Movie Reviews

Screen International - 10/10 by Frank HatherleyDavid Gulpilil crowns his career with a mesmeric portrait of stubborn, baffled pride in his third major movie for maverick filmmaker Rolf de Heer.
Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatTouching portrait of an Aboriginal elder who is determined to live the old ways.
Sydney Morning Herald - 9/10 by Paul ByrnesThese films are a powerful window on Aboriginal culture, made as a collaboration, rather than by a helicopter director. In every sense, they're a gift to the nation.
NOW Toronto - 8/10 by Norman WilnerIt's a beautifully photographed, unrelentingly bleak picture that works as a Rorschach test for the viewer's empathy.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Tom KeoghA series of chapters in noble effort and misadventure alike, all captured with fluid camerawork trained on Gulpilil's every move or his long passages of mesmerizing stillness.
NPR - 8/10 by Bob MondelloThe film gets some of its power from the fact that Charlie's story tracks pretty closely with that of the actor playing him. But just some of its power.
sbs.com.au - 8/10 by Rochelle SiemienowiczRolf de Heer is without a doubt one of Australia's most interesting and productive auteurs.
We Got This Covered - 8/10 by David JamesCharlie's Country is a more than worthy piece of cinema, firmly anchored by David Gulpilil's magnetic lead performance.
At the Movies (Australia) - 8/10 by Jason Di RossoThere's no denying the power behind this confronting story.
The Australian - 8/10 by Evan WilliamsWhatever his [Gulpilil] motives, he has given us an unforgettable film, beautifully made, at times unbearably sad, but tinged with an unquenchable optimism and humanity.
