Reviews & comments
Flicks, Glenn Dunks
flicksIt is an unfortunate side effect of the film business that some movies simply have ambitions bigger than their budgets could ever possibly afford. Their eyes are bigger than their stomachs, so to speak, and while a determination to make anything work is essential for filmmakers, what ends up on the screen isn’t always a fair representation of what the story deserves.
Urban Cinefile
pressMore extraordinary than any fictional film script, this 'mostly true' account of Errol Flynn's exploits before Hollywood days is a ripper. Russell Mulcahy has crafted a wonderfully entertaining film filled with exotic locations, action and surprises.
The Guardian
press...this is a fun film constructed in a smart way: an anti-high art picture that happily prioritises embellishing legend over recreating life.
Sydney Morning Herald
pressAs Flynn, Australian actor Thomas Cocquerel...has the looks but neither the accent nor the urbanity required to bring him back to life.
Hollywood Reporter
pressA disgracefully entertaining romp that packs an unexpected emotional wallop.
FilmInk
press...it swings, swashes, and buckles in a way that the man himself would probably have loved.
