The script crackles with life and the film is sharply directed, but this is after all just another caper flick with attitude (Tarantino has a lot to answer for!). On the other hand, the cast is so solid that it rises above the fray. Amid their stellar Hollywood careers, Pearce and Griffiths return home to Australia to play against type as an edgy, off-kilter couple--neither is quite sure what they'll do next or if they can trust each other. Meanwhile, the cast is filled out with fine actors like the ubiquitous Edgerton and Colosimo, as well as the lesser-known Richardson and Taylor. The whole ensemble works perfectly together while maintaining wonderfully individualistic characters. The three brothers are especially good--almost three sides to a single person (they're almost never apart!). Meanwhile, first-time director Roberts keeps the mood tense and the tone both angry and funny, with flashes of serious drama to make it more meaningful than most crime movies. The story itself is so tricky and complex that the film feels much longer than it actually is, but it's such a gripping, entertaining ride that we don't mind at all.
