As a retired Australian Army Officer who trained for the type of battle depicted in this story and having been trained by several of those depicted in this movie, I found Danger Close to be both technically and historically correct. Any student of the Battle of Long Tan will relate to this film. It takes you there and makes one feel that they are really at the scene of the battle. I was impressed by how the film portrayed several incidents which actually happened. While this is a dramatisation I found that it was handled well. It gives one the sense of understanding of what actually happened. This is a landmark production for Australia. It is a film that tells the story, a story which many Australians have heard about but don't understand. I came away feeling deeply moved and will be going back to see it again. I highly recommend it. Truly a story that has to be seen.
