4 stars out of 5 -- Sparse, textured and bleak, director-cinematographer Warwick Thornton’s SWEET COUNTRY is a soulful slice of Australian history mixed with the tropes of a classic Western.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
"The fourth feature by Australian filmmaker Thornton is not just the surprise of the week. It can even be the year, even though it has been released in our country with more than a year of delay".

Uncompromising, deliberate, and eerily beautiful, director Warwick Thornton's rugged Australian Western puts a new spin on an old story.

The Jam Report
[I]t has its own hypnotic mood and flavor: that familiar Ozploitation feel for the nebulous boundary between civilization and the anarchic wild.
A.V. Club
Rating: 3.5/5 --
Uncomfortable to watch, the film works as a distinguished, forceful statement on integrity, authority, and bigotry and is a strong entry for the genre.
