The Flood - Melodie der Rache

There was a story worth telling in this, but it got lost in confusion and cliche's.

This could have been so much better. The story was quite good, but could have been told in half the time. The rest of the movie was padded out with pointless fantasy/dream sequences which added nothing at all to the story. It was also interspersed with random pop-type songs, totally out of keeping with the on-screen action or the time period setting. The action scenes and violence were over-the-top and unbelievable to the point where I thought the Director was trying to be Australia's answer to Tarantino!

Ok story showing atrocities committed but acting and story fail towards the end.

Biggest disappointment is the indigenous language, costume, hair design and makeup which is very misleading of the time period.

Perhaps the story is better suited to an international audience who are ignorant of certain factuals.

Good movie , Great dedication to the stolen children from the aboriginal community , To understand this film you need to understand the aboriginal culture . Don't go by FilmMcCool reviews him/her doesn't give many good reviews , You need to see for yourself to understand the film

We wish the producers had not embellished the story - a very important story of awful racial discrimination and persecution - with a seemingly endless mash-mash of dreams and fantasies switching back and forth with "reality" so that it became totally confusing. The gun battles were somewhat ridiculous and while it was good to see the persecutors being killed off, it then became confusing as to whether or not that had happened.

They missed a great opportunity to more correctly portray the dreadful injustices experienced by our Indigenous population in the mid 20th century.

Perhaps some other producer may eventually take the same story line and make it far more accurately show the experiences at that particular period.
