Kevin L @Lakeman Jan 24 Strong work by the director, writer, and cast. Very pertinent themes here of indigenous peoples being still systemically impoverished, disenfranchised, and refused justice as opposed to what the experience is for the racial/cultural majority. 3.3 stars See more Alain E @AlainE Jan 23 An exercise in "progressive " stereotypes. The cop who reopens the case is a tough loner, covered in tattoos. At the end of the day he relaxes shooting some heroin as I assume every reasonable police officer does. When his original unassuming Toyota gets damaged he is almost left without transportation EXCEPT there is an old huge Chevrolet to complete his equipment. The rest of the story and the other characters are as naturalistic. I wasted 47 minutes. There are 61 more to go. Good luck!

Did a good job of showing how bleak it was living in an almost deserted mining town. Simon Baker looks bad with his hair cut off. See more Les N Aug 12 A good old Aussie movie about the about the Outback. No good for yanks unless it has a planned start, finish and ending. See more Peter F 11/29/2024 Those people who have criticized this movie as too slow, B&W, without tension, simply are unable to be attuned to what underlies the film but is given away in the title- Limbo. The cop is in limbo, the townfolk, the killer when finally identified. And certainly the family torn apart by the event twenty years past. And really, the whole aboriginal culture is portrayed in stasis and fragmentation. For the cinematography alone this deserves praise, for its cadence, raw sparseness, and most of all its portrayals. The photography reminded me of David Byrnes' 'True Stories', though miles apart in content, of course. See more Read all reviews
