Aroview: A romantic masterpiece set in pioneering New Zealand worthy of its reputation and phenomenal success. Worth a second glance for the cast's impeccable performances, the lush cinematography, Michael Nyman's dreamy score and, most importantly, the emotionally intoxicating story.

5 stars (Exceptional) When Ada arrives on the shores of NZ for an arranged marriage, with daughter & piano, her wealthy new husband refuses to transport the piano & sells it to a neighbour, George - and things become interesting. The cinematography is simply perfection. ~GenXGirl
4 stars (Very Good) Wonderful movie, great acting, superb location, realistic, great story, fine (though repetitious) music .... all terrific .... but too long. ~Davidicus
5 stars (Exceptional) ~Milana
