Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It really does break your heart that these aboriginal girls were kidnapped by the "whites" to be trained as slaves. It's like the African Americans being treated poorly by the whites. Really this world is corrupted as hell by worrying about where people grew up to be. Like both the aboriginals and the African Americans are still being treated poorly today. It's too bad during the movie, the two sisters never saw the third girl again after she was taken away. I wonder what did happen to her? At least the two girls were reunited with the mother and grandmother. Wonder where's the father? Lol. Seriously those movie is full of questions in your head!Really good movie especially Deborah Mailman from "The Sapphires" being involved in this!

The most disturbing thing about this movie is that it is true.Thankfully it relays a story that needs to be told about the Australian Government's policy of taking half-caste children from their Aboriginal mothers and sending them a thousand miles away to what amounts to indentured servitude in 1931 Molly, Daisy, and Grace (two sisters and a cousin who are 14, 10, and 8) arrive at their Gulag and promptly escape, under Molly's lead. For days they walk north, following a fence that keeps rabbits from settlements, eluding a native tracker and the regional constabulary.The film is surprisingly captivating considering that very little happens during the journey and the lead actress Everlyn Sampi who plays Molly is especially good. It is hard to believe that all the child actors and extras had never acted before this film.I would highly recommend this as a must watch movie.

This movie is about the aboriginal girls Gracie, Daisy and Molly, and it's a true story. They are from the "half caste" generation, also called "the stolen generation" Their home is named Jigalong and the kids in the movie were taken by force from their families, far away from Jigalong to Moon River where they are going to be taught to be servants. The girls managed to escape the camp together, and they walked all the way from Moon River to Jigalong, and they follower the rabbit proof fence. Everybody was looking for them, and they were in the newspapers every day.The minister in charge of the half-caste people was Mr. Neville. He did everything he could do to bring the girls back to the camp again, but he failed.The girls walked continuous for about 9 weeks and they had to fight through the rough landscape of Australia's desert, without food or water. Sometimes, the camera was filming like we were a crocodile crawling towards them. I liked that, because it felt like I was in the movie.What I liked about this movie was that it is a true story, and two of the girls, Molly and Daisy, are still alive. The ladies are 80 years now. But when they were younger, they were three strong girls who just wanted to go home, because they missed their families. And they managed to walk the 1500 miles to Jigalong, and that is really impressive! The actors acted very convincing. I would like to recommend this movie for people who are interested in history, and people who just like to watch a good movie.

Characters:Molly: She is the oldest girl of three and Daisy's sister. She is 14- years old.Gracie: She is Molly and Daisy's cousin. She is the middle one. She is 10-years old.Daisy: She is the youngest one. She is 8-years old.The film is a 2002 Australian drama film. It is directed by Philip Noyce. Rabbit-Proof Fence is based on the book "Follow the Rabbit-Proof Fence" written by Doris Pilkington Garimara. It is based on a true story. The film follows the Aboriginal girls as they walk for nine weeks along 1500 miles (2400 km) of the Australian rabbit-proof fence to return to their community at Jigalong, while being pursued by a white authority figure and an Aboriginal tracker. The soundtrack to the film is called "Long Walk Home: Music from the Rabbit-Proof Fence", is made by a man named Peter Gabriel.This is in Western Australia during the 1930s. The film begins in the remote town of Jigalong where 14-year old Molly, and 8-year old Daisy, lives with their mother, grandmother and their 10-year old cousin Gracie. Thousands of miles away, the "protector" of the Aborigines, A.O. Neville, signs an order to take the girls to his re-education camp. Neville calls people like these girls "half-castes", they have one white and one aboriginal parent. Neville says that the aboriginal peoples of Australia are a danger to themselves, and that the "half-castes" must be bred out of existence. The girls are taken from Jigalong to the camp at Moore River. Half-castes that are of a certain age live at the camps and are taught to become servants for the whites living in Australia. The three girls, Molly, Gracie and Daisy decide to escape from the camp and walk home to Jigalong. The Aboriginal tracker, Moodoo, is called in to find the girls and bring them back to the camp. They evade Moodoo several times, receiving aid from strangers in the harsh Australian country they travel. After a long walk they find the rabbit-proof fence and knows that they can follow it north to Jigalong. Neville figures out their strategy and sends Moodoo and a local constable, Riggs, after them.I think this was a great film with facts about differences between people and what people do to other people. Here the white people want to eradicate the aborigines, and "help" the half-castes. I will recommend this film, because it is very interesting. But I will not recommend it for a cozy evening.
