What to Know

Critics Consensus

What Tracks lacks in excitement, it more than makes up with gorgeous cinematography and Mia Wasikowska's outstanding performance.

Wasikowska strips herself down to basics to take on the tough role, and does a fine job, down to the handling of runaway bull camels. Go to Full Review

That's really what 'Tracks' comes down to: it's a film that inspires much more admiration than love. Go to Full Review

Highlighting the rawness of Australia with incredible cinematography and containing a powerful performance from Wasikowska, "Tracks" is very above-average dramatic fare. Go to Full Review

Draco R Dec 2, 2018 Whit this performance, you'd follow Wasikowska everywhere.
Finn L Oct 8, 2018 Tracks. It's available on Netflix streaming and should you watch it? Yes. It's labeled as inspiring on Netflix but I think more than anything it's thought provoking. This is yet another movie based on a true story, actual events, and real life. Sound tiresome? It's not. I promise. First ask yourself, what would not cause but instead motivate a woman to travel by foot, for what appears to be endless miles. What are we humans doing or not doing that makes us want to search, plod on, test ourselves. Luckily for us, this is one of those movies that successfully pull off the whole follow me on my trek -across the vast land- and we'll have an adventure -blueprint. As with such type of films, the film's success greatly depends on the likability of the curious traveler. Mia Wasikowska is convincing and commanding enough as Robyn Davidson to hold our attention and provoke us into asking questions about ourselves. Wasikowska has non human help on screen, from a black lab, who plays Diggity. The events unfold to demonstrate's Diggity's intelligence, purpose, and affectionate interactions with Davidson on screen. Diggity's presence makes Davidson more relatable and turns viewers into admirers. There's an interesting scene that turns the trite tale of a woman being kissed on its head. Instead of having Wasikowska having something done to her, it involves Adam Driver artfully being kissed by Wasikowska. This is wonderful insight into a person's version of finding oneself through self imposed obstacles. See more
Theodore R Sep 3, 2018 A nice Australian Film. Slow paced.
Han R Aug 30, 2018 Watch this if: You love true stories of extraordinary lives. Tracks is outstanding. Truly. It's the story of one woman's courageous, deeply touching journey across the Australian outback - that's a trip of 1,700 miles. It's a story of bravery, connection with self, resilience, and deep determination.Oh, and it's gloriously beautiful. See more
Luke L Aug 14, 2018 Beautiful in its scenery and great in its message that ordinary people can do extraordinary things.
Mar 5, 2018 As an Arab I was wondering why the F#(@ did she shoot her camels?????? Boring movie wasted time that sadly cannot be compensated.... See more
