2 stars (Good Try) Slowly paced and maybe correctly so for the period setting but it gives you more time to take in the well photographed gorgeous New Zealand scenery. ~Tubbs
4 stars (Very Good) Beautifully filmed - captures the feeling of the area. intercut shots of Australia & Otago divert; the light is very different there. Alicia Vikander is wonderful but the movie is let down by a creaky script.Interesting extras. Recomended overall. ~Sandy
