GamerTab That was an excellent one.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

theenergizerbunny I was completely engulfed during each episode. Definitely a travesty that they did not continue this series. The casting, acting, and story line was spot on.

mvenkata_ramesh This series may not be a good one for the people who are in to the history, it may be misleading to those who don not have idea on history, but it gives an idea about History of Australia for those not in to history.Apart form that, it is not always possible to show "as it is" the history while reproducing the Movies and Shows. It is required to deviate a little bit but not too much, and introduce the romance, fun, foreplays, etc., bits to make it more entertaining. Other wise no will watch and no one will sponsor. One need to understand that.I have watched first season, to me it went well... Actions, Story is perfect, maintained Thrill & Kick through out the show. The Good script is always the one, which goes beyond the imagination of the viewers, that is it, it has got and it is more than enough to get 8 points. Sad it is cancelled, I don't see any reason to cancel this show.

sue-payne I absolutely loved this and by the final episode the tension was unbearable because these were characters I really got involved with. The drama was clever in showing that most characters had good and bad sides. Major Ross - the "villain" was ruthless but clearly had a softer side (and was gorgeous too in my opinion!). Such an interesting character and a great performance by Joseph Millson. Julian Rhind-Tutt, who I've always thought of as a wimpy sort of man, was a revelation here as tough convict Tommy and the love between him and his woman in this was heartbreakingly real. Their friendship with Russell Tovey's character was brilliantly played. So many great performances, too many to mention. An excellent drama, best thing on TV for a while. The emotions in the finale were almost too much to bear.

portobellolinda This sounded promising and so I began watching the first episode. I say 'began' because 15 minutes later, I'd switched off. Its truly one of the worst things I've seen aired. The characterization is hollow and, whilst Jimmy is a good earthy writer, his style of prosaic musings doesn't work here. The dialogue is stilted and the acting truly bad. Its miscast as one can see when a 20 something with highlights drifts past in her gown as though getting ready for a commercial for shampoo. The flogging scene was utter tosh. Badly scripted and offering no realism. Actually, its almost an insult to the intelligence of the viewer to air nonsense like this. Lets leave the historical accounts of this episode of history to those who know something about casting, filming, direction et cetera. The script is not worthy of a first year creative writing student ( they'd get a D...) its contrived and sheer unadulterated hogwash of the most boring kind.
