In the humid jungles of Vietnam circa 1967, a team of hardened Australian SAS regiment soldiers navigate the harsh realities of war. Amidst the monotonous routines of camp life and grueling long-range patrols, they face eerie stretches of silence interrupted only by the sudden chaos of raids and ambushes, often with nothing to show but their frayed nerves. Mortar barrages haunt their nights, the enemy lurking unseen. As comrades fall and others are scarred by firefights and booby traps, these soldiers persevere, grappling not only with the enemy but also the rigid constraints of military bureaucracy. They fight, gather intelligence, and reclaim territory, only to watch it slip away again. Now, upon the precipice of their return to civilization, they grapple with the bittersweet prospect of resuming the lives they once knew, forever changed by the crucible of war.

Graham Kennedy was outstanding in this movie. Gone, but not forgotten.
Absolutely
I remember watching blankety blanks which he was the host and he mentioned they where filming 🎥 this. Go away film a bit come back do the weeks worth of shows yhen off again. Great Australian personality
for an old bloke known for comedy and 'variety', and despite being old and chubby - he does a bloody great job in this, makes you forget what he was known for. Sad that he didn't act more. He was brilliant.
@@Eric-kn4yn yeah fuck yeah
@@OldFellaDave Completely right. Don't know why our society doesn't praise our talent more. Many went overseas. The tall poppy syndrome was always a stupid notion that was never renounced.
Graham Kennedy was one of the funniest men. He was an immense talent, who, if he had lived in the USA, would no doubt have been a major star. RIP Mr. Kennedy.
You’re right, they love Rock Spiders over there.
@@mynameisnobody211 Since when was Kennedy a rock spider? He was gay but who says he was a pedo? You should get your facts straight.
@@mynameisnobody211 PS. They only call them rock spiders in the Australian prison system. They wouldn't know what you were talking about in the States
@@violinoscar They call them that on the streets too mate.
I’ve never been to prison.
@@violinoscar He was an infamous pedo, do some research.
Just because you didn’t know about it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
The larrikinisms, the humour, all worthwhile as an in sight into Australian culture of the 60s and 70s.
Great to see so many Aussie actors so young.
Graham Kennedy is great and im sure some of the one liners were ad libbed.
The whole trashy movie was ad .libbed
Shame Australia is nothing like this anymore, too americanised and snowflake filled
@@Eric-kn4yn Yes and no. The original book it was based on was a buggered if I can written diary. Something you could read in minutes. So yes, and no.
Kennedy was far to old to be a true representative.
I love this larkin Australian way and I'd trade it in a heartbeat for the bullshit political correctness.
With all the war movies out there, this is one of the very few that shows the proper conduct of a patrol and actions on contact with an enemy force. Probably had some salty advisors on the set.
It was filmed at the jungle warfare centre in Canungra. Having a lot of actual soldiers and their instructors on hand would have helped. I think there’s a thank you in the credits.
The bloke driving the rover and giving then the forks is a mate of mine. Apparently they needed an extra and he was handy.
absolutely not it was completely undisciplined and loud
@@clydewmorganNot amongst Australian Troops mate, I worked with many Australian Vets throughout my life, and they often watched the US conscripts in horror. Australian troops spent 12 months in training before they were even allowed in the Country. You do not know what you are talking about.
Edit: The air insertion of the Patrol was done by serving troops at the time. Australia still had Huey's in service, both with the Army (161 Recce Squadron) and the RAAF at the time of filming.
@@lukewise1227 He means in the movie we're watching, not the actual SAS. In movies they ham stuff up and are way louder and dramatic than anyone would be in said setting.
@@isntimportant The comment does not specify this movie, and if you care to watch the movie, all Patrol scenes with a chance of contact, communication is done with whispers, or hand signals only.
Good movie. A lot of authenticity and good Aussie squaddie banter. Nice to see the L1A1 again.
Thanks for posting this movie up. It’s good to see films that are not being shown anywhere because of being hidden, or just considered old.
Thank you to all the diggers who went to Vietnam.
May the LORD grant you all with peace, serenity, and contentment, of which you all deserve.
Welcome home, and most sincere thanks and respect for your service and sacrifices.
.LEST WE FORGET.
Bob. Australia.
Two million Vietnamese people were murdered by the invaders.
@mikemurray2027
Unfortunately, death is the outcome of war, and innocent people are a large part of all war deaths.
Please remember that it is old people in government who send young people to die.
I have a huge respect for the Vietnamese people and wish them good health, prosperity, and long, peaceful lives.
Blame the politicians, not the soldiers.
Be safe, well, free, and blessed.
Bob. Australia.
@@jackinabox8497 there's a box with a handle and a bunch of feathers in there for ya, mate.
@@mikemurray2027 And millions more by the CPV. And you might want to read up on what happened in the neighbouring countries. In comparison, Vietnam came of light due to the international pressure on the South Vietnamese and their allies. Further to which, Vietnam afterwards became comparatively friendly to the West and lightened their aggression against the non-communist factions within Vietnam due to the greater threat posed by, and that remains today, by Communist China.
@@sa25-svredemption98 I'm sorry, but all deaths caused by invasion are laid at the door of the aggressor. That's the law.
In Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, not to mention Korea, the aggressor was the US and its vassals, like Australia.
Also, just a reminder, because it seems to be necessary, it's got nothing to do with the USA or Australia, what sort of government other countries choose. And certainly not from countries that have both carried out actual genocides against the indigenous people.
No one knows how many were murdered inside Australia and the USA. But it is evidently many millions in each case.
Thank you, this is one of, if not the best, realist war film Australia or any other country has made, it didn't glorify or bullshit, it just told a story, to all our diggers thank you
Is danger close the best?
As a veteran and Scot in SA ... was having a shit day then just happened to come across this movie ... could relate to it ... Really enjoyed watching ... The Australian films where and are always well made ... Thanks for uploading ...
Bloody brilliant film. Watched this in basic training, and was then years later lucky enough to go down under and serve with the RADF. Diggers ( aka AJs) are bloody good soldiers. I think the title of this CZcams movie should reflect this is a film about Aussie soldiers in Vietnam.
One of the most honest and accurate war movies ever. Note how Saving Private Ryan stole the "Let them burn" line.
Sure. One of the most common phrases in war, and Pvte Ryan stole it from Odd Angry.
@@peteralia661 First time I ever heard it on screen unless you can correct me?
@@MrLorenzovanmatterho So you've seen every war move ever made. Got it.
I thought he said " Let Him Burn"
I appreciate the accuracy they put into their patrol techniques. Reminds me of the Infantry Scout Platoon and later Special Reconnaissance missions we trained on. I don't think they'll ever be a movie that gets it 100% right, but this one is pretty good.
SSG. U.S. Army (Medically Retired) Infantry / Sniper / SOF Intel (SOT-A), multiple tours Iraq and Afghanistan.
They won't seemingly, to you, "get it right" until they make a film that has advisors from your actual unit mate. SOP's and tactics get taught to you out of basic, then get refined in corps training when you get to your Reg' and so on, right? Not to mention differences internationally and evolution over time. I reckon this is pretty accurate as a period piece -from my perspective halfway between that war and yours, and from the commonwealth. JMTC
It was filmed at the Canungra land warfare centre with the aid of their troops and instructors. So its about as accurate as they could have made it with what they had at the time.
Note too the FAL L1A1 shown.A very versatile weapon. Particulary so in the hands of a well trained jungle fighter.
9th Infantry
7th SF Grp
ARVN 1972-1975
18D30 E 7
Roll On Cassions
Most of the extras were soldiers at the Land Warfare Centre and I believe were accurate TTPs of the time.
Someone knew what they were doing or was over there, the heal, blade toe movement, the tactical retreat, rear security, slow moving very cautious, not this jump around rolling one arm shooting crap. I was on a jungle once in my life, that hell hole sucks the water right out of you, and it is so so so dark. It's like the darkest place on earth man! How these guys spent HOW LONG there in that shit is beyond me, in a war to boot!! They are unbelievable people! Just surviving in those conditions and wow everything is the jungle seems like it wants to kill you man!!! That Jody board is a killer. Dark humor we use to have bets of who would be the last to lose their girl or who the next guy would be. Way better men than I could ever be! Very good movie ty!
And years later Bill changed his name to Mick and lived a quiet peaceful life in the Australian outback, enjoying rainwater off a Top End roof....😉
you beat me to it.
Which movie is that?
@@garethfergusson9538 Wolf Creek...😁
@@michaelmolloy365 thanks! Mr Inbetween has sent me down a Aussie tele rabbit hole 😂
"The Odd Angry Shot" is NOT - I repeat, NOT - an "English" movie. It is Australian. About the Australian experience in the Vietnam War. More particularly - the SAS (as in the first line).
SAS - Australian ?? 😂😂😂
FYI mate, when they write English Full Movie, they mean it’s a movie in english, full length film. Not having a crack, just clarifying. Cheers
@@lynnecromack4933 Special Air Service Regiment Australian Army, has several Australian Victoria Cross recipients from the Afghanistan situation.
@@lynnecromack4933 Australian SAS Regiment
New Zealand SAS Regiment, Rhodesian SAS Regiment, C (Rhodesian ) Squadron 22 SAS, Canadian SAS (yes there was), French SAS, Belgian SAS, International Squadron SAS, and a few more yes and all top line
@@robshirewood5060too bad the Canadian SAS didn’t last more than a couple of years
Holy hell, that's Johnny the Boy! Glad he got work aside from Mad Max.
One of the best war movies ever made. Definitely one of the best for Vietnam. It’s amazing how the experiences of going to war seem to not change, just the location 🤔
What an Aussie classic
A jump into hell = the French, the green berets = the Americans, An odd angry shot = the Australians
The 317th Platoon - Also French, withe Bruno Cremer of the Maigret series. It's fantastic.
Phantoms of the Jungle
Sleeping with your ears open
and others
Hamburger Hill or We Were Soldiers is a better picture of the US.
"For once we where smart enough not to play"......,the British.
@@larry648We Were Soldiers was pure propaganda. In reality the Battle of the la Drang valley was a complete clusterfck for the Americans. They flew into a LZ that they never even secured in 3 days, got shot to hell, and then left again. Only the US could turn that disaster into a patriotic victory on the silver screen.
p.s that last charge up the hill that so heroically 'won' the battle in the movie never happened. That was just another case of Mel Gibson inventing his own version of history 'based on a true story'.
The special effects (and budget) were impressive though
Fitting that I found this today Brian Wenzel died yesterday aged 95.
Played Bills father.
His mother was in the ten network TV series Prisoner. The young bloke with the curly brown hair played Johnny the boy in the movie Mad Max and he's sill alive.
DANGER CLOSE is a great movie on LONG TAN and Aussies in Vietnam. The ODD ANGRY SHOT has a lot of top Aussie actors. Comparing the Yank and Aussie approach to combat is interesting. Saw this when first released and i think it has worn well.
Danger Close is a terrible movie.
The main unit involved in making the movie was 10IRC, stationed at the 'Jungle Training Centre', Canungra, Queensland. They provided the extras and some advice about various military issues. Had a good time too.
Great Aussie movie, RIP Brian Wenzel
That is what happens when you put Americans and Aussies together with beer, the next day we help each other with a hangover.
The scenes at the Vung Tau barracks were filmed at the Anzac Rifle Range in Malabar, Sydney near where I used to live.
The final scenes were filmed at The Watson's Bay Hotel, Watsons Bay. When they look over towards the Sydney CBD, you can see Centrepoint Tower which was finished in 1978 & wasn't around at the time of the Vietnam War.
I think it was filmed at canungra. I know some of the blokes in the mess scenes. They where 6 rar guys at canungra
@@Mizone505 Yeah most of it was filmed at Canungra like the camp & jungle scenes. I lived virtually next door to the Anzac rifle range where they filmed the hospital & post office scenes. Those huts aren't there today. You can't half tell it's the rifle range as the distance range is in the background of the actors & Maroubra Bay.
@@1969Risky yeah your dead right mate. And at least real live rds used when bung is shooting up the 44 gal drum I think one of tom berengers sniper movies was done at canungra too. The boozer scene .
Yeah-your right,-used to be owned by "doyles"--Ive had plenty of "grog"-at that joint !!over the years !!
Centrepoint was finished in 1982.
A super Australian film. Thanks!!
This needs to be watched by more Americans great movie dont know how accurate it is but still really good movie
@@thedude4762 Only 4 SASR died in Vietnam
Trashy production.
Haven't seen this in years. Always had fond memories of it, and for good reason - it's a great war movie and all the better for the Aussie humour. Us poms may take a bit of friendly piss when the cricket's on, but your diggers in Vietnam: total respect.
in iraq we.fought camel spiders against scorpions.. a buddy caught a mouse and we thought it would be a blood bath and the mouse would get killed.. we were all wrong.. the mouse ate.everything and there literally was nothing left but a fat belly mouse. so like any gladiator of old we set him free as he had earned it.
LOL! Dude, I did that as a kid, my brother and I would search the shoreline for the most badass crabs we could find, pit them against each other in an octagon made of high walled sand, the champ was not only freed but also fed.
Then he got run over by a passing humvee.🤣
Fantastic. I miss this sort of stuff. Watch OAS with a smile from ear to ear.
@@python27auin south Afirca we call them sun spiders or a solafuge. It beat everything until the giant centipede..
Lies
I like the speech about the guy without a silver spoon in his mouth fighting the wars. Sound just like the U.S. military.
Sounds like UK USA Canada and all of the EU and NATO to me mate
@@robshirewood5060 UK? I did 6 in the U.S. Air Force Security Police, that would be the Royal Air Force Regiment to you.
Also the line about each sides soldiers being 'just as shit scared as the other side' was the line that remained foremost in my memory when I first saw the movie in the cinema.
More Tinnies Than Bottle ?😂😅
Seriously.
I'm a Vet. so Respect To Them All....
Up there with “Go Tell The Spartans”, “The Boys of Company C” as one of those alt Vietnam war films.
O was in Kanungera(?)a short time after this film was filmed there. Most of the extras were from a platoon that was stationed there to demonstrate things, ambush, moving in jungle, etc. Funny to see it again, I was in the 10th battalion RSAR, 19 at the time. Nice spot there, beautiful tree ferns everywhere.
An important scene near the end, that shows the build up to Bryan Brown's character being blown up by a mine and the immediate aftermath, has been deleted from this cut of the movie. This isn't the original film in its entirety.
This movie is quite realistic. The way we did LRRP.s etc. Base life. Stealth. Mateship. Did 2 tours.
Classic ! Thanks so much for posting it.
Great Film ... very underrated and not that well known.... pity
Best Vietnam movie of all. Compare the distress of the soldiers after their first action to the nonchalance after their last.
Looks like they had more Fosters than ammo.
I worked with a US veteran who told a story about getting a dollar from every man in the unit then flying to an Aussie base and buying a pallet of beer (he was helicopter maintenance) They then went to couple of different bases and swapped the beer for steak and lobster as the best beer in Vietnam was Australian so you got a good price for it.
That night every man in the unit got steak lobster and two Australian beers. Which was about as good as a US serviceman could get at the time (or so the story goes)
The point of all that being, yes they probably did have more beer than ammo
Remember watching this movie at the drive in late 70'swith two mates one ex nasho and the other ex reg not ex Vietnam. Good movie holds up well.
I've watched this movie at least 10 times, fab.
Looking forward to seeing Danger Close.
We forget, and sadly so many don't even know that the diggers punched well above their weight in Vietnam.
One of the best ten war movies ever made.
As well as they did with the rest of the film, I always thought the end was brilliant, it showed how jarring it must have been to come from a war zone in a country very different from your own, back home in a matter of hours. Hardly surprising so many servicemen came back damaged and found it extremely hard to adjust.
In one of those Mandella Effect things I remember this movie when it first came out and I remember it as a Fosters beer commercial. Now its VB
Yes absolutely you’re right.
I wish we had our old reality back, before CERN.
Brilliant thanks very much for the film love this film watched with me dad in the 1980s. Brings back memories that k you so very much
great movie . Great acting from all especially Gra Gra ( Graham Kennedy ) for you non-Australians. For mentioning his wife who does a lovely cashier number 3,4,5 please etc sound recording at my local Harris farm tonite ( Rachel Ward) I got for my sins from also mentioning her husband Brian Brown . He ( Gra Gra ) always played kinda sad tragic figures. Possibly echoed his life . One day his wife was there next she was gone/ He just walked away. True acting
what a brilliant movie. watched it a few times but not for many years.
lol Graham Kennedy was 45 when this movie was made. The worlds oldest corporal 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
and chubbiest SAS trooper ;)
Hey Ray, glad you are still kicking mate.
John Wayne was 62 when he made The Green Berets. Granted his character was a colonel but he was a little to round to be running around the jungle behind enemy lines. This is a much better film.
Queen's Corporal
Is it good? Tell me it´s good and i watch the whole movie. It starts off OK, i will give it some time in the moment since it gave off the right vibes straight away.
I get to watch the whole movie, a whole movie for free, no commercials. It´s now i should type "thanks".
I have got this magnificent dvd this movie is one in a million you wont ever get cast like this one every again this movie is Gold
And thank you for this upload 😊 I’ve watch it so many times and I will watch many times years to come😊❤regards😊
Great Film - thank you Sue Milliken
very cool Australian movie. we never forget....
The “fitters and turners” line has served me well over the years….
This was brilliant, and very relevant to my interests. Up there with the 317th Platoon for me. Glad I got randomly recommended this from watching some goofy '80s B-movie, even if I don't quite see the connection.
A very enjoyable classic
This is a classic❤😊 ❤😊
Excellent depiction, great movie.
Bloody good film
Still a great move, watched it a few times since the 80,s
Oh this is a great movie 🎬 🎞 🎥 😊
Thanks CZcams recommends
Australian mate not English. Graham Kennedy was one of the funniest people ever in Australia🇦🇺🫡
I really enjoyed this thanks
One of my all time favourite movies.
Moved to Sài Gòn in Feb 2000
Vietnamese son & I do private tours to places depicted here*: Vũng Tàu; Nui Đất; Long Tân; Long Hải Hills; Đất Đỏ; Lông Xuyên; etc.
*filmed mostly around Canungra JWC ~ or whatever it's called these days ~ not on locations depicted
No way!...lol.. I love this movie. Last time I saw it was probably...5 years ago?
How many Brews quaffed in the last 5 years?
Great movie, great cast.
best movie ive watched to date
Thank you Australia. I worked with 2 Aussies on a radar hill top for a month.

I live in tropical qld and when it rains i still say,what can you set your watch by Harry...... nobody gets it,now i can finally bloody show them the odd angry shot.
I think they filmed at JWTC at Canungra too.
A couple of my lifelong mates and I say the same thing whenever we get together (too rarely nowadays) and it rains ...

Great admiration to 1RAR, Malaya 61/63, Bob. 6PL BCoy 1RNZIR.( 84yo May 30 2024.)
Excellent movie.
Good to see SLR again.
I've never seen this one. I recognized "Johnny the Boy" at the beginning.
Great film thanks. Not so much "Action Comedy War" though.
Hard to believe this kid will grow up to be crazy murderous sniper in WOLF CREEK.
I love aussie humour.
Very nice film.
The most realistic war movie ever made.
Can we get the Boys in Company "C" next
Man i gotta go buy this movie for the collection i havent seen this since i was a kid watching this on channel 9 after hey hey its Saturday .remember those days guys?
Even Alf is in it.
Superb film
Whoa... 😊
As a member the USA Army, I had always heard tales that the Australian Army one of the feared and most hated of the Armies that fought, because they were known for cutting off the ears of the enemy, they had killed and kept them as war trophies. That's just the rumors that I was told.
It was filmed at canungra
7.14, I remember the old 750ml steel Vic bitter cans, great to throw compared to the aluminium ones :)
A great Australian movie.
The first part of this is like an australian version of mash lol
Carrying the SLRs long heavy deadly 1 out 3 aint bad.
1967, I enlisted in the RAN. By the end of the year and the earls next, I was in Vietnam along with my yearmates. I reckon God Help Me I Was Only 19sums it up far better
Reading the comments section for all the hilarious comments from the armchair warriors.😂
حلو كتير
2:35 Sgt Gilroy/Brian died the other day. He was a decent bloke.
Where was this filmed? Nobody rver seems to sweat. Ofyen looks like forest, not jungle. Bloody good film nonetheless
فلم حربي جميل جدا
Big Bad and Very Mad......ya got that right
Minute 1:06:00. moves and the tall poppy brigade put officers down. The Lieutenant has seen the soldier's distress and has acted spot on. No smart arse, no snide comments, stay clear but be with the guy's folks right with him. People want to make smart comments but we care for our people.
Excellent movie. Shame about all the gum trees around the base.
Every war movie I've seen that involves wearing a beret, this one got it right.
The yanks wear it like bloody dorks.
My father would have loved to see this again so ill watch it again for him.
I'm a Yank and could not agree more about how our guys wear berets.
Not a bad movie.
I met up with aussi SAS, great bunch of guys.
glad you enjoyed it
