I am an Australian and I had never heard about about this movie. In my opinion, this is one of the best movies I have ever seen.

How has such a beautiful saga of family and war and love not been shown before? One of the best Australian films ever. Lynn in NYC

This is what we called " one brilliant movie". Millions thumbs UP!!!

"Vengeance is a dish best served cold". Best movie that I have watched in a very long time.

Never in my long memory can I recall such an artistically satisfying and thematically uplifting film as William Kelly's War. Most unusual of all is perhaps its profound vision of good and evil, a discernment about life which is simply beyond compare.

I recommend you watch White Tiger too if you haven't already

This is the best Aussie movie I've ever watched. Davis and the team please do more Aussie & Pacific movies! There are lots of stories based on WWI and WWII, hopefully we get another soon. 5 Stars

Great Australian period movie done by a family of actors by the looks. Can't give it enough praise. Really worth watching. It needs more advertising.

RIP- Kelly Family. You are all Legends. I just wish all schools would have taught us all about you all in school.

Absolutely ~ seems not all Kelly stories in Australian are based on misguided notoriety / infamy ~ but thankfully ~ more so on heroic and profound Aussie ingrained courage ~

Wow what a masterpiece. I was spellbound, shortest 2 hrs I have spent.

The MoH and VC might be the highest award for valour in both systems, but they are not the same. Compare the number of serving soldiers in the British Empire and Wars and conflicts that they fought in compared to the USA forces and it shows the Victoria Cross is to not given out as easily or often. That said, anyone with a VC or MoH have done something amazing, may no future service people be put in positions where they get nominated for either.

This movie makes me so ANGRY when it is clear the Jesuits and Vatican plus their emerging super world government was behind WW1 and WW2. Our best and finest young men were SLAUGHTERED in the hundreds of thousands! For WHAT????

Im Australian & Iv never heard of this deeply touching, moving film. Why is it not played in every school in Australia?? Wake up Australian Education Department...This absolutely deserves recognition. Wonderful effort Film & Production Co.& every cast & crew member. Fantastic. More pls!

What a thoroughly engaging movie from start to finish. A highly recommended watch. Better than ANYTHING that hollywierd or netflix etc can produce.

What a legendary family. The strength of a family’s love is unmatched. That is why today the evil among us discourage having families. They tell women they don’t need children because they know without a family you have nothing.

It is rare to find such brilliance. The quality of the script is impeccable.

Bloody hell, that was a powerful movie.

This movie is first class, just amazing... so well written and great actors as well. Well done!

One of the best movies I ever watched! A masterpiece of cinematic art. I can't believe I've never heard of this movie. The cast was outstanding. Thanks!

Brilliant! This resonates with me and my family, as my great grandfather was a POW in the Anglo Boer war of South Africa. Our family lost everything as my great grandmother, and all her children were placed in a British Concentration Camp. Many Boer Families were forced into poverty, starvation, suffering and torture. Women were also raped by some British troops. Both my great grandparents died shortly after the war and the family farm was stolen by the British and gifted to Boer traitors who sold out to the British. The irony was that my grandfather and some of his brothers were conscripted to serve the British during the First World War and their sons, my uncles served in the second world War. Myself and my brother and many of my cousins served to defend South Africa against Communism on the Angolan, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Botswana borders.

Agree, brilliant movie. Not dissimilar to the appalling Dutch treatment of natives in the Dutch East Indies, now Indonesia where my wife's great-grandmother was raped and treated as a slave. Even much later in the Dutch colonial wars post WW2 this continued as evidenced by the trials in Groningen in Holland trying to cover this up: "Young conscript soldiers, acting under orders, put numerous hamlets to the torch and butchered men, women and children. In the trial Mr Boomsma referred to the most notorious atrocities committed by the Dutch in Indonesia over Christmas 1946 in the south Celebes."

Martin, I'm sorry for your losses but some justice was served. The husband of one of the many families Kitchener starved to death and escaped death. That man migrated to America, got into the Martine service, and signed on to an English ship that so happened to have on board Lord Kitchener who was en route to the UK to supervise that country's conduct of WWI. The aforementioned sailor made a pact with the Germans and informed them of Kitchener and his staff's whereabouts. Before a U-boat torpedoed Kitchener's ship they tossed out a life raft for the informant who made good his escape. Kitchener's staff in all went to the bottom of the North Atlantic. The war criminal was still at attention when he went to the bottom. As he drowned I think he knew why he was killed in retribution for all the evil he caused to Boer families during that war. He got what he deserved as all bastards do in the end. 🥶😵

@@catholiccrusader5328 As an Irishman Kitchener's death has led to many conspiracy theories, one being HMS Hampshire was blown up by the IRA. Evidence seems to be the route was changed at the last minute by Admiral Jellicoe and Hampshire hit a mine on route to negotiate with the crumbling Tsar on the Eastern front. After the defeat of Boer conventional forces, the defeat of Boer 'hit 'n run' Kommandos was by a scorched earth policy and interning the families, and indeed today crushing the racist Boers would now be considered a war crime. It's a difficult one as you don't win wars by being nice, which I guess is why the West has lost every conflict lately. He is lauded in the Sudan for abolishing slavery and as a fluent Arabic speaker he considered himself Egyptian! I don't think 'Hearts & Minds' campaigns existed then and I believe the late Queen Elizabeth apologised for atrocities carried out by British & Australian forces during the Boer Wars in 1999. All in all, a stain on history.
