ALL PRIOR COMMENTS ARE COMPLETELY CORRECT!!!
Dear JESUS!!!
Yes, I've actually watched this abomination. What a heap of *beep*
I definitely had trepidation watching the trailer, and -admittedly- whilst doing so, I wondered what the "gimmick" would be.
Australian films ALL have one... in the nineties/early noughties, it was swearing --in the trailer. Seriously; look at any trailer from that time for an
"Aussie" film that wasn't intended for the Hollywood market, and the F-Bomb is in there.
When, however, this trailer didn't deliver in this department (though it certainly did in every other that one could name!!!) said gimmick was certainly visible by the end. TWO directors!!! Yep! Down here in Aussie, we can't POSSIBLY make a film the normal way, any more than we can cut a trailer without cliché nor profanity. Indeed, it took not one, but TWO directors to bring this excrement to the screen.
To anyone who invested, backed or believed in this pile of *beep* from its conception, I LAUGH in the face of your failed "investment", be it monetary or otherwise.
Particularly, though, if the former; just as I did the gormless morons who invested in the equally atrocious "Kangaroo Jack" when it was floated on the stock exchange (?!?) back in 1993.
There ARE better scripts from Australian writers. MUCH better.
There ARE better directors than these two imbeciles, who, honestly, could not direct a piss up in a brewery.
Garbage like this is why we are regarded as lowly as we are in the film industry, and why all of our talent want nothing more than to bolt for the hills... those of the Hollywood variety.
