VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Console best movie i've ever seen.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

chrisagnew Based on an amazing true story, the film Rise does not disappoint. Iloved this movie and left the cinema with an extraordinary feeling of hope and peace. A film that will make any Aussie proud to claim it. A young man is living life in all the wrong ways and finds himself in a precarious situation. The film is his story of renewal and redemption. A thought provoking movie for teenagers and adults alike. I have recommended it to all my friends and family. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Spare a thought for the man and his family in the story. It was a long hard journey to live the story then make the film.

gsalpa I'm a huge fan about movies based on real life events and of real substance and this movie delivers exactly that. Well written, inspiring story and heart felt performance my both experienced Martin Sacks and his younger co-star Nathan Wilson, who we will see, go on to amazing things. Thoroughly enjoyed this movie and would highly recommend it to all my family and friends. If you enjoy movies that keep you in suspense and anticipation, then you will also enjoy this movie. After reading the negative reviews posted about this movie, I decided I had to register and voice my own view. What happened to this young man could happen to anyone and that's what makes this movie a great watch.

Trudy Allen The best Aussie film I have seen in a long time and one of my favorite movies.its been a long time since I have seen an Australian movie this good.I have seen it countless times.A super talented Aussie cast who portrayed their characters perfectly,a brilliant crew behind the scenes and a soundtrack that showcased some terrific Australian musical talent.I laughed,I cried,I absolutely love this movie.It's a definite must see movie.It definitely pulls at the heartstrings.A very moving true story.Fantastic work Mack and everyone else involved.To those who haven't seen it yet,do yourself a favor and watch it,you won't be sorry.

hobbsey123 This movie is extremely touching. I've never left a cinema feeling more rewarded! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching RISE to anybody needing to be uplifted. A few laughs, tears and a sense of walking out taller than when you walked in. With a budget this small, I'm blown away that not only was there quality talent but the music choice was perfectly placed to compliment the emotions for each scene. Well done to Nathan Wilson (Will McIntyre) and Martin Sacks (Jimmy Cove) Nathan Wilson - an up and comer set to reach some height in the entertainment industry. Congratulations! On another note, it makes you remember that not everyone who goes to jail is guilty. So often it appears people are 'guilty until proved innocent' rather than the other way round. My hope is that people in all walks of life will be positively impacted by this story. The world needs more uplifting films like RISE and I'm not surprised that this film has ruffled the feathers of people who would prefer to watch films that promote hopelessness, death and zombies.
