The Jammed

"It deserves to be seen by everybody"
David Stratton.
AT THE MOVIES. David & Margaret 

David & interview with Dee

As the story races on, the meaning of the film's title becomes harrowingly accurate. 4½ stars 
George Palathingal, Sydney Morning Herald

The Age - Jim Schembri

Centered on an ordinary young woman-turned-rescuer of victims, pic's integrity and committed performances should spark strong fest interest and generate discussion of a supremely ugly subject.
Variety, Richard Kuipers review

Culturewars article on the impact of The Jammed

The Jammed is a fast, thudding, ultra-timely expose, a bucket of icy cold water thrown on the groggy, ambivalent face of public conscience
Luke Buckmaster, In Film Australia.

The Jammed is a hard-hitting action drama with a compassionate heart.  Cinephilia.net.au Review by Bernard Hemingway

A fine, compelling drama which has something profoundly relevant to say about contemporary Australian society.  Urban Cinephile Review
 

Still one of last year's most accomplished Australian productions, it is a confronting film deemed too hard to sell but which audiences clearly want to see.  Sydney Morning Herald DVD review. Full review by Jacqui Taffe.

JJJ review by Mark Fennel

 

Just when it was beginning to look like a ho-hum year for Australian film, along comes The Jammed, a low-budget, locally made shock of electricity that further restores one's faith in just how good Australian social-realist films can be.
