As a typically labeled 'Wog' myself, I feel it's relatable, with the humor in reality and all... so it's a classic to me already. I don't care what others think. I don't need a label or brand upon the movie to dictate anything.
But I guess most of the others in Australia (non-wogs) they don't really see anything funny, because they're lifestyle, was a bit more different, and the way they interacted through their social life wasn't the same. So it may be a little confusing. And that's understandable.
All in all, I enjoyed it. It's really a "like it or not" kinda movie.

It's an ordinary movie, did have a few decent laughs in it though.

Not a 5.4 but not a classic either. Somewhere between 6 and 7 would be fair. Decent enough movie, entertaining, funny but not too stupid.

I am a non-wog and found this film to be one of the funniest Australian films I have seen. Some things I laughed out loud at was:-
The debate about who would win a fight between Jean-Claude Van Damme and Hercules.
When the guy being chased by Tony the Yugoslav runs into the woman's bathroom, and the following dialouge occurs.
Woman:- "What are you doing here?"
Man being chased:-"Shut and wash your hands, you unhygenic bitch!"
Also, liked the Ministry of Employment where it is a bigger bludge than the workforce it investigates.
