Watch The Odd Angry Shot For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

On recent viewing, I have been surprised by how well the film reflected upon individual Australians' involvement in The Vietnam War. It also, through a couple of monologue from old hand, Graham Kennedy, dispassionately reflected upon the ultimate futility of Australia's involvement.Perhaps it's greatest strength was documenting the Australian male character of the times without reverting to a "lovable larrikins" approach. The battle scenes are done without heroics or dramatics. There is a matter of factness about the activities and reactions of the unit that makes them seem all the more realistic.The boredom, routines and irritations of jungle warfare are there as well as the odd angry shot that punctuates guerilla warfare. Loved the low-key ending which resisted taking aim at the unjust treatment of the returning vets but did reflect their estrangement as a presentiment of their future problems in readjusting.

This movie is quite simply outstanding. The writing, acting and general production talent are first rate. If you're looking for non-stop intense war action scenes and high drama, this isn't it, nor what the subject of the movie is about although some of that is there. Ultimately, it is about enduring hardship and perseverance. I saw this movie on cable 35 years ago and it has stuck with me since then. I also watched it a few days ago and found it has much greater insight for me through my own life experiences, now that I myself am a veteran. The dialogue really makes this movie the gem that it is. Funny, satirical, and containing very harsh truths about military service and society in general. All around well done.

This is a fantastic film, that shows the troops during their good and bad times. One minute they fight in the heat of battle, and the next they are drinking or causing havoc. This is a great film, and although it has a few errors, and mistakes factually it is a great all round film that has great acting due to good casting, a good story line and script.The soundtrack is great. The music suits, especially at the end as the film closes with the song "Who Cares Anyway" by Normie Rowe. Alas I have not been able to find this song anywhere on the Internet or to download so I think it may have been just made specially for the film and not released which is a shame as its a great song.Other than that it is well worth buying, preferably on DVD. It doesn't cost that much and it is an enjoyable film.

I have seen this movie many times and never tire of it. Knowing people that were involved in the conflict I believe that this is how they acted. Graham Kennedy is excellent as Harry as are the other actors. It is a no holds barred account of the soldiers time in the jungles of Vietnam. Showing the soldiers personal side to the story only makes this film better.This movie is also now available on DVD. It is well worth obtaining a copy as this movie is well worth keeping in any persons DVD library. This is one the better made Australian movies and future generations will also enjoy watching an account of a turbulent time in world history.
