Decent enough flick - quite entertaining for a movie of its limited production value and genre. It was interesting to see an Australian / Kiwi version of a "buddy flick". The title and character development led me to believe that it might have been part of a series of movies based upon the main character (or maybe a TV pilot) but sadly, it isn't. It is, however, worth a look if you catch it on cable - but I wouldn't adjust my schedule around seeing it.
