At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Two drag performers and a transgender are on their way to a performance. They are traveling in a bus that they named as "Priscilla". On their way, the bus break down. There are a lot of people they meet. A lot of situations they pass though. The movie is accompanied by great music.The problems of transgenders face and how the society treats them etc are discuss in the movie.The most interesting thing is that, actors whom you can never imagine in a girl's outfit are on screen. They have done a great job. The costume and make up also helped it a lot. The movie won Oscar for the Best Costume Design.A really entertaining, colorful road movie. Do not miss it.#KiduMovie

Two drag queens (Guy Pearce and Hugo Weaving) and a transsexual (Terence Stamp) travel across the desert to perform their unique style of cabaret.Guy Pearce is pretty amazing here. Although not gay, he plays the stereotypical gay guy to a T. He takes what we saw from Robin Williams in "The Bird Cage" and improves upon it, making it all his own. This is more believable than what Williams did.Terence Stamp is also incredible, playing a total bad-donkey. He is apparently supposed to be transgender, but looks like an old man in a wig. That actually makes him all the more interesting, because it bends the genders in a fun and entertaining way: a man transitioning to a woman, while still maintaining a tough, rough, and pugilistic exterior. Excellent.

This first of all is a really fun movie it's not great but close to it, it won the Oscar for costume design in 94 but that shows how well this film is put together. Since it follows three drag queen performers who perform songs like Shake Your grove Thing,Finally,I Will Survive by three terrific actors Stamp, Weaving and Pierce and that's the main reason why the film is so good since they all work great together and all but the movie dealt with LGBT rights and a a lot of films did not handle them at the time.This movie was bold and came from it was a Broadway show and a lot of cult success well deserved cause of it. Check it out but it's not for everyone because it's mainly over the top but that's why we all like Priscilla.

Anybody who knows me would know that I think Australia has only made about 3 good films in the past 20 years (I'm just sick of comedy's - plus I have almost no idea what Australian films are in Development - for good reason that I don't want to know). This happens to be one of the highest ratings of an Australian film you are likely to see from me. For English-speaking-countries film industries - I prefer Hollywood, the UK or Canada.The plot synopsis would probably be one of the strangest I have ever looked at - and if you walk in expecting a strange comedy then you have come to the right place. If "2 drag queens and a transsexual go across to the desert to mouth lyrics of pop stars" seems like your sort of movie then I will hand this to you, if you want a strange comedy then I will also hand it to you.If comic timing is how you judge a performance in comedy then Guy Pearce is the best actor out of this movie. Seeing him in this before Prometheus made me see him in a very new light when playing Weyland.So if you like strange comedy films where the lead characters are 3 respected actors playing transvestites and transsexuals (they might not be THAT respected but I never thought I'd see Hugo Weaving in a dress after seeing him in The Matrix) then I will hand it to you saying "expect transvestism jokes".How do I end a review for this movie off? Oh I know "Bye bye Ralph".
