Karl Quinn The Age (Australia) For those who believe Australian cinema is too dark, too small, too focused on grim reality rather than the glittery stuff of the silver screen, He Ain’t Heavy will serve as proof. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Peter Gray The AU Review It’s a dark experience that could trigger those that have battled addiction, or know those who have, but the ultimate peace the story commits to makes the journey worth the gloomy trek. Rated: 4/5 Oct 18, 2024 Full Review Jim Schembri jimschembri.com The film is riddled with so many plausibility issues it quickly become both agonising and infuriating...[it's] so bad the only reason you have to keep watching is to see if it can possibly get any worse. On that score the film doesn’t disappoint. Rated: 0.5/5 Oct 16, 2024 Full Review Julian Wood FILMINK (Australia) … comes straight from the heart. Rated: 17/20 Oct 8, 2024 Full Review Simon Miraudo Movie Squad (RTRFM 92.1) An exceedingly powerful and impressive feature debut. Rated: 4/5 Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Nadine Whitney AWFJ.org He Ain’t Heavy is as harrowing as it is human. The rawness and honesty of David Vincent Smith’s film is disarming. A blazing debut from an Australian talent tackling difficult subject matter with nuance and grace. Rated: A+ Aug 28, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
