The View from Greenhaven is a 2008 Australian comedy-drama film directed by Kenn and Simon MacRae, starring Chris Haywood and Wendy Hughes.
The film was released on 16 October 2008.
Annette Basile of FilmInk wrote that the film "will put a smile on your face and make its way into your heart."[1] George Palathingal of The Sydney Morning Herald wrote that "With any luck, the MacRaes will think their next project through more carefully. It's all well and good knowing how to tell a story; it's another matter getting people to pay attention."[2]
Jake Wilson of The Age called the film "thinly imaged though efficiently constructed".[3] Jason Di Rosso of Radio Australia wrote that while Haywood and Hughes are "good in the lead roles", the rest of the characters "just aren't original or interesting enough" and the "emotional watershed at the end, too, feels a little simplistic."[4]
