The Water Diviner



Rating: 2.5/5

The water diviner is about an australian man who travels to turkey to find his 3 lost sons. On his journey he encounters several problems and issues, it's not an easy ride for him. His wife commited suicide, he has nothing, he is convinced his three sons are dead but don't give up hope on trying to find them.
What i find intriguing is how an aussie would get help from the turks who are under his country's mercy after losing the war to the allies. The turkish general seems so nice to a man who's countrymen killed his own people.
On the other hand the first hour of the movie seems like a decade. The sequence of action is very slow, the viewer will be interested in the film after the hour mark. And it seems as if the center of gravity of the movie is Russell Crowe. Without his touch this movie wouldn't even make it to the box office.

The water diviner is a fine movie, not excellent or astonishing or a mind blow but watchable. It just passed.
