Good movie!

I almost didn't watch this because of the low rating , glad I ignored that , found it a very entertaining watch , has quite an underbelly vibe. Edgy funny. Suspenseful and ultimatly sad.

I didn't find it horrific at all. I aimlessly cane across it, watched it. Enjoyed it. I mean sure it's not going to win an Emmy but it happily filled in a few hours. I didn't know anything about this guy and I honestly felt bad for him.

I rarely watch anything made in Australia and this is a prime example why, the acting was bad, really bad. I am not a fan of children in movies and TV and in this mini series they were especially annoying. Give this a miss.

Thought I would try to counter some of the other reviews. Violent criminals are mostly very unpleasant people and this show is full of such people. Paz is not a lovable crim like Ray Shoesmith (Mr Inbertween) Paz is man of low intelligence and high energy trying to climb to the top. He and his colleagues are deeply unpleasant individuals who should be locked up or shot depending on your point of view. They are violent and deeply unpleasant asshats. In that respects they remind me of the characters in Goodfellas, a film I can no longer watch. Much as I love Ray Shoesmith as a character, I hate Paz, I want to see him dead. This is not bad acting, bad acting I wouldn't care. I will admit I find the film hard to watch because the show is full of authentically nasty characters. Anyone who has been on the receiving end of such people would most likely agree (if they are left alive.)

I read online the poor wife asked them not to broadcast this show for her children who are struggling emotionally with their father death. She said the show was not accurate and was filmed without her consent. The shear audacity these incompetent and immoral clowns have shown is disgraceful. If you want to make a film first please do not disgrace the Italian community making two Italians sound like western suburb housos straight out of Fat Pizza. Racist and unethical, Channel 7 and Roadshow should be called Australian Pranksters after this stunt. If you are going to make a film based on a so called True Story make the story true please! Where did these clowns get their facts from exactly? The acting was shocking, the storyline was boring as hell and the set design was even worse! I cannot see what anyone would find as entertaining about this even an ex cop said to the daily mail recently that this show was not based on facts. Just the figment of some sick persons imagination. So the question is what was the point of this? Alot of my friends have said it was a vindictive attack on a widow and her kids after watching this crap I 100% agree.

Some people will find the way the main character talks and acts annoying but anyone that's ever dealt with criminals, will know that this is accurate the ones that hang with lebbo gangsters and Nikie bikies more so act and talk exactly like this. Great show so far.

I dont know why the people in here hating so much! This is a realistic mini movie about the organized crime in Australia. Not a classic but as a fan of the gangster/prison flicks I liked it.
