Great movie! Combined suspense, a love story, history and just a little humor thrown in for good measure. The acting was great-made it thoroughly believable and the period costumes, ships, backdrops, etc. felt authentic. Never felt "bogged down" - it moved right along. I completely enjoyed the movie and am looking forward to a cold rainy night when I can curl up in front of a fire and throw it in the DVD again!
September 11, 2008Thoroughly enjoyed the movie, Would recommend it to anyone who is an Alex O'Loughlin fan.

This movie was very well written & the actors were great. I have always been a big fan of Alex O'Loughlin so I was very interested in seeing his earlier work. As usual I was not disappointed - I would recommend this movie to anyone. It was good seeing Alex O'Loughlin performing again - hope to see him in even more movies in the future.
September 2, 2008I found this movie at Ross and bought it because it seemed interesting and I've seen Romola in Daniel Deronda and thought she was a good actress. This movie was very suspenseful and interesting. It is very graphic though and has scenes I cringed at. That makes you all the more want them to escape. I agree with another reviewer in that you are routing for her but at times don't totally agree with her methods. I was curious to how historically accurate the movie was after watching and read about her online. I saw that they did add some things for the sake of drama to the story and changed various details. I didn't think they should've changed those details just to make the movie more interesting because the real story is interesting also. I think it was very worth watching but its one of the kind I watch once and am finished with because I don't often enjoy movies with much violence or open sex which this has. I was glued to watching this till the end though and even couldn't help but shed a few tears near the ending which I never do. It has some what of a bittersweet ending. Overall worth seeing, I think the acting was great! I'm thinking of maybe finding a book about her now to learn more about the real Mary.

I really enjoyed this historical movie filmed in Australia. The story was well written and the acting was superb. Of course Alex O'Loughlin was wonderful in his role at Will Bryant. I bought the movie because of him and found that I really liked everything about it.
