Ned Kelly är berättelsen om Australiens mest kända bandit. Mellan åren 1878-1880 gäckade han och hans gäng den australiska polisen i nordöstra Victoria, medan lokalbefolkningen hyllade honom som en hjälte. Slutet av 1800-talet var en orolig tid i Australiens historia. Engelska straffångar hade sedan lång tid tillbaka deporterades till landet och klassmotsättningarna var enorma. I ett klimat av ständiga trakasserier från den australiska polisen, växte Ned Kelly upp och hamnade redan som 16 åring inför rätta för en häststöld. Efter att ha skjutit två poliser, när han vid ett tillfälle försökte försvara sin syster, förklarades Ned Kelly som fredslös. Tillsammans med sin bror Dan och två vänner bildade han ett banditgäng som drog runt och rånade banker. Ned Kelly blev med tiden allt mer våghalsig och tog vid ett tillfälle en hel stad som gisslan.

Ned Kelly Ratings & Reviews

ርልዪረ13 juni 2025
There are few films that leave me with the feeling that Gregor Jordan's 'Ned Kelly' film did. Initially I had heard only half hearted recommendations, and decided to see it for myself. Since then, I have acquired both the video and soundtrack, and have to say that after several viewings, I am still very impressed with the underlying character of this film. It is also wonderful to see something Australian! I appreciate its down to earth quality, that if you ask me is a rarity, as well as the absence of tackiness that takes away from so many films. This film proves that you don't necessarily require fancy costumes and a glamorous set that absorbs how many millions of dollars to make a point. The cast was a bonus, including a variety of well known, and might I add, good looking people who did well to slip into the role of such unique characters. It is interesting to note, that much of the criticism regarding this film has been about who played what, and how they only said so many lines. However, if any criticism is due, it should constructively focus on the fact that a number of basic elements of the original events were excluded. In reality, these functioned to made it the hallmark that it is in Australian history. For example, on a closer examination it can be discovered that there was much, much more to the relationship between Joe Byrne and Aaron Sheritt, and that this was in fact responsible for many more of the final outcomes for the gang than were explored in the film. Also overlooked was the fact that it was not only Aaron Sheritt's efforts alone, that provided the Victorian police with their insights into the unfolding mystery. Yes, this is their interpretation of the story, and it is understandable that true stories require sensationalism and at times the modification of the original plot to grab the viewers attention. I feel that in this case, this is the only limitation. However, I can accept that perhaps historical accuracy is only of significance to those who have a particular interest in the realistic events behind a situation. It certainly inspired me to look more closely. So, watch it and decide for yourself. You might not like it at all, thats your opinion, and thats fine. Maybe it is a film that appeals largely to an Australian audience? For me, I'd call it a breath of fresh air!
