A well-written, uniquely Australian film. Skillfully handles an ensemble cast, and has many touching moments, while avoiding over-sentimentality.
While the film is a light comedy, there are tragic elements in some of the more disturbed mental patients. You come to care about each of them, but thankfully, the film doesn't try to give any simplistic "answers" to mental illness.
Ben, Toni & Rachel all give good performances. Toni also sings a nice version of a Crowded House song over the end credits.
A small film that deserves a big audience. Worth ten Hollywood blockbusters.
