What an amazing actress Kate Winslet is, and she does a great Australian Accent... And this is a well worth watch very well done Aussie Movie....

The first 30 minutes I wondered why Kate Winslet chose to perform in that movie, then came the mid part and it was excellent.

Both warms and breaks your heart, this charming small town tale takes a darkly comedic take on tragedy and wins at every turn. Strengthened by strong performances from everyone in this great cast (I mean, it made me enjoy a Liam Hemsworth performance, that has to mean something), The Dressmaker feels like a storybook fantasy brought to the real world.

A very uneven film, veering from offbeat comedy to mystery to melodrama. I enjoyed the film but was frustrated by it in equal measure. Its a patchwork quilt of a movie with terrific performances from Kate Winslet and Judy Davis.

> Home is where the vengeance is.

A stylish Aussie revenge-comedy that is adapted from a novel of the same name. Just superbly built screenplay on a tragedy that occurred some time back, but the movie reveals it only in the third act. About a woman who arrives in a small town where she was born a More

Utterly superb! I wasn't expecting such greatness.

'The Dressmaker', to put it bluntly, is quality! It has a pulse and then some, I love the feel of the film throughout - with all its quirkiness, silliness and straight up brilliantness. It all starts off very strongly, though I did then More
