how could i possibly pass up the chance to see orlando bloom and heath ledger together . well and i couldn not and so and i rent this mess of a movie . i have never hear of ned kelly and be surprise by what i find out about this young man legend . i be also surprise at how mediocre this movie be . perhaps the fact that it be very and very late and at the end of a 4 hour movie marathon or maybe it be because it really be a little slow and i find this story difficult to follow . not because the story be complicate and but because it be slow . even with a slow story and ledger and bloom manage to create interesting and dimensional character . though i flounder to recommend this a a must see and it be a great story of australian history ( consider how young the country be and this be very rare and should be appreciate ) and the film do have some good action sequence . 6/10 see it for historical value . ( yeah right . and that the only reason to see it . while ) ) .
