Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

comedy_inc98 looking for Alibrandi was excellent. This movie is funny and sad , with great performances by Anthony Lapaglia and Pia Miranda. i cried so much in certain parts and laughed so much in certain parts. Pia Miranda was so great in this movie. she acts so consistently well through out the movie and i hope she becomes a big and well known star. Over all this movie was outstanding. all the Australian movies i have seen are really not that good but this movie shows that there are good Australian produces and directors. This movie is great. Its a must see. this movie would probably be my favourite movie when it came out and its still in my top 15. i watch it like 3 times a month its a great film and i really like so watch it cause its great.

surf_babe43 There are not many great Australian films, but this one - Looking For Alibrandi - was quite good. It probably had an advantage to it's goodness as the author herself Melina Marchetta actually wrote the screenplay.Though the movie is not exactly the same as the novel, the movie is filled with many great moments that are quite funny, and scenes that are dramatic.It is a must-see for anyone that has read her novel, and others who haven't.I gave this movie eight out of ten stars, because there are some scenes in the movie (not most of it, just a few) when you wonder why Melina wrote this scene into the screenplay, and it gets confusing.All in all, it is not your average Australian movie - that are always plain and boring - it is excellent, and I think that they got great actors and actresses to bring the characters to life such as the main character who plays Josie, Pia Miranda.

kailea88 All though i found the movie entertaining at time's,I don't think the story was well written,as the outcome was very predictable.I found the character Josie to be very selfish and wanted everything to revolve around herself such as her being against her mother trying to be happy and make a life for her self.Towards the end of the movie i was pleased to see That she learned not to judge people by there appearance alone.I was happy to see that Josie realized that John Bartin was suicidal and wasn't the strong confident person she thought he was and gave Jacob a chance

athiestantem the movie is very good. it has a very good plot for a teenager and it deals with the same things that teenagers go through at this stage in thir life. Pia Miranda plays the part of Josie very good and that is good. all in all it is a good movie and i reccomend it to any person over ythe age of 13
