Strangerland Ratings & Reviews
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
STRANGERLAND is one of the worst kind of bad films, in that it presents itself to be such a great film--takes itself way too seriously--all the while being an incomprehensible mess.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
... the melodrama is overheated more than the sweltering setting.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Strangerland runs out of gas, leaving us with a couple of final "Forget You" (shall we say) moments. Thanks. Thanks for nothing.
Paste Magazine
Christine N. Ziemba
Despite all of its well-intentioned, high-minded aspirations, Strangerland is a hodgepodge that plods along at a torpid pace.
Salt Lake Tribune
Sean P. Means
Drenching the movie in so much mood is rough on the pacing, and there's a pointed lack of urgency to the search.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Director Kim Farrant goes for a feeling that's as harsh, unforgiving, and wild as the land she lets the camera linger on, and it's the right idea when handling the potential melodrama of the material.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
A slow, opaque Australian psychologicsal drama.
Entertainment Weekly
Joe McGovern
Kidman's best performances have often been as grieving moms (Dead Calm, The Others, Rabbit Hole) and here she provides the flaccid movie's sole flash of daring and unpredictability.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
Director Kim Farrant's debut feature is beautifully shot and offers some powerful, well-acted moments from a strong cast, but it's just relentlessly dreary.
Detroit News
Tom Long
It certainly provides Kidman with some meaty, twisted material. But the film abandons the viewer in the end, leaving the audience as lost as those kids.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
"Strangerland" ... strains credulity with its secrets and revelations to facilitate its surprises.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The nagging sense sets in that Farrant and screenwriters Fiona Seres and Michael Kinirons are after something arty with their story, and the movie can't ambiguously end fast enough.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"Strangerland" is an uneven but often mesmerizing film with a mood of quiet dread; you sense that something's lurking behind that dust, but you don't know what.
Variety
Justin Chang
The narrative machinery proves no more convincing than the underlying subtext.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The brooding and emotional prickliness gets overwhelming.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Director Kim Farrant paces her story deliberately, building up a heavy, almost oppressive tone, and Kidman takes advantage of it, burrowing into a complex and unglamorous character.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
It's hard to get over the movie's haunting atmosphere. It may be just another story of kids in peril, but this one's particularly hard to shake.
AV Club
Jesse Hassenger
Kidman clarifies as much as she can, and for a while the movie seems to be on her wavelength. Eventually, though, its mysteries get lost in the shadows.
Slant Magazine
Carson Lund
Strangerland operates as if under the presumption that the sketchiness of its various insights will be smoothed over.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
The film remains stranded in a sort of genre no man's land.
