Thanks to Chinester's rec I started watching Mr. Inbetween and am about 6 eps into the first season. It's very good, but it's just not in the same league as Breaking Bad or The Sopranos. It's definitely good though, and I'm going to keep watching, so thanks for that one!
Mr.Inbetween is a great series, but not "better" than Breaking Bad or the Sopranos, as stated by @Chinster It's a really good Australian show. It's a bit slow, but it's really good and realistic. But to say it is better than Breaking Bad or The Sopranos is exaggerating.
Dark city is also in the same category with this and Mr Inbetweener
@Chinester, that is a big statement you've made there :-). I wouldn't say all of that, but it is definitely up there
I've been looking for this film for years now, having seen it at release. I forgot the name, so couldn't find it. Thanks YTS. A tragically overlooked gem in the genre of Australian Crime.
Is brad pitt in this?
@Chinster - never heard of that show, but thanks for the rec. Those are pretty high standards, but I'm going to check it out.
