OZ

Hugh Jackman has some awesome chest hair. AUSTRALIA (***) was a good flick.

I may rent this, or something, then.

If you have any interest at all in the film, see it on the big screen. Its main strength is its cinematography. Second most gorgeous movie to look at on a big screen this year behind The Fall.

I'll rent it on Blu-Ray. Or would that make a difference? I have a passing interest in the movie, but not a rush-out-to-the-theater kind.

It will definitely look great on Blu Ray. It's just that it's very sweeping and very epic from a cinematography stand point. Overall, I enjoyed the film, but it was too long and it had some dodgy CGI work. Both Jackman and Kidman provided solid movie-star performances and I apprecaited the passion that Baz brought to his story, even if it was a bit scattered. I was entertained, though, and sometimes, that's enough.

Like "Journey to the Center of the Earth" for me. Epic in a weird way, and beautiful, but empty. I still sort of fell for its charms.
