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.

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.
@@coolhand1964 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.
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.

"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

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

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.
I did Canungra in 1972, my instructors were fresh from Vietnam, in their twenties. Skilled, knowledgeable; really cared for their troops, real men. The course was bloody hard though. When I thought I couldn't go any further I was pushed ten times further. That lesson lasted me all my life and saved it many times. I am now 70. I don't know how that happened. I was only 17 at the time!
Our hospitality mate.
@@BadHonkyTonks I went there too twice. Bugger of a place but good experience.👍🇦🇺
Did Canungra in the early 80's, never wanted to go back there again, heat, hill, and that bloody wait a while bush hahaha, had a chuckle when we walked over the bridge with the yellow line.
I am a retired US Soldier. I always loved working with the Australian and New Zealand troops. In 95, I was in the Sinai with them. I never drank so much in my life. Great guys. Then later years in Afghanistan. I had a special duty assignment and went to Perth, Australia at the SAS base. Again great guys. Great warriors. Beautiful country.
Thanks mate.👍🇦🇺
my grandpa is a retired veteran he tells everyone stories such as when he was in either Vietnam or new guinea when the American's had a shipment of ice cream and everyone at the base grabbed their spoons and took some and came back after each spoon supposedly it was eaten in a day he was in 161 possum squadron

Thank you from an Aussie
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.
haven't seen this movie on tv for many years. It is almost forgotten. A damn shame.
It's an important piece of Aussie cinema, along with Mad Max and The Castle =^)
Good movie. A lot of authenticity and good Aussie squaddie banter. Nice to see the L1A1 again.
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.
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!
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

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
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?

@@michaelmolloy365 thanks! Mr Inbetween has sent me down a Aussie tele rabbit hole 😂
Are you referring to John Jarrett?
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.
What an Aussie classic
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.
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.
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.
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
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
No one drinks Foster in aussie any more, tastes like dishwater so we exported it.
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?
@@wisccheese9257no. It's strait up melodrama. It could have been so much better.
I would say no on that. Plenty of more accurate war movies out there. The combat was laughable. From the guy screaming and no one shutting him up ( they just came off contact and are on a recon patrol) to ambushing 5+ Vietcong and waiting to shoot until one if them spots the SAS. Only hitting 2. And they were literally 20 feet away. And the kicker was the bridge. No one stops on a bridge like that. It's a kill box. Every single soldier should have crossed the bridge and set up positions in case there are more enemy around. Instead they all just stand around smoking cigarettes. Then march off in a group. Lol. Plus Platoon and Hamburger Hill and a Rumor Of War and Casualties Of War, along with others are far more realistic.
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.
@@PeteNThat 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.
That was something guys in the Pacific state often in documentaries lol. This movie was proper shit.
@@coldc7 Because it wasn't a stylised war film, it showed the boredom and chaos of conflict
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 ...
This movie is quite realistic. The way we did LRRP.s etc. Base life. Stealth. Mateship. Did 2 tours.
There are two Anthony Stewarts on the Nominal Rolls, (no Tony Stewart), neither did two tours.
Great Aussie movie, RIP Brian Wenzel

Holy hell, that's Johnny the Boy! Glad he got work aside from Mad Max.
Tim Burns?
He’ll never be like the Nightrider!
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.
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.
An Australian movie classic. Thanks for the upload.😊
Minute 1:16. Wrong Kennedy. It wasn't just your 'rich boys' who cowered at home. If that is the line being pushed the gd Director needed to take a long hard look at who made up the ADF then. We came from over every background and social group. The anti-war movement was pretty much the same. I wont spoil the film but the actors here perhaps like Normie Rowe could have ante'd-up. So let's keep the socialist bs out of it. Indeed, MY service then was a shit load more dangerous than SASR
Classic ! Thanks so much for posting it.
Great Film ... very underrated and not that well known.... pity
The best movie about Aussies ever made proud to be Australian
This movie is a bit over the top. If you don't believe that have a talk to real SAS diggers. For one they didn't wander around the Dat with their grey berets tucked under their epaulettes, they also had their own area known as SAS Hill which also had a Sigs tx/rx shelter up there too. I spent time in Vungers and the Dat during my tour and all I have to show for it is fibrosis of the lungs (pulmonary fibrosis) which is slowly killing me. Such is life. And where are all the rubber trees?
I did a SAS cadre course in the 1980s at H Block Singleton. Having being with them and seen how they operate, I can to the conclusion, that the men in Odd Angry Shot were actually conducting themselves as infantry. SAS dudes told me that in vietnam, it was normal for them to sit and watch for an hour, then sneak to another posi about 100 metres further and sit and watch again for another hour and they avoided confrontations with the dreaded en. The dudes in this movie seemed to walk through the J til they made a contact. They way they moved through the J, all enemy had to do was set up an ambush and broadside them. No escape.
131 Div Loc Bty had their LP 31A situated on top of the hill.
I feel for you to be suffering from such a debilitating disease. Of course the movie is over the top, it is a comedy with some pathos. The tactics are more like infantry or infantry recon than SAS. Aussie SASR in Vietnam, might move 100 metres in one day, squat for several hours and observe to see who comes along, they were not in a large enough formation to take on the enemy. See and not be seen was their code. As you probably know, their berets are sandy brown (light brown, grey berets in Aussie army are worn by nurses)
Best Vietnam movie of all. Compare the distress of the soldiers after their first action to the nonchalance after their last.
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.

Most of the extras were soldiers at the Land Warfare Centre and I believe were accurate TTPs of the time.
This has NOTHING to do about SASR .
One of the best ten war movies ever made.
Literally NO Australian drinks Fosters..... prove me wrong.. its utter piss.
That is what happens when you put Americans and Aussies together with beer, the next day we help each other with a hangover.
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
In real life, no wife! he batted for the other team.
Up there with “Go Tell The Spartans”, “The Boys of Company C” as one of those alt Vietnam war films.
Try as hard as I might, I just can't imagine Graham Kennedy in the SAS.
Can we get the Boys in Company "C" next
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.
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 TH-cam movie should reflect this is a film about Aussie soldiers in Vietnam.
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.
And thank you for this upload 😊 I’ve watch it so many times and I will watch many times years to come😊❤regards😊
Danger Close: Long Tan was a good Vietnam Movie too
This movie , even though it's a classic Australian movie, its has nothing to do about our SASR. The writer of the movie was a cook in the SAS and only thought how we fought. How do l now you may ask ! I only served 11yrs in the Australian SASR.
I agree with you. I did a cadre course at H Block Singleton in 1983 and came to the conclusion this movie did not show SAS at work. But normal infantry. You may know this name which I mention only cos he has passed on - Frank Sykes, my stick leader. His 2IC (Cpl) you probably know, he was English, talked with private school education accent and had been awarded the wooden spoon of the year award for being in the biggest stirrer in the Regiment! I saw him in action with a Sergeant who could not pronounce etcetera properly. This English chap turned to us Rangers and said 'I cannot stand people who cannot pronounce etcetera properly and f**king digital watches! I am sure you know who I am talking about! BTW I was RAAC.
The movie has humour but it isn't a comedy.
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 ...
vIETNAM 4 PM RAIN TIME
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.
I've never seen this one. I recognized "Johnny the Boy" at the beginning.
Tim Burns from Mad Max?
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".
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.
By the looks of it, Army supplied rotary wings as well, and trucks.
@@keithad6485 Pretty much everything except the actors and the production team and their gear. We even built the camp for them. All the sandbags you see were full of sawdust, except the split ones after the mortar attack.
Fighting for some evil feminists !
Australian mate not English. Graham Kennedy was one of the funniest people ever in Australia🇦🇺🫡
Forgot how good this movie was for low budget.
Minute 37, a fight serious. Where the hell are the senior NCOs and officers? Oh, of course. This is all about the field grunts. According to the movie directors they never went into the field. Well, I have news for them.
Carrying the SLRs long heavy deadly 1 out 3 aint bad.
2:35 Sgt Gilroy/Brian died the other day. He was a decent bloke.
Brian Wenzel? Didn't hear that he had passed on.
Good to see SLR again.
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.

Absolutley love and honour this movie from an Ex ADF member 🇦🇺
The song "Leaving on a Jet Plane" was played from my friends before i joined the ADF in 1985 👍
what a brilliant movie. watched it a few times but not for many years.
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 🤔
Tactical retreat? When? Lol. Outside of how they were walking. Everything else was hilariously bad. From the screaming wounded and no one doing abythibg about him. To the bridge fiasco. That type of bridge is considered a kill box. No cover and the enemy looks right down the middle. And then when they kill the 3 enemy soldiers, they hang out and smoke cigarettes. STILL BEHIND ENEMY LINES! Then march off in a big group. There is barely anything tactical about this movie. And yes i was infantry for 10 years.

Quite a good film, and - given the humour - far more palatable than most of the brutally serious VN war films made from the US perspective. Not to be taken too seriously, of course (ex-soldiers will find plenty to knock), but Thanks for making it available. However, Two months in now and this channel hasn’t corrected the title? I’m not Australian (or American), but I might be a bit pissed if I were! PS Was it misunderstanding the accent, or the imaginary “British participation” in the war that threw you? Sorry 😞
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.
Just a pity with danger close that it wasn't made before 2007, the APC;s prior 2007 were pretty much Vietnam configuration. 2007, the M113 fleet with withdraw for a major upgrade which is what was used in Danger Close. Not a criticism, but wishful thinking on my part (I was an M113 driver then crew commander with the old configured M113s.)

Back home to Sydney and a Succulent Chinese Meal ! (who hell drinks Fosters? Guess if its 20c thats ok)...Great film haven't seen this in many a year .
The procuction values/set design is huge! Very, very sharp Aussie production. Equal to the best from Hollywood. Was it State supported?
Great film thanks. Not so much "Action Comedy War" though.

How can Australians have M-16's with underslung M203's in 1967 when the M203 wasn't in service until 1969.
As an ex Australian soldier I can say the attention to detail in this movie was excellent.
During the range scene, one of the military advisors shot the water barrel.
