If you want to see David Wenham do a complete opposite of his "Noble Faramir" in Lord of the Rings, THIS is the flick - his itchy, twitchy Johnny Spit is priceless as the junkie who isn't quite the dumbass he appears to be. A fun movie that is amazing heart-warming, considering the characters are all cons and ex-cons! If you're looking for a funny comedy that pokes gentle fun at the hard time criminals have getting away from the old life, you'll enjoy this. This is a super little Aussie movie that it is a crying shame isn't available in Region 1. I had to watch a friend's, and wish there was some way I could get my hands on my own.

Just saw the last two-thirds of this movie on the Sundance channel. Neat, clever Aussie comedy, with good acting and directing--a great "feel good" movie with the almost good guys winning over the bad guys. Very entertaining. Tried to find it online so I could see it all, but alas, not gonna happen until it is released in USA DVD format.

Usual for Aussie movies mix of naivety, crime, copulating, drug-issues, kicking-the-faces and swearing resulted in a-little-with-reality easy-watching police comedy disclosing unwillingly a gray empty nothing-upon-a-life to do existence of an-even-ethnic-majority-belonged commoners in Australia.

Nice performance and music add to entertaining side of this movie.
