Reviews

Los Angeles Times -
Director Seet’s gorgeously filmed production proves to resonate as much today as it did 40-plus years ago.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Even those unfamiliar with the tale will find it charming and moving, and, as is so often the case with Australian films, the scenery can't be beat.
|
|
Variety -
This version of Storm Boy, directed by excellent Aussie small-screen helmer Shawn Seet, has the emotional heft and visual splendor to win the hearts of domestic and international family audiences.
|
|
Arizona Republic -
Director Shawn Seet’s film is surprisingly sweet and moving.
|
|
Movie Nation -
It’s not a thrill-a-minute piece of children’s entertainment, but winning performances by young Finn Little, by Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush as the adult “boy,” and by Trevor Jamieson and Morgana Davies, lift it.
