Sorry, but this movie is not worth your time to watch. Sooo slow & the story line is awful. Ending is even worse! Don't waste your time like I did!

To be honest when I first saw this advertised I wasn't really interested as it's not my usual type of movie (being a SciFi/Fantasy nut) until I noticed that Myles Pollard (ex McLeod's Daughters) was one of the lead roles and as I've always been impressed with Myles I thought it would be worth watching after all, so I brought it.

Wow! What a powerful film! Let me say it's NOT for children, as this is a story about survival in the desert without water and has some rather 'dark' moments included. The scenery is absolutely stunning and it shows what can be achieved with a good compelling script while only using a "simple" set and very few cast. I quickly found myself drawn to these people and wanting the best for them as though they were friends (and not simply actors in a movie) whilst glued to my chair for almost the entire length of the film. Very well filmed, written, produced etc with a terrific cast. I do recommend it and I even "WANT" to watch it again (which is unusual for me). Well done everyone. :)

Thirst contains truly beautiful scenery and a captivating story.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, it was such an original storyline that captured many emotions and a range of themes.

The backdrop of the movie would have been challenging to film in, but the result is just brilliant. So glad to find an Australian movie of this quality.

I was left thinking about the movie for some days afterward, it's the kind of story that makes you think beyond watching it.

I'd definitely recommend watching the movie, like I said, it really is great to see an Australian film of this caliber.

It has a few flaws, some will find it boring or drawn out. It's one of those movies that's not everyone's cup of tea and certainly will never to be a Hollywood hit, yet will get a cult following by those who love a unique Australian move.
