Philippa Hawker The Age (Australia) It's Courtin-Wilson's willingness to push boundaries, to explore ways in which the troubled self can be depicted, that makes Hail so singular and striking. Rated: 4/5 Oct 26, 2012 Full Review David Stratton At the Movies (Australia) It is a tough film and I don't mind tough films but there's a relentlessness about this journey, which I found myself reacting against. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Jim Schembri 3AW What starts out as a promising drama...quickly dissolves into an ugly, unpleasant character portrait about an unrepentant brute who prefers to scream at the world rather than confront it. Rated: 1/5 Nov 2, 2012 Full Review Julie Rigg MovieTime, ABC Radio National Hail is highly recommended. If you are a true film lover, you will want to see this. Oct 26, 2012 Full Review Emmet O'Cuana FILMINK (Australia) Its poetic opening moments soon descend into raw, wrenching and compelling viewing. Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Margaret Pomeranz At the Movies (Australia) Perhaps not a film for the faint-hearted, it is nevertheless an important entry into the Australian film landscape. Rated: 4.5/5 Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member 7 years later I still remember this film if asked about gripping australian realism. I'd like to see it again. My memory of the film is a wrenching experience more powerful because it plays with non-literal emotive devices Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Powerful movie !!! How can I contact Danny ??? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Good luck finding a better Australian film this year (or decade!). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A murderous lovestruck masterpiece. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
