    An infectiously joyful Australian Aboriginal musical.

    Enjoyable and forgettable in equal measure, the lovably cheesy Australian movie Bran Nue Dae is a must for children bitten by the musical-revival fever, for all who heart American Idol, and for anyone who came of age in the late 1960s - and is willing to hear the beloved pop standards of their youth massacred for a new age.

    The movie will make you tap your toes; don't expect much for your head or your heartstrings.

    So light and airy, it almost floats away on its own breeziness.

    BRAN NUE DAE is a pathetic and horrible Australian music that makes Australian's look horrible! This is definitely one of the worst things Australia has had to offer.… Collapse
