Paul Byrnes Sydney Morning Herald Jan 31, 2011
The movie is half a great film about Kokoda. Go to Full Review
Jim Schembri The Age (Australia) Jan 31, 2011
4.5/5
One of the great strengths of Kokoda is the unflinching honesty with which it recreates the nature of the fighting. The film brims with detail that is physically, emotionally and psychologically authentic. Go to Full Review
David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) Jan 31, 2011
4/5
The film deserves absolutely top marks for really re-creating this nightmare -- the rain, the mud, the dysentery, the horrors and it is almost like a horror film at times, as the Japanese get so close to them. Go to Full Review
Colin Fraser FILMINK (Australia) Jan 31, 2011
It's a remarkable feature for so many reasons, not the least of which is the haunting tension that fills every shot of every scene. Go to Full Review
Margaret Pomeranz At the Movies (Australia) Jan 31, 2011
3.5/5
First time director Alister Grierson is excellent at recreating the physicality of the Kokoda Trail but misses an emotional factor so that the film, while convincing, is not as moving as you would want or expect. Go to Full Review
