- Synopsis
- This film is based on "Our Sunshine" by Robert Drew, a novel based on the life of Australian bushranger and icon, Ned Kelly. It tells of his life as a bushranger in north-west Victoria, where he lived all his life. He, his brother Dan, and two other men, Steve Hart and Joe Byrne, formed a gang. These four robbed a bank and hijacked an entire town for 3 days. They killed three policemen who were hunting them. They then took over a pub in Glenrowan, where they basically held a party, waiting for a train full of police to derail at a part of the track that they tore up. However a school teacher warned the train, so the gang and all the others in the pub ended up in a shootout with scores of policemen.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Expertly combining the personal and the epic, Jordan has crafted an excellent historical saga that doesn't collapse under the weight of too much history"
-
"A boggy mix of fact, fiction, and changeable wigs and beards worn"
-
"The result is a handsome, action-packed biographical drama with a credibility gap wider than the screen."
-
"The whole movie is curiously distant and flat, like a museum object encased in extra-thick glass"
