Great Film overall

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

This is a superb show. The best series I have followed in years. The actors are fantastic and do justice to the period. The cinematography is beautiful. I love the themes that are explored that help us to realise that prejudice existed both in the 1950s and now. Add to that the fact that 2 of the leading men are rather dishy and I'm definitely a fan!

What a gripping tale the last episode of the 4th season was. I can't wait to see what 2017 will bring. Absolutely great acting, Regina was such a fabulous evil person, she plays the part so well (a bit like Pat the Rat only 10 times nastier). Obviously she will be back! I want to see Sir Richard get his comeuppance too, he's a very nasty man and well played. Its amazing how far we have come as a society since then, we have more freedom now plus everything that opens and shuts. The rest of the cast are just so good. I hope Elizabeth will be back with her dashing husband and I wonder if George and Sarah will marry. I love the era too and the house is beautiful. Keep up the good work and looking forward to series 5.

After a few episodes it became obvious that this series was a soap opera of the worst type. I watched series 1-3 at which point the series was canceled ( no surprise to me) and then I began to watch the resurrection in series four.I have stopped watching Series four altogether after the first episode as it became more and more ridiculous and a waste of my time. The photography was very good and the views of the Australian countryside were excellent ( I have been to Australia) but the sets were bad and cheap . The casting was poor and the dialogue more like that of a Victorian era stage melodrama. Australians trying to sound like English nobility. Olivia and her Italian spouse, for example, were totally incompatible and unbelievable ( I cringed every time they were on the screen together) - in real life this marriage was doomed from the start. The various situations became more and more incredulous and unbelievable. Don't get hooked and waste your time!

A series that relies on Anti-Semitism to work but good old hatred and envy run a close second. Sarah Adams, Marta Dusseldorp, is returning to Australia after being away for twenty years. On the ship bringing her home, she is working as a nurse and she stops passenger James Bligh, David Berry, from killing himself. This chance encounter brings her into the life of the Bligh family. The male head of the family George Bligh, Brett Climo, forms a relationship with Sarah which brings down the wrath of his mother Elizabeth, Noni Hazlehurst, and the vicious jealously of his sister-in- law Regina Standish, Jenni Baird. While there are subplots aplenty in this high-class soap, it is watching the extreme viciousness of the females that will make most watch. There is a homosexual son, illegitimate babies, family secrets revealed, more skeletons (secrets) than closets, the aftermath of WW II, and far too many coincidences. Only thing left out, barely, is an Oedipus complex. The series also has a great musical score. Great fun overall but can get a bit tendentious at times. I have to admit at the end of season two episode four both I and my wife decided enough. A soap usually strains credulity but this series just didn't know how to stop becoming a caricature or what Sherwood Anderson would have classified as a grotesque.
