Kangaroo (out Sep 18) is an Aussie family film about a washed-up TV weatherman who rediscovers himself while looking after orphaned kangaroos in the outback. I liked the supporting cast (Rachel House is MVP) but the film focuses on the wrong person. The redemptive arc provided to the weatherman is laden with cliches. The more interesting, complex character is a teenage girl played by Lily Whiteley. Needed more of her! Grade: C.
