Jindabyne (2006)
Another dreary self important Australian mess.

Warning: Spoilers
I really wanted to like this film...but ultimately found it a slow, self important, tedious, offensive mess. It's as though the producers tried to tick every PC box to get film Australia funding. (Lesbians, Aboriginals, all the white men are evil) PAHH-LEEEZE. Not a single likable or sympathetic character in the whole sorry charade. I gave up caring for anyone in the film and started hoping the 'serial killer' would start picking them off.. just to relieve the tedium.

What could have been an interesting film ( good premise, great locations, strong cast) simply get's mired in it's own bloated sense of self importance.
