Rating: 3/5 -- The film just about transcends its abundant clichés. It's Coen Brothers lite but made with some panache.
London Evening Standard

As short on originality and sustained tension as it is long on striking widescreen vistas and impressive technical smarts. Full Review

Rating: 4.5/5 -- Red Hill is the perfect combination of well-paced storytelling, gritty violence and a compelling morality play of just how far one man would go in order to uphold the law even if it means going against his better judgment. Full Review

The movie is extremely well staged and the young hero's dramatic lineage is established by his resonant name - Shane Cooper. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Hughes's direction is sly without being smug, and Kwanten grounds the movie with a square decency that's never too pumped-up or cartoonish. Full Review

Rating: 4.5/5 -- The age old trope of Cowboys and Indians is transformed into a vessel for the rage of Indigenous people who've been colonised since the day the British set foot in Australia. Full Review

The production values are first rate and the action, heavenly influenced by old-fashioned westerns, is brutal and perfectly staged. Full Review

Product Description:

A young policeman in a sleepy community comes face to face with a notorious killer his very first day on the job in this Western drama from Australia. Shane Cooper (Ryan Kwanten) is a lawman looking for a more peaceful life for himself and his wife, Alice (Claire van der Boom), who is expecting a child. Cooper takes a job as the constable of a small town called Red Hill without ever visiting the place, and in his first day on the job, his superior "Old Bill" Jones (Steve Bisley) and his colleagues don't seem to think much of Cooper, while the people of Red Hill seem like a quiet bunch who prefer to be left alone. But the calm in Red Hill is shattered when Jones gets word that convicted killer Jimmy Conway (Tom E. Lewis) has escaped from prison. Ten years ago, Jones captured Conway and put him behind bars, and it's expected that he'll be making tracks to Red Hill to get revenge. And their suspicions are correct; shortly after the lawmen load up their weapons and report to their posts, Conway shows up with a shotgun and begins exacting bloody revenge. But later, when Conway gets the jump on Cooper and things don't end as expected, Red Hill's newest peace officer begins to suspect foul play. RED HILL was the first feature film from director Patrick Hughes.
