Critic Reviews of "The Legend of Ben Hall"
Luke Y. Thompson L.A. WeeklyJanuary 06, 2017It's a serviceable Aussie Western set circa 1864, one that moves at a good clip despite being more than two hours long.
Sheri Linden Hollywood ReporterDecember 17, 2016Holmes' unfocused screenplay makes clear that his subject was an honorable thief (Hall never took a life), but the writer-director never makes any of it matter.
Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles TimesDecember 15, 2016Often the word "legend" in a film title can be a fairly good indicator that you're not in for a breezy frolic, but that still doesn't prepare you for the ponderously protracted slog that is "The Legend of Ben Hall."
Jim Schembri 3AWDecember 26, 2016The long-neglected tale of bushranger Ben Hall - there was an ABC TV series way back in 1975 - receives a pretty good going over in this impressive, ambitious, incident-packed feature from writer/director Matthew Holmes.
David StrattonDecember 02, 2016As portrayed by Jack Martin, the bushranger is an imposing figure, tall craggy, blue-eyed and charming when he wants to be. But his motivations, except for the fact he wants his son back, remain sketchy.
David 'Mad Dog' Bradley Adelaide ReviewDecember 02, 2016This is far too long (half an hour could have easily been trimmed) and the actors aren't always up to it, and yet it's still worth persevering with, right down to the you-saw-it-coming, sub-Bonnie And Clyde ending.
Sandra Hall Sydney Morning HeraldNovember 30, 2016There's a story here somewhere but I suspect the nub of it is at the beginning of Hall's bushranging career, rather than the end. Whatever the truth of it, Holmes is too tentative in his attempts to tease it out.
Andrew L. Urban Urban CinefileNovember 26, 2016Writer/director Matthew Holmes steers and controls the film's tone with a single minded focus that serves the film well, appealing to the serious historian and invested film lover
Erin Free FILMINK (Australia)November 22, 2016...an impressive feature bold in its sense of ambition and rich with character-driven intimacy.
