Angelina Jolie's movie 'Unbroken,' based on the subject Louis Zamperini, has drawn positive reaction at its world premiere in downtown Sydney, Australia.
The 137-minute film's one particularly shocking maritime moment and the unrelenting visceral wartime brutality that punctuates Zamperini's tale of survival made the audience gasp audibly, Fox News reported.
The often-intense film is based on the international bestseller 'Seabiscuit' by Laura Hillenbrand and is among the last high-profile Academy Award-eligible films to open Stateside.
The project is set to release on Dec. 25 in the U.S.
