    Just got through season 1 over the last week - it is excellent!
    On to season 2 ...........

    I'm probably going to check out the original Australian movie too.

    Watched the movie last night - very disappointing.
    I'd go as far as to say if had watched movie first, probably wouldn't have looked at the series.
    There are some similarities, including some almost identical scenes with the introduction of the characters; but the story itself is very different. The performances of the Series cast are WAY superior to the movie's.
    I watched it through, just to see how it played out - I would suggest however, if you are really enjoying the Series, you might just want to pass on the movie.

    Meanwhile, series 2 is also really good - caught up now and waiting for episode 7 on Tuesday! :D

    HUGE week for finales - GoT last night was awesome ........ and Animal Kingdom tomorrow!
    Can't wait to see how it plays it - hope one certain character gets what's coming and the cast will be one member lighter next year :D

    Season 3 started this week
    Bit of a shocker (as in unexpected, not that was horrible) to be honest
    Be interesting to see how Denis Leary fits in ............

    Need to stay out of here now. I always wait for the full series before watching it.

    doesn't have the dark realistic feeling from the film.the aussies are really good at making dark gritty real crime dramas.the actors that played the brothers in the film were a right shifty crew,mendelshon was class as pope.the series doesn't do it for me.

    I love the show, it's always billed itself as being different from the movie but slowly bringing in some aspects, in the movie we don't really see pope go nuts until baz is killed, they just killed baz in the show, so this is the season where we will probably see pope unleashed

    Ellen Barkin is brilliant in this btw.

    Finished all seasons of this last week.

    Stunning show tbh,if it keeps going like this its gonna be hailed as a classic like Breaking Bad etc


    Acting is fantastic especially from Ellen Barkin (as said earlier),great stories and my fav Denis Leary was in the last season,brought some humour to it as expected.

    Great ending to season 3.
