I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Good concept, poorly executed.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Comedy crime film combines the two genres flawlessly. Loved the Burt Bacharach-origami-chess-Scrabble-loving gangster played by Bryan Brown. And Rose Byrne and Heath Ledger early in their careers are both wonderful. SPOILER: The final shot is of Heath's wide smile. Happy ending.

"Shot before Ledger hit fame, It's far from commercially-tame, "Shotties are good" In the Aussie-style 'hood', Bogan-humour without being lame."Read more limerick reviews or post your own at TheLimerickReview website!About Us:Welcome all to The Limerick Review, For feedback on films; both old and new, We sort classic from crime, In a quick five-line rhyme, Just browse or leave your point-of-view.If there is a film you want reviewed let us know.

This is my favourite Australian film, not because the cinematography, or acting is flawless. Just for heaps of tiny things.Jimmy (Ledger) is an average guy, wanting just a little bit more than the tiny bit he has in life. Pando (Brown) is the quintessentially Australian, crime boss who can give it to him. In the first scene Jimmy's being dragged into the desert by Pando's guys with guns out and stubbies on. We don't know how he got here, but we're about to find out. We're soon introduced to out narrator: A dead guy, digging at some dirt. He explains yin-yang; the good in the bad and the bad in the good.Two hands is part caper, part thriller, and a bit of romance. And it works. It's an unlikely story of bad luck and insane mishaps. Our narrator ghost is there to remind us that the preternatural isn't all that unnatural. Fate happens. No it's not cinematic genius (though Ledger's charismatic smile might count as a masterpiece). It doesn't break boundaries, or overturn canon. But the rough-edged characters are hilarious, the plot never fails to entertain, and I'm not sure there's anything like it floating around...Watch it. Or watch it again! If you don't ROFL during their "crime spree", you can direct your disappointment this way ;).

It may be that this works and I just cannot get at it because I'm not Australian, but I doubt it.Its rambling, often incoherent nature may be designed as part of the effect, but I doubt that too.Its really quite ambitious, a sort of Tarantino/Richie mix with a bit of coming of age and whole lot of Aussie peculiarity in it. There's a noir intervention by a dead guy.I watched it because it had Heath Ledger as the center, and I was a little curious what with his newly established sainthood. The River Phoenix effect. What we have is a teen goofoff who is asked by the local petty mafia to do something. It goes wrong and a chase ensues. There's a romance, natch. There's a moment where honor is established and justice comes home by an unexpected means. The charm in the thing comes not from the story or the hero, but from the abstract design of the thing. We know what to expect from the very beginning because the font that is used in the titles is that chrome Chevvie script from the late fifties. It might have been used in Australia by Holden. The movie is set in then contemporary time, but it references the fifties in the manner of the film itself and the hoods therein. Don't come to this if what you want is great work from Ledger.Ted's Evaluation -- 2 of 3: Has some interesting elements.
