Searing dramatization of a story of remarkable courage, stamina and spirit.
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

Many movies claim to illuminate the human spirit, but Rabbit-Proof Fence actually delivers.
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic

[Director Phillip] Noyce shows their awful, eventually uplifting journey without flinching, and the arid Australian wilderness is a co-star of the film.
Michael Booth, Denver Post

Noyce trusts the power of the story to move us. He knows that, like the girls themselves, we'll find our way along Rabbit-Proof Fence.
