    Wild goofy action from the outset
    Watched this film for the first time the other night, and it's an absolute wild ride. The film starts with a fight on Ayers rock which definitely sets the tone for the rest of the film. The film is well paced with a variety action scenes with pretty good stunt work throughout. I couldn't help but laugh through the duration of the film with the extremely fun action scenes that often ended up in a large explosion. The acting is over the top, at first I thought it was because the actors were putting on the Aussie accent but most of the main actors were Australian, so I think it is just another layer to the self-aware humour of the film. The best part of the film is definitely the soundtrack. The intro song is an absolute tune, so good in fact that they played it again in the credit sequence. Overall definitely a fun film to watch and currently free on amazon prime πŸ™Œ
