I was hesitant to watch initially as I thought it would be more of the same same.

However it was actually refreshing to see some new quality Australian content. Full of twists, great character development and packs a great punch in 4 small episodes. As typical with Aussie series there is 5-10 micro moments that are super cheesy and woeful cgi, but the great story and acting more than makes up for these minor blemishes.

Definitely worth the 2-3 hours to watch and even if you are not a fan of Luke Arnold (Black Sails, INXS) there is still plenty of great smaller characters that blend together in this tale.

If this was a spoof of con air it would be brilliant.

Problem is I actually think the lead actor and director were trying. If so they deserve 10-15 I. Levingsworth for crimes against cinema.

I nearly wrote this off as a cliche redemption story. It is for the first half of the movie, then grows into so much more. Ben Affleck went from a competent actor to a compelling one. Phenomenal performance.

Struggling to understand the sub 6 scores.

This isn't meant to be a popcorn die hard style action flick. Instead it shows the dark and seedy sides in the cartel and Gov't conflict in both sides of the border.

Really hope there is a 3rd instalment made

A great insight into the minds of aspiring young athletes as they try to pursue their dreams.

Stick with the series, gets better as you start to identify with the three young quarter backs and their family and support networks.

The quintessential chalk and cheese. Seasons 1-5 are captivating, season 6 compares to watching paint dry.

I nearly didn't watch this on Netflix due to all the savage reviews of 1 and 2. Whilst it didn't set the world alight early in episode 1 it quickly developed and got me hooked. There is clearly a negative agenda and propaganda play with 500 crap reviews. Whilst not 100% historically accurate it's still a great watch, so please don't be put off by the fake reviews posted here and give 3-4 episodes a try for yourself.
