Different opinions.
There are different opinions about this movie.
Is it worth watching it?
I really liked it. Not really a romance. It's more of a realistic drama involving the youth of today with no future.

We got this out on DVD and I left the room after 30 minutes. I found it boring, unoriginal, unfunny and a total waste of time.
Life is too short for lame movies.
I thought it was good, I know people in my area who can relate to the main characters, just because it's focused on the West doesnt mean it's about the West.
I thought that was the obvious point, alas some can't understand that.
I thought it was good and it held my attention.
It was a little heavy handed in some areas re dialogue but I still enjoyed it immensely.
I watched this film at the premiere in Sydney last year.. I quite liked it . Yes this film is a little cliqued in certain aspects but its a story that I and many not only the western suburbs of Sydney but country towns could/can relate too . I purchased the DVD and watched it agian among friends whose thoughts were on the positive side . It seems that a few people have bagged it but everybody has there tastes in movies that is democracy for you .
Its important to support the Australian Film Industry crappy films or good ones .The Australian film industries movers and shakers need to have a good look at themselves too.
There are independant films that cant even be screened in Australian film festivals but yet the are winning awards overseas. what the *beep*?
When the broadband system is streaming in real time the internet will be the medium of choice. A revolution will take place in the world of cinema choosing what you want to watch not being forced to watch meaningless crap.
