Reception
[edit]On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 100% based on 4 reviews. [2]
In Time Out, Stephen A. Russell gives it 4 stars and states, "A monument to Australia's thriving music scene, it will have you whooping with joy one minute, then fighting back the tears the next. Destined to become a cult favorite, it prompted this reviewer, who believed his festival days were over, to reconsider hopping into the back of a ute, heading to a bush doof, and getting lit. That’s some achievement." [3] Writing in The Sydney Morning Herald, Paul Byrnes gave it 3 stars, stating, "The movie has deep reserves of energy and spirit. Who cares if it lacks a little polish when it has a strong sense of life?" [4] The Guardians' Luke Buckmaster gives it a 2-star review, finishing, "Overt emotionalizing has a way of corroding everything, turning the best of dramatic intentions (and what film isn’t well intended?) into schmaltzy goo. Young viewers will probably approach six festivals wanting something fun and mildly rebellious, like drinking goon straight from the bag before sneaking into a festival, but discover a maudlin experience instead." [5]
