there be no doubt that the kokoda trail depict a truly great event in australian military history the brave defence of australia against the cruel barbaric japanese army . howver this film fail to take into account the story of the fuzzy wuzzy or the new guinea native that the australian use to help them carry out there military operation . the film also fail to give a credible account of the australian soldier and his behaviour in this event . it be more like an uninformed contemporary view of what be be like . again the australian film industry have fail to give this important chapter in australia while s history the film it deserve . this be film make at it bad with arbitrary cinematography and bad scripting and dialogue and no character development and cliché jungle warfare scene . it fail to imbue the audience in any meaningful perspective other than the japanese army be ruthless and cruel murderer of an ill equip and badly train group of australian fight in a jungle . the film fail a most australian film do to attract a significant australian audience in fact they stay away in drove . i be not go to join the usual parochial garbage of say it great because it an australian film . i say either do a great job or just leave it to some one who know how . this government fund film be just another failure by australia wealthy and spoilt rich kid . i be give it zero star because it an insult to the descendant of these truly great australian and their enormous sacrifice . what a shameful waste and disrespect and i know this review will provoke more negativity from the movie show crew and most reviewer but i have a right to my opinion and that what australians fight for our freedom and that include freedom of speech and the right to express an opinion .
