Certainly not a contender for film of the year, this dim-witted supposed comedy features a cast of well known Australian faces making fools of themselves. The plot sees Marcus Graham as  horse trainer Max McKendrick facing a lifetime ban for getting involved in fixing a race. When he finds himself and his new wife being ostracised by their wealthy circle of friends he hatches a plan to make himself a fortune as well as regain his place within the racing fraternity.  This of course doesn’t go to plan and before you know it there are bodies piling up all over the place.  

Director Stavros Kazantzidis (who also wrote the script) obviously believes the more there is going on the better and although the plot follows the convention of farce it is just too nasty to be funny,is this what the film-makers believe best represents an image of Australia to the world with extortion, blackmail, murder, drug-taking, adultery, bad sex scenes, swearing, stealing, kidnapping and wanton greed at the expense of all morals. 

With a cast that includes Abbie Cornish as Becky, Jason Donovan as sex mad accountant Henry and even Jason’s dad Terence Donovan you would have expected more but it’s left to Bill Hunter as foul mouthed trainer Barry Coxhead to salvage any merit from the movie.
