This groundbreaking film reveals the truth surrounding Australia’s love-hate relationship with its beloved icon. The kangaroo image is proudly used by top companies, sports teams and as tourist souvenirs, yet when they hop across the vast continent some consider them to be pests to be shot and sold for profit. KANGAROO unpacks a national paradigm where the relationship with kangaroos is examined.

Kangaroo: A Love-Hate Story Audience Reviews

Bereamic Awesome Movie
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
kiwilys A disturbing, thought provoking documentary that makes one re-examine perceptions and assumptions regarding Australia's lack of protection for this unique, indigenous animal and also to question why Kangaroo meat is still on supermarket shelves with such dangerously high levels of salmonella and e coli present. I am not surprised that this film has stirred mixed emotions for many in such a short time. A very difficult watch but an absolute must-see.
bentjap I grew up in the bush so was interested to see this movie. After the first 10 minutes I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Some of the "facts" were so far from the truth that I was stunned. The makers of this film must not have done any research before filming began or were more concerned with shocking the uneducated public. There was no mention of the fact that the Kangaroo population is now over 45 million. Yes some sub species are endangered due to introduced pests like cats & dogs. The industry is highly regulated with huge fines for breaches. I just wish the general public knew the REAL story. Not what was portrayed in this film.
mdervin-75596 Australians all must face the ugly truth of the kangaroo industry, its truly disturbing. I didn't want to watch it but I am glad I did. We all need to be informed. It's also beautifully shot with a great score and very interesting interviews. Highly recommended.
