In the harsh, unforgiving landscape of the Outback, Charlie Burns is presented with an impossible proposition by local law enforcer Captain Stanley: the only way to save younger brother Mikey from the gallows is to track down and kill Arthur, his psychotic older brother. Meanwhile Captain Stanley is desperate to shield his innocent wife from the brutalities of their new surroundings, having given up their comfortable life in England. An uneasy sense of foreboding grows as each character faces a punishing moral dilemma that leads inexorably to a devastating climax...

MPAA Rating: R Rated R for strong grisly violence, and for language.

Cast: Guy Pearce, John Hurt, Emily Watson, Ray Winstone and Danny Huston

The story was woven together as if lifted from the pages of a book. The movie has that old Spaghetti Westerns appeal: grimy and uncompromising, yet not corny. The director seems to have an eye for storytelling that does not seek to excavate a lesson from the senseless violence of the time. If there are lessons to learn at all the director doesn't seemed concerned with it as much as telling a story. And the characters and music blend together to make this film stand firm as an addition to the past greats...

No no no very very slow with very little happening then it just ends no satisfaction here

A proposition... Merely no chance of redefinition of western classic film. Brilliant and mesmerizing. A film I'll cherish for ages!
