Critics Consensus

Jindabyne's disparate themes may not quite cohere, but the film features fine performances from Linney and Byrne.

3/4
The movie's remaining revelations build slowly into a set of surprisingly powerful emotional beats. Go to Full Review

3/5
The frustration here is that none of this leads anywhere. Perhaps that is the point, that some mysteries are never solved, but Jindabyne could give us a little more to work with. Go to Full Review
Peter Bradshaw Guardian Jun 2, 2007
5/5
The movie is beautifully shot, and succeeds in being deeply disturbing and mysterious, with richly achieved nuances of characterisation. I have seen it two or three times now, and each time it gets better. Go to Full Review

3.5/4
Subtle and understated, a meditation on morality, mortality and murder that escalates into a small emotional powerhouse. Go to Full Review
