Leave your thoughts about Mad Bastards.
| The Age (Australia)Jim SchembriMad Bastards is this year's Samson & Delilah; it bravely explores a host of hot-button issues with a deft blending of humour, sensitivity and often brutal frankness. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Annette BasileWhile it tackles tough material, the terrific lead performances, stunning cinematography and uplifting score add up to a film that's pretty special. |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanA harsh tale told in a soft voice by Brendan Fletcher, who uses a full soundtrack to calm our jangling emotions. The film is understated in its redemptive message |
| At the Movies (Australia)Margaret PomeranzThe writer/director was Brendan Fletcher, it's his first feature and if there is a flaw with the film it is that the narrative is at times a bit confused. Despite that there's something very affecting about these Mad Bastards. |
| Cinema AutopsyThomas CaldwellMad Bastards is simply Australia's most impressive film since Animal Kingdom. |
| Empire Magazine AustralasiaRod YatesThe Australian film renaissance continues in style. |
| Filmcritic.comNorm Schragerlives in a heartbreaking place of real people and their real-life hopes. |
| LimelightLynden BarberThere's no denying the film has real heart, buoyed by surprisingly strong performances from a mostly inexperienced cast who drew on their own lives in creating their characters. |
| Time Out SydneyAndrew FuhrmannThe story arc is a cringingly facile story of redemption which, but for the curious ghost of reality behind it, would have been pretty forgettable. |
| Herald Sun (Australia)Leigh PaatschThankfully, a resounding emphasis on authenticity and an infectiously motivated cast of amateurs carries this heartfelt drama across the line. |
