I wont rate it with stars because i honestly dont know what to rate it but this film is trippy. On 1 hand i applaud the director for trying to highlight the brutal and racist history of the uk invading Australia unapollogetically and offering viewpoints from both sides but i think the number and length of the rape scenes were so unnecesary & I was surprised to learn the director was a woman. Theres many triggering scenes but if not for so many rape scenes,i'd otherwise reccomend this film.

Both daunting in its length and unflinching in its brutality, "The Nightingale", the second directorial effort from "The Babadook" director, Jennifer Kent, tells an effective, if occasionally tedious, tale of rape, murder, racism, empathy, and revenge set against the backdrop of British colonialism in 1825 Tasmania. Make no mistake, the events of this movie can be very hard to watch and its length can feel unnecessary, but strong performances from the primary cast make this harrowing look at a dark time in Australian history worth seeing through to the end.

1 tiny scene (2 seconds) ruined this entire movie. Really wasn't necessary and would have been best left on the editing room floor . Sick bastrds
