I loved this!

Andrew Lincoln's acting was outstanding.

The music was excellent and really made me pay attention.

The storyline was spot on and I'm not sure who wrote for this but I love that they let us into Rick and Michonnes love for each other. I also weirdly appreciated the swearing, because you can't live in a world like this and not swear.

Danai Gurira never lets us down, no matter what she puts her hands to.

The spin offs have opened up lost opportunities from the original show and I'm here for it. I would love a cross over between the three to farewell the story, properly, once and for all, with absolute closure...no matter who lives or dies.

Actors were phenomenal!

Make it a part of the high school curriculum in Australia.

Not the kind of film you compare to other films, because one hasn't really been made about this topic and so readily depicted these kind of events without censoring it for fragile viewers. I hope we see more like it so the conversation changes from, "why can't you get over it?", to " let's change the date!".

For all my indigenous brothers and sisters, globally, be warned...it's brutal. I realised that the tears in my eyes that wouldn't fall and the air caught in my chest was shock.

As for Australian viewers I hope that they watch this with the same reverence as when they watch films about the slavery of African American people, the attempted and actual genocide of Native American peoples and Jewish peoples and draw a direct line to understanding, acknowledgement and respect for the indigenous peoples who have lived on this continent for up to 60,000 years.

First of all comparing this to Wind River is not a useful critique. Wind River addresses the high rate at which Indigenous Women in North America/Canada go missing around exploratory mining sites.

This movie was a look at individuals who are flawed and who eek out their own idea of justice, to exact revenge or protect others. It's not a box office hit but it is underrated.

After 20 mins I forgot all about Jamie Lannister and Grace Shelby.

I recommend watching, if you enjoy story telling and can put away preconceptions.

Ignore all of the poor reviews, most likely made by movie snobs. I rarely watch a movie more than once, but this one was easy to revisit.

This movie depicts urban combat, and is neither understated or overstated. If you want action, this is full of it. If you want intelligent storytelling, this does it. If you want characters that you can buy into, then watch this movie.

I cannot wait to see the next instalment.

I rarely rewatch a movie and when I do, it's typically been between 10 - 20 years since I last saw it. I went to the cinema to watch this and I just rewatched it this evening. I liked it more the second time. I am an avid fan of del Toro and Brolin (in that order) and I appreciate the subtlety that del Toro brought to his character, in contrast to his purpose.

I am really looking forward to the third instalment, and how they are going to tie in Elijah Rodriguez's character. I'm also interested to see if the opening of this film is going to become relevant, because it seemed disconnected to me.

Arm chair critics at it again. 😏

I think people have their knickers in a twist because the lead characters are average looking people. Perhaps if they looked like Jax in Sons of Anarchy they would have rated it higher (this reference because people are upset about their questionable morals - pfft give me a break).

Both great actors and the story line is not impossible. Most people have that one person who they wonder about.

Really looking forward to how this unfolds, because I watched the first two episodes without moving. Intrigued about his motives & I love her very human reaction to aging and feeling insecure about the process. I love her whole thing.

Agreed, no character development but they did get straight into the action, from start to finish.

There was some minor, trivial things that irritated me, for sure, but undeserved of the poopy ratings.

I was entertained, which is the purpose for watching any movie. Armchair critics can go for a swim in the Mariana Trench. This movie was good.

I loved this cast! It was hard to watch because the story was so sad. I felt especially sad for the young woman who was victim blamed by the police...so disturbing.

I would love to see these two lead characters together again.

I appreciate what she was trying to do but I think the direction was lost on how to tell this story appropriately.
