SMH Staff Sydney Morning Herald Messrs J and N Tait, in the result, presented an ingeniously realistic succession of pictures taken at Glenrowan, the Strathbogie and Wombat Ranges and other Victorian spots at one time haunted by the robbers in question. Jun 24, 2020 Full Review Age Staff The Age (Australia) A conscientious and, on the whole, a creditable, effort has been made to reproduce the tragedies as they occurred, and if there were any imperfections in detail probably few in the hall had memories long enough to detect them. Jul 8, 2019 Full Review NZ Herald Staff New Zealand Herald The story of Ned Kelly and his gang is as well known... in Australian history, and the representation presented last night by Messrs. J. and N. Tait was a most creditable effort to give the story in pictorial form. Nov 6, 2020 Full Review Sunday Times Staff Sunday Times (Australia) An army of supers [extras] shouting, firing, and giving commands from the rear of the cloth added greatly to the excitement. Jun 24, 2020 Full Review Mercury Staff The Mercury (Australia) Without offering an opinion as to what were the actual facts, it is safe to say that the pictures generally have considerable merit. Jun 24, 2020 Full Review Tele Staff Daily Telegraph (Australia) The exploits of the Kelly gang... were admittedly sufficiently daring in their character and tragic in their sequence to provide a sensational page of Australian history, but it is not the class of history to which a nation points with pride.

Erik H damn masterpiece COME ON 1906!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/14/23 Full Review Audience Member What little has survived of this film stands as a testament to its vast ambition, and its place in history needs more appreciation. I can only imagine seeing Ned Kelly dawn his infamous bulletproof armor must have been an Iron Man like spectacle for the time. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member good good movie! i liked the show Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
