Synopsis

Police officers Trevor Darling and Nikki Iceton have to escort a young Aboriginal woman to the NSW outback to stand trial. Kath is accused of murdering a publican who tried to rape her. Trevor is a disgraced drug squad detective who was accused of shooting an Aboriginal youth; Nikki is a new recruit who thinks he is a racist. They become stranded in the desert when he decides to take a shortcut. Kath saves them with her local knowledge, but they're being followed by an Aboriginal man in a purple car. Forced to rely on each other, the lines blur between police officers and prisoner. By the time they are rescued, both Nikki and Trevor believe Kath is innocent. They are determined to get the proof.

John Hill
2/10

The choice of music in Backlash often felt jarring and out of place, disrupting the flow of the narrative rather than enhancing it. It seemed like the soundtrack was hastily put together without much consideration for how it would complement the scenes unfolding on screen.

As someone who pays close attention to film scores, I was disappointed by the generic and forgettable nature of the music in Backlash. It didn't leave a lasting impression or add any memorable moments to the overall viewing experience. I believe a more thoughtfully crafted soundtrack could have significantly improved the emotional impact of the film.
