    Pretty Good, worth the watch

    Well shot and visually appealing (besides the small amount of CGI) Good script, acting and plot.

    The writing and props could use improvement, some impractical scenes and guns/kit decisions.

    All in all a pretty good fiction war movie with a good message about awareness of PTSD and unlike many movies that try to bring light to PTSD it avoids being cheesy and using worn out clichés.

    Is like a rambo returns

    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.

    Unwatchable

    Just a terrible film - essentially Neighbours meets Rambo and they turn into mush. Nothing really happens and its all feelings and drama with not much acting present. Avoid if possible.

    The Real Rambo

    I love Australia & World Films and TV they are a lot more realistic than the US BS that claims to be the truth. One Soldier's story about being sent on a mission to Myanmar and dealing with the trauma and guilt back in the real world. A reporter delves into the truth about what happened to her brother on the mission. A very realistic depiction of how the horrors of war can impact on the family life. Very well acted by Josh Mcconville and well supported by Bonnie Sveen and Jessi Robertson.

    Brando/Sheen retrospective reaches Australia

    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.
