Kangaroo

The Australian Outback is stunning on the big screen, and the baby joeys are impossible not to love. The movie has a lot of heart and yet it was comedic.

It's the kind of film that leaves you smiling, maybe even teary-eyed, and it's perfect if you and your family want something wholesome and easy to watch.

Kangaroo is a fairly light-hearted movie produced in classic Australian style with a degree of tongue-in-cheek. The cinematography with a touch of computer generated imagery for the man versus kangaroo scenes (that is not overdone) is excellently done. It is a family safe movie and highly recommended.

A classic take shot beautifully and cast perfectly, this movie highlights what makes Australia special and the power and draw of the bush.

The acting is first rate and the cinematography stunning.

Anyone who gives a poor rating to this is either jealous of its beauty or plain cynical. It's uplifting.

Kangaroo is an absolute triumph of Australian cinema. From the very first frame, the breathtaking and rugged beauty of Australia shines through - vast open landscapes, raw outback vistas, and uniquely Australian scenery that feels both wild and intimate. It's not just a backdrop; it's a character in its own right.

The performances are equally stunning. The cast of Australian actors prove once again that they are among the very best in the world, bringing incredible depth, authenticity, and emotion to every scene. Each role feels lived-in and real, drawing you deeply into the story.

At its heart, Kangaroo tells a powerful and moving story based on true events. It's both deeply human and universally relatable, a narrative that grips you, inspires you, and stays with you long after the credits roll.

This film is not only a showcase of Australia's natural beauty and artistic talent but also a reminder of the power of storytelling done right. A must-see - unforgettable from beginning to end.

A delightful surprise, Kangaroo Sanctuary is the feel-good movie of the year. It's a film that will have you laughing one moment and tearing up the next. While it might lean into some familiar clichés, the brilliant writing of the script elevates it into something truly special.

The movie's heart is the unlikely friendship that blossoms between the two leads. Ryan Corr brings an adorable charm to his role as Chris, but it's in a deeply emotional scene mourning the loss of a mother kangaroo that he truly shines and won me over. However, the film's undeniable standout is Lily Whiteley. In her breakout role as Charlie, she's simply luminous and proves to be the true heart of the movie. I can't wait to see her in future roles.

Much like the film We Bought a Zoo, Kangaroo Sanctuary is inspired by real events. This heartwarming story is based on the famous kangaroo sanctuary in Alice Springs, adding a layer of authenticity that makes the journey even more compelling.
