I have adored every other Baz movie, so I really wanted to like this.
I also really used to like Nicole as an actress, but her acting in this was so over the top...I really thought it was supposed to be campy. Plus, I'm sorry, but her face annoys the hell out of me now - it doesn't move! Very disappointing. They really should ban actresses from using teh botox. How can you act without facial muscles?? It really stood out because Hugh's face was SO expressive. The silly lips annoy me too. She was beautiful once. *sigh*
The kid who played Nullah was fantastic. Really good. He and Hugh Jackman were the only ones who weren't outrageously caricatured characters.
And it had just about every typical Aussie actor in it you could imagine! Jack Thomson, Brian Brown, David Wenham (looking like Indiana Jones!), and a whole lot more, all overacting so much I thought it had to be deliberate!
