Featured review
Great Aussie Flick
If I knew about The Legend of Ben Hall last year then I would of seen it in the cinemas. I found out about this awesome film in a class at film school after being tasked with researching it, I found that I was in need of getting this film for myself. Recently I found it at DVD store so I brought it and watched it.
My opinion of the film; that it's a great Aussie Film. The acting, costuming, props, and everything about it was amazing. The lengths that Matthew Holmes went to keep it historically accurate amazed me. Many films can say they are accurate but in most cases they are betrayed in a fictional and story driven way. However this isn't the case here. When I finished watching it, I had to have a moment to take in the visuals. Because they are amazing. I was very much liked them to a point where I went and watched the special features to find out how they made it. The film is something that audiences love out Hollywood Westerns. It capabilities that essences but it isn't necessarily fictional. It actually happened.The drama That Ben Hall comes from historians that consulted with Matthew Holmes on the script.
Because Great Aussie Films sometimes aren't seen by Australians. This film, I feel is a must see for any who loves Australians films, History of Australia and just good Australian Westerns. Sometime great Aussie flicks aren't seen at all. This one is a must to track down and get.
9 out 10, worth every dime.
