Gallipoli Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Michael Blowen
Gallipoli is a predictable war movie filled with all the gung-ho cliches of the genre -- and I loved it.
Three Movie Buffs
Scott Nash
Although we've seen this story before, it is told exceptionally well here.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Classy and lifeless.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
An anti-war movie at heart, but it's also flush with patriotic pride.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Set in 1915, Weir's excellent anti-war film centers on the disastrous battle of Gallipoli, featuring an excellent performance by Mel Gibson as a young fleet-footed soldier
Turner Classic Movies Online
Sean Axmaker
... deflated the romantic notions of glory under fire to show the reality of Gallipoli and mourn the men who gave up their lives for a war they had no stake in.
Variety
Variety Staff
Against a backdrop broader than his previous outings, Weir has fashioned what is virtually an intimate epic.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
Well acted and, within its limited terms, well made, Gallipoli represents a failure of nerve as well as design.
TV Guide
Both a fitting testimony to the courage of the thousands of Australians and New Zealanders who died fighting for their country and one of the most powerful cinematic examinations of the futility and tragic cost of war.

One of the best war films ever made....a triumph for the AFI
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
Weir goes so far in humanizing Archy and Frank before they head off to the dehumanizing crucible of combat that he commits the greatest sin of all... he's boring
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Weir's work has a delicacy, gentleness, even wispiness that would seem not well suited to the subject. And yet his film has an uncommon beauty, warmth, and immediacy, and a touch of the mysterious, too.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Gallipoli is a powerful World War I drama about some Australian soldiers fighting in Turkey that depicts the horror and tragedy of war.
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
A portrait of WWI that's both personal and epic.
