Gregor Jordan

The Profile

Australian film director known for feature films including Two Hands and Ned Kelly.

Gregor Jordan directed Ned Kelly (film reviewed here), which stars Heath Ledger, Naomi Watts, Orlando Bloom and Geoffrey Rush; the DeBaser review by Hellring (2009) praises Klaus Badelt's soundtrack and landscape cinematography while criticizing the screenplay and giving the film a 3/5 rating.

DeBaser's review of Gregor Jordan's Ned Kelly praises visuals, landscape representation and Klaus Badelt's score, while faulting a weak, sometimes simplistic screenplay. Performances are uneven: Ledger and Bloom are noted as pillars, while Naomi Watts and Geoffrey Rush are seen as less effective. Overall a well-shot but imperfect historical film.
