Escape and Evasion

This is a very good movie depicting post traumatic stress of returned soldiers. The main Actor does a great job. Not a big American production, but certainly a decent effort for an Australian feature film. Worth a view

I really like this movie. It is a gritty, grimy, brutal perspective of a war in the burmese jungles. A passable performance by Josh McConville as the troubled soldier. It has everything in it and as such never really achieves anything. Can't help but feel it's more a Storm Ashwood showcase than film....

but it's a good showcase, definitely worth a go.

Disgusted. Fictional rubbish. Oh, did I mention I'm an ex grunt. 25yrs worth. Should I at this point mention I was in SF for half of that. At no time did we ever go to Burma either in my grunt or SF time in the ADF! At no time have we ever sustained casualties with the B-Movie premise of being the "lone survivor". This makes a mockery of everything our soldiers have done. Yes fictional liberties can be taken, but atleast put it in the backdrop against actual work and missions being undertaken by our brave and selfless ADF personnel serving. Disgusted! Where the hell was the military advisors role in this. Should be sacked. Next time get someone with an ounce of experience in SF. Ashamed!

A really awful movie. Over cooked PTSD. Australian accents, done till you either put cotton or lit matches in your ears. Bad script, entirely predictable.

The capper was the Apocalypse angle.

This film has one sort of half decent action/fighting scene. One sex scene without boobies. And then just some boring story about a bloke battling with the relationship he has with his daughter and ex wife.

Honestly, this movie looks like it was made just so the producers could put some text in at the end about the treatment of PTSD for veterans.

The acting was on par with low budget Australian films. I actually yawned a few times watching this piece of crap - cements my choice to avoid Australian films, always! Crap. Crap. Crap.

Go buy a notepad with nothing written in it, and read it a dozen times - you'll get more joy there than watching this utterly useless waste of time (MY TIME!!!!!), money, effort, and oxygen.
