I realize this is an adaptation but there's some big problems. Firstly why does the cop automatically presume that the crazy meth killer is somehow attached to the drug dealer? There's loads of places to get meth, there's loads of dealers in Melbourne. Guy could have got it from anywhere. Even if it came from the Hugo Weaving character and his son all they have to do is deny it.
Second problem: How is the Hugo Weaving character - apparently a small-time dealer living in a housing estate - have cops that work for him? Especially a detective? I've never heard of any crime figure that powerful choosing to live in a housing estate.
Anyway I didn't get much beyond that. As soon as the two lovers went on a tour of "Melbourne Cliches" I found it a bit cringey and went to sleep. I may give it another go. I do like to support the local projects.
