Brief Synopsis – A young detective in the Australian Outback is given a case involving a young girl’s homicide in the middle of nowhere.

My Take on it – I found this movie to be pretty good because it was thought out and scripted properly.

It isn’t fast paced but actually purposely plotted out slowly to give us a better feeling and understanding as to how the world in the Outback works.

I liked the realism depicted throughout especially during the final shootout where not every shot hits its intended target making things quite tense.

Bottom Line – Interesting mystery thriller that is slow moving but still compelling throughout. Great shootout at the end! Recommended!

Rating – Globe Worthy
