Review of Mad Dog Morgan (1976) by L. E — 24 Nov 2010
As far as Australian Bushranger Films go, Mad Dan Morgan was one of the very few bushrangers in the 70s to get a film adaptation. Somehow the film is historically flawed, perhaps its hows much historical accuracy is in the script.
Dennis Hopper was a reluctant choice to play the violent outlaw, however theres not much character development in the character that suggest that Australian Bushranger heritage is praised. Apart from that the costumes, settings and cultural backdrop are very good.
The film could have better with more emotion in Hopper's Morgan along with some Historical accuracy to suggest Mad Dan Morgan had more Alias' It is now remembered as one of the many Underated Australian Bushranger film as well as in Hopper's career.
