ridiculous rating

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

So, I often run out of TV to watch and I enjoy acting and especially comedy. When I first watched "It's always Sunny in Philadelphia," I thought it sucked, now its my favorite. This show is one of those. You won't like it at first because you really don't get it, but if you give it a chance you will love it. It like always sunny, is a show that will spread through word of mouth, so HBO give it some time. It progressively got better. The chocolate-face aka Smouse was a great idea, not to many people paint themselves black and it's funny, and his remarks are priceless..."My new album" and so on. The chinawoman also great. Gram is however the best character, you almost feel like she is a real granny lol. If you have yet to give this show a chance go 4 episodes deep and you'll start to get into it. It is silly, but shows potential for another good HBO comedy so hopefully they'll get a 2nd season. I reckon it will do well mate!

When I first hear about this show from a friend, I didn't really care much for it, I thought just another comedy show, but I was very wrong, when I watched the first episode on BBC iPlayer I was absolutely blown away,it was a very funny show, but yet very realistic, the comedy is not over the top, the characters are fantastic and very well played, and the last few episodes show that the show can be very emotional, I had never heard of Chris Liley before this show, and as I looked him up on IMDb he seems to be quite famous in Australia, I will have to look up some more of his work overall 10 out 10, a very good show and I hope there are more series to come!

Clever editing, light laughs and a deep level of comedy. Like much of Lilley's work, if you take your eyes off the screen you might miss the joke, which can occasionally come in the background. His abilities in creating characters yet portraying a clear differentiation of them all - it's hard to grasp that they are all the same man. Albeit a bit cringey - I only cringed at 'smouse'. The editing of this show is so smart, allowing him to play multiple roles and it brings a subtlety to the scene. It's clever comedy, this isn't for the canned laughter/slapstick 'insert joke here' junkies. And that's why we love it! I cannot wait to see more of his creations. I hope they give him a second series. Sheer brilliance.

What i love about all of Chris's shows is that they are enhanced by watching the other shows. Summer heights high is better after watching We can be heroes etc. With angry boys you can see Liley, using the trust of the TV station and money to full extent. The series begins with 2 story lines. Gran and Nathan and Daniel (we can be heroes). and it starts of quite small but completely brilliantly, with the same charm of SHH and WCBH. Then after 1 it just gets better and better. They are 6 episodes so far, each more epic than the last.A must see, especially for Lilly's fans i can see this turning into Lilly's masterpiece as we have a 12 episode series.
