Ned Kelly (Ned Kelly, Outlaw) (1970)

My Rating

Movie Info

Ned Kelly (Mick Jagger) is the legendary outlaw of the Australian outback sought by authorities for stealing horses. At age 20, Ned has already served a three-year prison term at hard labor. When Ned's mother (Clarissa Kaye) is arrested and jailed on a bogus murder charge, Ned offers to surrender in exchange for his mother's freedom. When the authorities refuse, the Kelly brothers go on a robbing rampage. Cornered by the law in a saloon, Ned's brothers commit suicide rather than be taken alive.

PG, 1 hr. 40 min.

Clunky, slow Mick Jagger starrer directed by Tony Richardson.

Curiously though, as it so often does, the rare convergence of everything gone wrong makes for pretty compulsive viewing.

... Since MGM offers no extras on the disc, its appeal will be limited to fans of (Mick) Jagger.

This film is worth seeing for those who want to see what Mick Jagger looks like when sporting an Abe Lincoln beard.

Audience Reviews for Ned Kelly (Ned Kelly, Outlaw)

An interesting movie, which tries to show that Mick Jagger is a brilliant actor, I wouldn't say he's that good, but he's alright. The story is pretty good. It's a pretty good movie, but it could be better.

I enjoyed it because I tend to like Westerns, and this is one, even if it's Australia rather than the US. The movie struggles along though, so unless you are a fan of Jagger or the Western genre don't bother.
