Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: It's a picture with the ambitions of a Billy Elliot but the execution of an August Rush.
Fresh: Broken Hill, with its picture-postcard shots of the vast Outback, looks good and fills a niche for families.
Customer Reviews
Awesome Family Movie!
This is something that speaks of determination to believe in one's dream!
I particulary enjoyed the inmates being able to have something to reach out to and be part of.
I played the orchastration twice it was so good, I wanted to stand up and shout!
Broken Hill
It was a great movie! I'm surprised that there aren't more people who know about it. It made me think of music in an entirely different way.
Great film
