This is a generic revenge killer plot and dropped it into a 1920's colonial outback Australia setting and slowed down to a snail's pace. The problems begin with the opening scene. A group of Aboriginals bathe in a picturesque stream. A bunch of soldiers show up and start shooting them. Without any lead up or backstory it just feels like comical violence for the sake of it. Wind forward 12 years and a couple of the survivors are out for revenge. Bang bang bang everyone shoots each other. The end. Seriously the cinematography is the only good thing about this movie. But while stunning scenery makes for a great documentary, it can't save a lackluster script filled with paper thin characters and no reason to care if they survive. 3/10.
