After Julia dies in front of J's eyes from a self-inflicted heroin overdose, J, who is slightly detached from life, feels he has no choice but to contact his maternal grandmother, Janine "Smurf" Cody, the family matriarch, for a place to live. Smurf rules the family with a borderline incestuous love over her three sons, the quietly menacing Andrew "Pope" Cody, the hyperactive Craig Cody, and the barely of age Darren Cody. Pope and his best friend, Barry "Baz" Brown, are armed robbers, with Darren their up and coming apprentice, while Craig is a mid level drug dealer. Melbourne's Armed Robbery Squad is after specifically Pope, who is hiding out. But when the standoff between the Codys and the Armed Robbery Squad is brought up a notch, an all out war ensues, with some casualties and J caught in the middle. The ...

I barely made it halfway through the movie. I don't know how such a great TV series came out of such a horribly boring movie. - @Sunday, September 23, 2018 10:23 AM

You know what would be great? If you didn’t keep plastering edification from apparently important publications and journalists, and just let the trailer speak for itself. I don’t care about who likes it or what they have to say about it. Just let me watch the trailer. Idiots. - @Sunday, July 22, 2018 11:01 PM

What a strange and misleading trailer. Its all pulpy and loud, giving it an action vibe... Whilst in reality this movie is pretty subdued and dark... insanely underrated film... - @Tuesday, June 19, 2018 10:01 PM

Great film, I think the family in this are similar to the Irish Moran family in Melbourne during that Gangland war between the 90’s and 00’s - @Tuesday, February 20, 2018 5:03 PM

If it won any Sundance awards it means it's left-wing, conventional and doesn't challenge the views of the establishment. - @Saturday, October 21, 2017 2:24 AM

I finally watch this film last night. So glad that I never saw a trailer. Spectacular film with stupendous performances all around. On of those films what sticks with you after seeing it. Very powerful stuff. - @Saturday, February 11, 2017 1:24 AM

oh the original was from Australia? No thanks. I can't watch Australians do anything without feeling disgusted. I have no respect for the Australian culture after meeting so many douche bag Australians when traveling and in business. I just assume they are all drunk criminal assholes. - @Sunday, October 2, 2016 7:25 AM

This is easily 1 of the best Aus films in the last 10 years. We make alot of good films you just need to search for them. EG: snowtown. - @Friday, May 27, 2016 3:03 PM

Why anyone would think this was a good movie doesn't register with me. A bunch of depressed, glum, dull witted, uninteresting drug addicted simpletons in a family headed by a sociopathic mother was not what I was expecting from this "critically acclaimed "film"". A bunch of trashy, ignorant, unintelligent murderers. Disgusting. I knew what the ending was going to be before it even happened. If you didn't figure it out beforehand you're just as dull witted as the characters in the "film". Absolute garbage and so very depressing. I now have a headache. - @Monday, February 1, 2016 1:09 AM

Loved the film, but that's a really crappy trailer that doesn't represent the film well at all. But all the performances in the film were great. Jacki Weaver and Ben Mendelsohn especially. I live in Melbourne, and it captured the feel of the city well also. - @Wednesday, August 26, 2015 11:54 PM

ill say this only once, this movie is so effin dull and stupid, do urself a favor and dont watch it. The only interesting character with some backbone dies within the first 20 min of the movie. The main character is stupid, dull, uninteresting, sucks at acting and i could go on forever. There's so many stupid mistakes/choices he makes, that just makes u keep asking why? and makes u want to shoot him. it's full of dumb characters and dumb choices. sadly this movie was praised by film critics and either got nominated or won some awards that it totally doesn't deserve - @Sunday, July 5, 2015 4:29 PM

It's hard to watch Pope as such a ruthless fuck after seeing him in The Place Beyond The Pines. He's such a cool character in that film, but here he's a psycho. It's tough. - @Monday, October 13, 2014 9:43 AM
