Video Details
Australia's breathtaking Victoria Alps set the backdrop for this spectacular epic saga. Tom Burlinson and Sigrid Thornton, two of Australia's brightest film talents, star in a fast-paced, action-packed story of a stormy romance caught up in a violent feud between landowners. Acclaimed actor Brian Dennehy (LEGAL EAGLES, COCOON) gives a gripping performance as the powerful patriarch determined to keep them apart. Visually unforgettable and packed with rugged adventure and masterful stuntwork, RETURN TO SNOWY RIVER is a thrilling and memorable film!

A cinematic work of art.......,
By
This review is from: Return to Snowy River (DVD)
Return to Snowy River is a sequel that definitely compliments the first movie considering a lot of movie sequels don't really make the grade. Also knowing that Disney was at the helm of this production, with their excellent track record, it was a pretty sure thing it was going to be great.Tom Burlinson (as Jim Craig) and Sigrid Thornton (as Jessica Harrison), once again display great chemistry in their interactions that makes for a very pleasing, although turbulent romantic adventure. Amidst the clashing of landowners and Jessica's father (played by Brian Dennehy) wanting to distance her from Jim Craig permanently, the couple discover the power of love and surmount the odds to find happiness. Filmed in Australia's Victorian Alps, the cinematography is visually stunning and breathtaking. The horsemanship and stunt work is very exciting also and coupled with great acting, this movie is a highly rewarding experience for everyone of all ages. I highly recommend this movie to everyone.

They Should Have Left Well Enough Alone,
By A Customer
This review is from: Return to Snowy River (VHS Tape)
The original film "The Man From Snowy River" (based on the poems "The Man From Snowy River," "Pardon, the Son of Reprieve" and "Clancy of the Overflow" by A.B. 'Banjo' Paterson, all of which I highly reccommend) was amazing. It was a classic western, and the riding scenes were astounding. To this day I don't know how anyone could ride the jump off that mountain. But whoever had the bright idea of making a sequel, especially without Kirk Douglas, ought to be dropped off said mountain without a horse. The plot makes no sense--one minute they're in love, the next she's back to bickering. The cast change was disasterous as well. Brian Denehey is a great actor, but it was too radical a difference. Of course the riding scenes were wonderful, but they don't make up for the plot. Also, unless it's Monty Roberts, I seriously doubt one could tame and ride a stallion who's been running wild for at least twenty years and who was portrayed in the first film as a vicious killer. Horses do not change their behavior that radically. On the whole, Maltin is right--the riding's great, but give the plot a pass.
