I haven't actually seen all that many Australian films. Here are my favourites in chronological order:
The Man from Snowy River (mainly for the epic gallop down the mountain side)
Malcolm
Two Hands
Moulin Rouge!
Dirty Deeds (2002) is the last Australian movie i've seen... not very patriotic of me‼

Also I just remembered another movie that impressed me when I was a kid. It was something about a big truck...sort like mad max i think. I will try find the name.
EDIT: Now I remember. It was called "Battletruck". The reviews say it was a lame copy of Mad Max 2. All I remember is a big truck thundering down the road. I would like to see if I can get it on dvd.

I saw "Boy" the the film festival on the weekend, it's not aussie but worth a look, highest grossing NZ film ever, worth it just to see the after credits scene, it's wonderfully entertaining.
Maybe we should start a "best kiwi film" thread!
Oh I'd put LOTR on top!

Best Kiwi film ever, hands down, Once Were Warriors. The sequel was horrible, i can't even remember the title.
The sequel was "what become's of the broken hearted" and although it was not as great as the first film I still go alot out of it and thought it a fine film.

Thanks for the tip. I have not heard of this one before.

It was a huge hit on its first release and in many ways rejuvenate the Australian film industry arguably even more than Hanging Rock. It has stood the test of time remarkably.
Another great one is Wake IN Fright but be warned that kangaroo hunt is still very hard to watch.
