I found Lost and Found to be a thoroughly enjoyable film. The story deals with a sensitive topic in an engaging manner - I left the film wondering how I would deal with the circumstances faced by the characters. The characters are very real and very relevant to today's society - I'm sure most of the audience can relate to the characters and circumstances of the film.
The cast is strong and their performances powerful. In particular, Brett Climo as Mackenzie Morgan stands out. His character deftly moves from soft and lovable to confused and aggressive - this allows Climo to demonstrate his broad talents - and he does this to great effect.
The musical score was also a highlight for me. The extensive use of Cello created great atmosphere.
I can understand why this film is being compared to other great Australian dramas such as Lantana and Somersault!
