Escape and Evasion

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
