I like Australian series but High Country is, simply put, poor. Loaded down with woke nonsense, including comments that belittle men, this series comes across as brittle and mirthless. Worse still, the story line meanders, trying to be more cleverly complex, than its creative IQ allows. In summary, there is not a lot to like here. Yes, high production values and at times, reasonable acting but the script and associated characterisations. combined with the usual woke politicking, are a huge turn off. A hard pass from me.Read more
