The Dunes

The start will draw you in, but soon you will find yourself stuck, deciding whether watching this film was a good idea at all. It continues to suck you down deeper to new levels of bad acting and plot turns. Stay on the safe trails and away from dodgy shortcut films like this.

Ridiculous acting that is tedious and painful to watch. Unbelievable situations (especially the attending police) make this another cringeworthy film that Australia seems to be producing lately.

My first EVER review here as I think it's all to easy to criticise another person's art.

However, I felt compelled to here as I'm tired of seeing Australian talent & great foundations for an excellent movie ruined by outdated and overused clichés, such as police attending scene as mentioned. The continuity and flow of the story is also where our movies fail ! Why ? More like a cut & paste scrap book from a primary school student. We're far more capable and able than that.

So, after a promising start and holding of breath, sure enough, we were let down again.

Certainly not due to the acting or rather casting, just the corner cutting & lack of vision & adherence to clichés again letting us down.

Query, does the director & producers watch their work the way we viewers, who the product is made for, do ?? Can they not see the shortcomings of their work, the way we do ?

A shame, as they had all the elements there to make an excellent movie. Dare I say one to rival the US who churn this stuff out like McDonalds does with burgers.

I do thank all the actors & crew involved for their efforts. You deserved a better end result.

Cool little indie film . Loved seeing the Australian country side in this manner . Nice slow burn thriller with great acting from the leads . Didn't see the end coming . Not perfect , but definitely worth a watch .

The Dunes literally gave me chills. The actor playing William Night was so convincing, every time he came on the screen I was silent. Brilliant performances by all involved and I'd watch again when I have friends over. A good weekend movie.
