“Stephan Elliott turn this most unlikely road picture into something arresting -- if a tad sentimental -- in its naive vision of a perfectly tolerant world.”~Entertainment Weekly

Aroview: Three drag queens drive to Alice Springs in a bus called Priscilla.

A perfect ensemble cast make this classic "out" in the outback roadtrip as poignant as it is crudely hilarious. Won an Oscar for the costumes which will not be forgotten.

4 stars (Very Good) Three colourful larger-than-life drag queens tour the Aussie Outback in Pricilla their unreliable bus. An entertaining and up-lifting feel-good ride. Fans of ABBA will be especially pleased. ~GenXGirl

3 stars (Good Enough) Worth it for the music and wonderful desert fire-side performance with Aborigines and didgeridoos. Priscilla enlivens the outback with its best celebration ever as she races over the sand to fabulous opera with streamers flying. ~rakau

3 stars (Good Enough) Aka "Adventures of--". Hugo Weaving gives another dependable performance but the prize casting is Stamp. The musical numbers and the costumes are well done. ~Tubbs
