The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert Reviews

I wasn’t prepared for the generosity and gorgeousness with which Aussie writer-director Stephan Elliott turn this most unlikely road picture into something arresting, if a tad sentimental, in its naive vision of a perfectly tolerated world.

Wo-men

An all-time favourite of mine. First watched as a teenager shortly after it first came out and loved ever since. Fantastic performances by all three leads, great storylines, and brilliant soundtrack. It’s just the right balance of camp fun and serious themes.

7/10

Beautiful

I'd let Guy Pearce spit on me and call me a faggot. Cannot believe that straight man played a drag queen I LOVE HIM!!!!!!

fun!!

if i was baby jesus, instead of the three wise men it would be mitzi, felicia, and bernadette visiting me in the manger (★★★★½)

This so wild I love it

This surprised me! Off the rip Hugo Weaving and Guy Pearce are incredible, Pearce specifically in one of the more naturally funny roles he’s been in, but both nail this beautiful element of humanity that often goes misrepresented. I particularly was blown away by the cinematography with so much of this film presenting this gorgeous horizon that always perfectly compliments any outfit being worn. Above all else we LOVE Bob, Bob’s the goat. 4/5

One of the most entertaining road trip comedies out there. The acting all around is amazing.

fantastic in every way (except the mail order bride bit)

8-28-25 great movie I’ve loved it since I was a kid

I can see how this has become a cult film! Amazing costumes and slightly crazy but fun plot.

What an Aussie staple! RIP Terence Stamp
