Review of The Water Diviner (2014) by Brent_Marchant — 01 May 2015

An uneven but earnest effort by first-time director Russell Crowe that delivers the heartfelt anguish a parent suffers in the loss of his children to war. A little polish around the edges and in certain aspects of the film easily could have made this a much better picture.

But, given that this is Crowe's first stab at directorial work, it passes muster in many ways that even more experienced filmmakers fail to attain in their offerings.
