This review is from: Custodian [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This movie is about a good cop forced to undergo severe hardship in order to do what he knows is right. The dialogue is very natural and excellently performed. The plot is intriguing all the way through. LaPaglia, Weaving, Otto, and the other actors were fantastic. As a die-hard LaPaglia fan, I couldn't be more pleased!

If you're looking for a solid cop story with a touch of heart (but nothing soppy), I highly recommend this film.

The only downside to this movie is it occasionally has slightly cheesy music and a few other hints that it was produced on the cheap. Still, if this is the kind of gem that can come out of inexpensive production, what excuse is left for big studios to turn out so much crap? This movie shows that good writing and acting are the most important parts of any film. See it!

This review is from: The Custodian [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.0 Import - Australia ] (DVD)

Why The Custodian to watch?

It is a rare gleam of an Australian reality, of which lacquer has been taken off by depicting a virtue of policing in Sydney, Australia, well dissolved, according to a movie, in bribery, illegality, sex and all a "mateship" (more known outside Australia term for "mafia") presents.
