I missed the original movie, but this series caught my attention from a year studying abroad in Australia. The scenery is beautiful. The story had me looking up different events in Australian history, which to me is always a good thing when a show draws a viewer to research the actual history.
Loved Nicole Kidman & Hugh Jackman in their roles. Bryan Brown & David Wenham do a great job at making you dislike their characters. David Gulpilil and. Brandon Williams are wonderful in showing aspects of Aboriginal culture. The actors all do a great job at bringing their characters to life.
I enjoyed the cinematography and most of the musical accompaniment. All in all a very enjoyable watch.

It's not as good as you would have hoped. It's got a lot of Indiana Jones type action, storyline and production. Too much Hollywood in this and it's too bad. Predictable bad guys and of course the indigenous characters are highly moral and God like. White man bad. It's probably good for fans of the Hallmark Channel since there is an obvious Love Story. The rough cowboy and the sophisticated lady. Yawn fest. It looks very saturated and there is a lot of CGI and melodramatic music. The intro music and credits music is possible the worst thing about this series. You'll want to move quickly off the credits to make it stop.
Disclaimer: I have only watched the first episode, which premiered at SXSW Sydney.
Faraway Downs is a masterful retelling of the 2008 film "Australia". In this adaptation, a young Brandon Walters is given more time to shine as brightly, if not more so, than the illustrious Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman.
While paying homage to the spirit of the original "Australia" from 2008, this rendition strives forward in narrative form and stylistic feature. It's a refreshing take on a well-loved tale, breathing new life into the story.
What immediately captures my attention is the exquisite cinematography. The film makes brilliant use of the 600 kilometres of footage originally captured during the production of the 2008 film, resulting in awe-inspiring visuals that skilfully weave together an uplifting presentation of place and people. The landscape becomes a character in its own right, enhancing the overall storytelling experience.
This time around, Faraway Downs takes a unique perspective, focusing more on Nullah's view, an exceptional portrayal by Brandon Walters. This shift in emphasis introduces a fresh and captivating narrative lens, providing an enticing glimpse into Nullah's storytelling.
Faraway Downs is a captivating and innovative retelling of a beloved classic. With its dedication to portraying the significance of place and people, combined with an exciting new perspective, this adaptation promises a visually stunning and thought-provoking cinematic journey. I look forward to the upcoming episodes to see how this story unfolds.

Outback Legacy is an engaging and visually stunning film set in the rugged landscapes of Australia. This captivating tale weaves together themes of love, loss, and resilience, while showcasing the breathtaking beauty of the Australian outback.
The film centers around Sarah, a strong-willed aristocrat, who finds herself facing numerous challenges after the untimely death of her husband. The plot takes an interesting turn when a conniving baron plots to take over her valuable cattle ranch. Determined to protect her land and legacy, Sarah forms an unlikely alliance with a skilled and charismatic cattle drover, Jackman, played brilliantly by Hugh Jackman.
One of the movie's strengths lies in its well-developed characters. Sarah, portrayed by a talented actress, brings a refreshing sense of independence and determination, defying the societal norms of her time. Jackman's character is equally compelling, as his rugged charm and expertise in cattle droving provide both a romantic and action-packed subplot.
The chemistry between Sarah and Jackman is palpable, adding depth and emotion to the story. Their partnership not only creates an engaging dynamic but also serves as a symbol of unity, as they face various obstacles together.
The cinematography is a true standout in this film, capturing the vastness and raw beauty of the Australian outback. Sweeping panoramic shots of the countryside, combined with intimate close-ups, create a sense of immersion that transports the audience into Sarah's world. The attention to detail in capturing the authenticity of the Australian landscape is commendable.
The pacing of the film is well-balanced, with a mix of intense action sequences and quieter character-driven moments. The story unfolds gradually, allowing the audience to become invested in the characters and their struggles. While some plot twists may be predictable, the execution is engaging enough to maintain interest.
Outback Legacy also explores themes of gender equality and the power of community. Sarah's determination to protect her ranch is not just a fight for her own survival but also a fight against patriarchal dominance. The film subtly touches on the social dynamics of the era, highlighting the challenges faced by women in maintaining their independence.
Despite its strengths, Outback Legacy falls short in some areas. The antagonist, the baron, is portrayed somewhat one-dimensionally, lacking depth and complexity. Additionally, the resolution of certain conflicts feels rushed, leaving some loose ends untied.
Overall, Outback Legacy is an engaging.

Please note - this review is from a fan of the movie 'Australia' and is expressing my point of view:
Australia is one of my fav movies to watch from time to time.
However, Far-away Downs is my new 'Australia'. Watching faraway downs, it gave the story more detail and explain the scenes in more depth that the movie doesn't show.
I'm not gonna spoil the show as it needs to be watched. Every episode draws you to the next one until the end. I like how every episode had time to explain more and the last episode esp wasn't rushed.
The true events of our country and it's history from that time are shown in a careful, respectful manner esp the subject about the stolen generation.
Baz, every movie, tv show etc to date are done with care, heart, research, attention to detail for the subject your directing to your audience.
Can't wait to see the next project :)
