7/10

The plot isn't massively interesting to me, but some fine acting alongside terrific cinematography and editing keeps <em>'The Man from Snowy River'</em> going at a positive level. Tom Burlinson is good as Jim, while Kirk Douglas does a top job in a dual role as Harrison & Spur. The rest of the cast are solid. The storyline is watchable and I did enjoy it, but it just wasn't anything I could sink my teeth into; it's a little plain. However, as noted at the top, I do love how the film is put together; particularly with the horses, across the running shots especially. Australia looks nice, too! Interested to see where the sequel goes, I assume it'll follow-up directly on the final scene of this one but we'll see. As for this 1982 production, I rate it.
