I confess, I was willingly suckered into it. Go to Full Review
Eddie Cockrell Variety Jan 24, 2017
As an original Boys Own adventure, the film succeeds in painting a vividly nostalgic, if necessarily episodic, picture of an old-fashioned European Australian outback experience of sturdy men in a hard land. Go to Full Review

The coming-of-age elements pull it into a softer, less contrived and more affecting space, which is ultimately where this very rewarding journey resides. Go to Full Review

Draco R Jul 6, 2018 A perfect family movie about a boy and a dog. It takes place at a cattle station in the Australian outback. RT rated it 100% but audience scores were only 65%. I enjoyed it's sweet appeal. See more

George R Mar 3, 2018 Doesn't really work as a prequel but otherwise a cute feel-good family movie. Loved the dog. Beautiful scenery. Great cast. Jason Isaacs is a very underrated actor. While Levi Miller is surely going to be a leading man one day. See more
