Average Rating: Rating: - The Man from Snowy River is Back! The man from Snowy River is back! After a few years trying to earn money to marry Jessica Harrison (Sigrid Thornton), Jim Craig (Tom Burlinson) returns to Snowy River. But he finds that a lot of things have changed. The succesful ranchers and bankers want to buy up all of the land of the beautiful Australian mountains where he was brought up. He also finds that Jessica's father, Harrison (Brian Dennehy) wants her to marry Alistair Patton (Nicholas Eadie), son of landowner Patton Sr. (Rhys McConnochie). With a sort of silent feud between the landowners and the mountain men going on, Jim and Jessica must decide if they're love is worth firing up the feud even worse. As most of the cases, I prefer the first movie to "Return to Snowy River" though I think they both deserve 5 stars. One of the reasons is I enjoy the first one more is that Kirk Douglas played Harrison in the first movie. Yes, Brian Dennehy was superb in that role, I still like Kirk Douglas. All right, to the fine parts of the movie. Beautiful and magnificent scenery of the Australian mountains! Excellent acting by all actors and actresses, the suspense, action, and adventure will keep you on the edge of your seats! And Tom Burlinson sure know how to ride when he performs some pretty cool stunts while riding horses. Especially the earlier part of the movie where he proves that he can certainly ride better than Nicholas Eadie who plays the part of the jealous bad guy for Jessica's affection. I recommend this movie along with the first movie, "The Man from Snowy River". These movies are classics and one of the family movies I watch at home. Can't be missed! Rating: - 'Return to Snowy River', the BEST sequel! I could never be more sastisfied with a sequel than this one. It's even better than a Toy Story 2 sequel. Mainly, because all questions are answered, in wonderful movie form! Jim Craig comes back from being away from the mountains for about 3 or 4 years. He hasn't seen Jessica in all that time, and, of course, he wants to. That's when all the trouble begins, and the Jessica and Jim are fighting to be together, while her father and a jealous Military, snobby bankers son, wants Jessica for his own. Which immediatly starts a rivalry with Jim and him before the day was over. The movie has incredible music, and scenery. I think the proffessional reviewers are looking out their own back-yard window when they say that's the only good thing about the movie. The music for this movie and the first one is excellent, beautifully suiting the moment it is being played at. The acting is perfect, to me, and the end satisfying, with Jim riding after Alastair to stop him from leading HIS horses over the border in a thrilling, and at one point, heartbreaking chase. The viewing is crisp and clear, the horses are wonderful. And the real stunts that Tom Burlinson does are AMAZING. Like when his horse Danny goes flying over the cliff edge in a daring leap (slow motion might I add). So good. I can't tell you any more than to stop reading this review and go rent this tape, better yet buy it! If you like romance, and LOVE horses and an engaging story-line, without all the crud they put in the movies now a-days, get this!! Rating: - A Great Sequel One of the few sequels that are as good or better than the original movie! Same great music, hard riding, and stunts as the first. Maybe it's even a little bit better than "The Man From Snowy River". All my friends think so anyway! The only thing that's hard to get used to was that they replaced Kirk Douglas with Brian Dennehy in the part of Harrison. He plays the part well, but it's just a bit unsettling for some reason. It's still a great story, though, and definitely worth a watch.
