The life and legend of the late-19th-century Australian bushranger get a fanciful but fierce retelling in this action-packed take on the Peter Carey novel, as a pushed-too-far Ned Kelly (George MacKay)-mentored since boyhood by the notorious outlaw Harry Power (Russell Crowe)-wreaks his revenge against the civil authorities who oppressed his family. Stylish historical adventure also stars Nicholas Hoult, Charlie Hunnam, Essie Davis, Thomasin McKenzie. 124 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
