Movie Reviews

Empire - 10/10 by Ian NathanIntelligent and moving depiction of the futility of war with a superb script and mesmerising performances from all.
Q Network Film Desk - 10/10 by James Kendrickengrossing military drama that contains a wealth of insight into the intertwined tragedies of power, politics, war, and human nature.
The Associated Press - 9/10 by Bob ThomasBy the time it plays out its hand, this film has become genuinely, surprisingly affecting. And unspeakably sad.
Creative Loafing - 9/10 by Matt BrunsonBased on a true story but playing like a close cousin to Stanley Kubrick's 1957 masterpiece Paths of Glory.
ColeSmithey.com - 9/10 by Cole Smithey"Breaker Morant" is an anti-war film that takes no prisoners.
Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Clayton DillardA time-jumping narrative that’s rooted inside the linear temporal unfoldings of a pre-determined trial, Breaker Morant is like a conventional bloke in art—house clothing—but oh, what garb he has.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeBold, uncompromising and completely compelling filmmaking.
Video-Reviewmaster.com - 8/10 by Steve CrumMemorable Aussie epic with Edward Woodward particularly good.
Newsweek - 7/10 by David AnsenThe film handles difficult issues of wartime morality, with clear parallels to the American experience in Vietnam, but Beresford's direction is so placid, distanced, and methodical that the film never admits any doubt or debate; it tends to seal up the issues rather than liberate them.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's deservedly one of the most acclaimed Australian films.
