Above-average TV detective thriller

Melbourne's working class area of Fitzroy (before being gentrified) gets a loving cameo here; Guy Pearce does an excellent job in getting across a damaged man's recovery. But the real pleasure, on repeated viewings, is the supporting players. Nice photography, and the direction of the action sequences is refreshingly lucid.

Great local drama.

Interesting cast, solid story line, shows Australia can do drama.

Pickle jar?

Great Aussie film noir Just finished the second installment, Black Tide.

Well paced, with GuyPierce displaying just the right amount of befuddlement and tenacity. As in the first movie, attention need be played during every scene, as some very important characters and clues often come up only once, and you'll be the befuddled one half way through the show.. Supporting actors do a wonderful job and many return from the first movie. It's not imperative that you watch the first movie before you see Black Tide, but it's great as well and I'd advise it. Things can get confusing enough in film noir as it is.

Most importantly-Looked everywhere on line- what was in the pickle jar- testicles?!

Might have to just read the book!

Better than Stilnox small screen clichéd "Aussie" yawn-fest.

I watched the trailer and was feeling nostalgic for some good ol Aussie drama. Boy did I take a wrong turn.

I have no idea why Pearce would waste his time with this, perhaps its payback or a goodwill investment for his twilight years. He often seemed uncomfortable at the dreadful script lines he had to deliver.

And what is it with Billing being cast so often in Aussie productions? Does he get extra casting sway from his Aussie Content lobbying efforts? I'm bored with him. Give some new actors a run.

I haven't read Peter Temple's novel. I hope it's better than this embarrassment of "Aussie" clichés. Zero action, low drama, low budget tele-movie made to help the ABC meet its local content quota.

The actual cinematography, soundtrack and editing was OK but nothing could save it from the boring script. 2/10.
