Expected more

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Cannot watch anymore whilever Steve is on the panel. Candidates do not deserve to be berated.

Shark Tank Australia gives hopeful entrepreneurs a chance to pitch their business ideas to five potential investors with the hope of securing an investment. Although the show does well in acknowledging and exposing local businesses around the country, investments are limited and far too predictable on the occasions where the 'sharks' decide to invest. Unlike foreign versions of the show, the investors are too individually focused and concerned with their own offers rather than what fellow 'sharks' might offer. Although the 'sharks' are willing to share an investment, there is a lack of concern when fellow investors make good offers on a potentially great business. On other versions, there is greater competition between the investors making better television and entertainment for the viewers. Furthermore, there is a tendency for the 'sharks' to not take risks on business ideas resulting in monotonous television where there are two to three offers for a whole show, every week. Entrepreneurs are expected to pitch already established businesses whereby the 'sharks' will receive a return on their investment almost immediately. Despite the business exposure and generally good ratings, Shark Tank Australia doesn't live up to its foreign counterparts.

Perfect recreation of the American one and the American one is good :). Sharks were very well selected and reflect the good business attributes of Australia. People criticized the bluntness and honesty of the sharks however these attributes of the show are what makes it good. The show offers entertainment for the audience. PR for the Sharks and millions of dollars worth of free advertising so its a win for everyone. Ratings performed well despite the enormous competition of the Sydney siege and MKR on the Sunday which shows it is a strong show. Its ratings increased throughout the night shows that people joined in. 10/10 will watch every week. This last line is just so i can submit the review as i need 10 lines.
