The Navigator

Liked the movie very much except first twenty minutes. Even though low budget movie but new concept and brilliant filming.

First the acting is horrible, then if you can get past 30 minutes of a movie maker insulting every ounce of your intelligence then this movie(and I use the word "Movie" loosely) may be for you. I couldn't get past thirty minutes of it and I was giving it every opportunity to "Bounce Back". I found nothing in the first thirty minutes that could or would justifying me to go any further. Poor acting, poor script, and the cinematography could only be described as Go Pro at it's not so best. Sorry I just don't get "Movies" like this. Personally I think that a movie should give the viewer enough in the first ten minutes to get them interested and this one failed miserably to do that in the first thirty minutes. I understand that everyone needs to start somewhere, maybe a sitcom, short children s stories would be a better starting point in trying to captivate a viewers attention for these guys.

This is NOT a great film but its a great first film for a director. Main actor is ok, needs more acting classes but the concept is good and the film holds your attention. Some good cast members in there and not a bad story overall. Give this one a chance as its better than alot of other Aussie film, His follow up - The System shows he gets better and seeing the trailer for his 3rd film - Risen - he will be known as one of Australia's formidable directors.
