W.T.F mate, I keep hearing all these amazing things about the film and yet people are just not feeling it, not even in Australia!

It may be the most expensive and ambitious film ever made Down Under, and it certainly received saturation media coverage, but Baz Luhrmann’s “Australia” isn’t breaking records in Oz.

Then again, how it holds will be the real test. Fox execs are hoping that, as the movie heads into its second weekend, it will have legs like Luhrmann’s 2001 “Moulin Rouge.”

“Australia” mustered a strong but not stellar A$7.8 million ($4.9 million) in its five-day opening weekend, which kicked off on Wednesday.
