Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

LeanneCampbell I was so impressed with this film! The film paid attention to accuracy and authenticity. For a film made without a massive Hollywood budget this film translated as a richly deep film. I personally particularly liked the different portrayal of the gang. So nice to have different accents and personalities that would have reflected the real colonial era. The dancing scene was a particular favourite one of mine.

MikepUK Living in the UK I knew nothing about the subject of this film and watched it purely as I had it on PC. I was very impressed by all aspects of the production. It held my attention from the start and told me a lot about a period of Australian history I knew little about. The film didn't make tremendous efforts to persuade you to like the characters, which I approved of, it let you decide. Scenery, dialogue, acting was all top notch.Oddly enough the thing that made the biggest impression on me in terms of realism was that the majority of bullets fired at various characters actually missed!! It is rare for this to happen in a film when usually every shot hits a target and it made such a refreshing change for an accurate portrayal of shoot outs to be shown.I also read that this film started with a crowdfunding campaign so all credit to everyone involved for making such an excellent film - big studios would do well to take note - you don't need millions to make a damn good film!!

bon-28484 The Story of Ben Hall is told beautifully in the Film. I went in not Knowing who Ben Hall was except for him being a bush-ranger.He is now one of my Favourite Characters in Australian History. The Movie tells Information about him very well, and the action keeps it entertaining. This Movie would be very excellent for Schools If they were to study the legendary bush-ranger, although with this comment I must say there are some sexually suggestive scenes which would need to be skipped, or watched by mature Senior StudentsThis Movie Is a Very well made and should deserve more support.

Robert Johnson-Esquire I Went to see this showing at a charity event at the Capri theatre, not my normal choice of movie (to go and watch) and was very pleased i did, i believe this film far surpass'es other stereotypical Aussie films, both in acting and production and quality camera work, and many other areas the subject matter and research show great effort, i was SO impressed i brought the Blue-ray/DVD/Special Feature 3 Disc collectors edition set , in the lobby after showing for 30 AUD plus ticket of 25 AUD $55.00AUD in total without regret ! , if your an Aussie like me and have felt somewhat embarrassed by past Aussie films on an international level, you need not about this film/little gem, as it is truly (World class) production. while the subject matter may steer you away from choosing this over other titles it is most definitely well worth the watch, and something all Aussie's could be proud of in being an Australia production, this film absolutely craps all over and leaves in the dust! , Mick Jagger's attempts at portraying Ned Kelly so many years ago (which is what springs to my mind when reading the cover prior to watching LOL) this is not in the same league or Class as that fizzer , at some points i'd forgotten i was watching a movie due to the intense immersion and relate-ability with the authentic on screen characters , they were very realistic 10/10 from me
