Holiday Movie Guide 2008

Australia
Cast: Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman
Release date: November 26
Why you should see it: In Baz Luhrmann's latest epic, wealthy Brit Sarah (Kidman) hooks up with swarthy outdoorsman The Drover (Jackman) when she inherits a ranch and needs his help to drive 2,000 cows across the Outback, just as World War II is about to begin.
Box office bottom line: War, bombing, beautiful scenery and, of course, some sexy action between the two leads... Luhrmann's flick has it all. Except for the glam sets and lavish costumes we've seen and loved in flicks like the director's Moulin Rouge. We're not saying the word "epic" scares us off, but those sexy scenes need to be reaaallly hot to make us sit through two hours (or more) of cattle driving.
