyes Wide Shut, Practical Magic, The Invasion, Billy Bathgate, Batman Forever, and on and on. You have to wash your hands after you handle her resume for fear of contracting E. coli. Having Kidman in the production is not a good sign. I'm hoping she's there simply because she's pretty and Australian.
Make your own judgement, check out the trailer below.
