    True Colours is slow, but well worth watching.

    First up, I am Australian, but I am *not* Indigenous. I live in Melbourne, and while I have visited Darwin, I have never been to Alice Springs, so the land portrayed in this series is not something I have seen for myself.

    I am embarrassed to say that the aspects of Indigenous Culture and Customs presented here are not familiar to me - although I have heard other references to it. I am therefore glad that it is so clearly presented here.

    That said, this is what some would consider a "slow burn" of a story; one that presents as much about place and culture as it does about solving a crime (or two).

    Personally though, I like the way that the story unfolds; I like the acting and the portrayal of the characters; and I like the way that it is filmed (especially because it doesn't rely *too* much on drone camera shots!).

    For a city person like me, this shows a completely different view of Australia to what I know, but I recognize that this is a landscape that many foreign viewers fantasize about.

    I must say also that I enjoy hearing an example of the Indigenous language (my understanding is that there are a great number of languages spoken by First Nations people, so I am not sure how widely spoken this particular language is.

    So, don't expect fast pace and lots of action, but *do* expect to see an interesting story very well told and acted.

    Another Australian home run

    This is a very interesting and satisfying show because it has a good script, wonderful performances by all and interesting character actors. Good photography, editing and production value. They speak in English and in different aboriginal languages:dialects with subtitles. The aboriginal culture is so interesting. And being a different culture, we couldn't second guess who-done-it or where the story was taking us. Nothing was predictable. This should have a second season starring Rarriwuy Hick and Luke Taylor (Long John silver in Black Sails). They have a strong screen presence and good chemistry together.

    Not bad!

    Very slow at times interesting story line about sadness in the indigenous people of Australia.

    Pretty average acting by well worn stars with lots of plastic surgery.

    Not the best we have produced.

    Ignorance has this over rated.

    This along with so many titles here on IMDB is over rated. If it's not the interested parties doing the abnormally hight star count it's the ignorant, as is the case with True Colours.

    As mentioned by other reviewers this mini series is rather slow and drawn out, with a very ordinary ending. It does have some great scenery and gives the viewer a good sample of central Australia. As for the all other aspects film production it rates on par with the (probably) limited budget. Some of the acting is great but mostly it is atrocious.

    Why I mention ignorance is much of this story is completely unrealistic and viewers are yet again subjected to the bias interpretation the SBS/NITV & ABC (Australian publicly funded broadcasters). I don't speak Aboriginal but I'm pretty some of the actors that use it don't speak it either, they couldn't even get the aboriginal version of English done well.

    Over all not a fan, I wouldn't re-watch but if you like Aussie productions as much as I do give a go..... and don't believe the current 7.1 IMDB star rating.

    SBS/NITV Deliver

    While it starts off slow and sometimes stays in the slow lane, I found it quiet interesting in the way the communities in the outback deal out their justices.

    Rarriwuy Hick certainly held her own in her first lead role, and the cast are brilliant as well.

    This being one of SBS & NITVs first commissions into the foray of Aussie drama, I believe whatever we see next from them will be just as good as their first offering.

    Give it a go. You might just like it.
