MCT:May 9, 2008Have you ever had seen a film that was a critical darling, watch it for yourself and find you wondering what they saw in the film that you appear to be missing? That's the experience I had while watching this one long awkward moment of a film.
My biggest problem with the film was the lack of empathy I had for the characters. Especially the character played by Abbie Cornish. Does this girl know how to live around people or was she raised by wolves? Does she have any sense of restraint or an understanding of the concept of consequences? If the film's best defense is that it's showing what the average teen goes through, the making of mistakes and all, I'm glad I wasn't an average teen because some of her actions border on downright stupid.
And was it really necessary to have the leading male swear so nonchalantly? I'm not a prude and I've seen Tarantino films so I'm used to frequent cursing but it doesn't work when you just use it in a normal tone. Without a hint of anger or fear or any other real emotion, it comes across as forced.
This movie just angered me in so many ways, I honestly don't see how people could be like that in real life. Yes, they make mistakes but a lot of them do seem to learn something from them and have better interaction skills. Very easily one of the worst films I have, and ever will have, seen. -
MCT:March 21, 2008I was surprised by this movie, in what it had to say and in what it had to examine. I didn't expect much at first & then I expected less, but it had something more. Bravo!

MCT:December 27, 2007Love can turn you upside-down.
Seeking work in the snowfields of Jindabyne, Heidi (Abbie Cornish), aged 16, meets a sympathetic motel owner, Irene (Lynette Curran), who offers her a place to stay. In her naive manner, Heidi meets Joe (Sam Worthington), a wealthy farmer's son. Clinging onto what the relationship could possibly offer her, Heidi gives herself to Sam, only to be disappointed when her feelings are not reciprocated. To overcome her internal struggles, confusing sexual intimacy with love, Heidi seeks to respond to her past and to the hurt she has caused others.
