LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

kerremtug The movie was so boring, I couldn't even laugh at how bad it was. Long Weekend constantly made me try to care about the relationship of the two main characters but failed at it terribly. Acting was fine scenery was fine that's about it. Not much happened in the movie expect for the couple fighting and the main character Peter keep being a dick to the nature and the movie doesn't explain itself and just gives the "that's what happens when you mess with Mother Nature!" Felt pretty dissapointed sorry.

TheBlueHairedLawyer When you see the plot, right away you know what to expect. Environmentalist hippie propaganda mixed up with horror and a bad marriage, making for a very strange but easily predictable story.I don't recommend watching this; besides its dopey "respect mother nature" plot, it also has bad soundtrack and lousy acting to boot. This is just another fictional alarmist story to blame us for "slowly killing the planet". I love polluting things on purpose and I don't see the earth collapsing, I do not need to hear about the earth when I go to watch a movie.The 1978 one wasn't very good, but avoid this one, it's not worth your time.

preppy-3 An unhappy couple in Australia--Peter (Jim Caviezl) and Carla (Claudia Karvan)--decide to go camping one long weekend in a remote wooded area near the ocean. Along the way Peter (accidentally) hits a kangaroo and casually shoots at birds within range. They argue and he wanders around a lot with his shirt off. That's about it until an abrupt change of events during the last 30 minutes.This film has goos acting by the leads, Caviezl looks good with his shirt off, has some gorgeous cinematography, nice music...but that's it. This is pushed as being a horror film but it's really just a domestic drama with horror kicking in during the last 30 minutes. The horror itself isn't particularly scary and doesn't make much sense. All this has going for it is acting, scenery and music--nothing else. I give it a 4 just for that.

festeredblacklungs I watched this movie late one night when I couldn't find anything better and the thing that seems to stick out to me the most about it is, it's utterly confusing.The synopsis on the movie read that it was about a couple going camping and suffering nature's wrath, and yet they seemed to be much more dangerous to nature. I should read off the list of offenses. They:Ran over a kangaroo, Sprayed an ant's nest with poison Shot at some ducks, Shot a dugong, Smashed an eagle's egg, Ran over a crab, Shot at an owl, Left a dog to die a slow death in a car.The list of Nature's supposed offenses:Attack by an eagle (just a few scratches), Biting ants (no allergic reaction either), Invaded campsite for food.Otherwise, the couple got lost, was constantly fighting with each other, discovered a murder-suicide, and spent part of the time paranoid about a dead dugong supposedly making its way towards them. And to do what, exactly? Was something supposed to be scary about doogans besides the way they look? Aren't these the same animals that are dying off based on slowness and their own stupidity? Aren't these the same creatures known as sea cows because they live on sea grass?The couple dies in the movie, but natural causes had nothing to do with it. The wife is shot in the throat by a spear of completely unknown origin, a metal spear, by the way, and the husband is ran over by a truck as soon as he finds an actual road. None of the suspenseful moments had decent pay off and some were just down right senseless. It seems to me that nature wasn't anything but a victim of this annoying couple and their endless quibbling from beginning to end and they themselves were just victims of pathetic irony.I just don't get it. Maybe there was something I missed that went completely over my head. Or maybe the screen writer failed to make his or her actual point.
