Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
black_stone-rose I love this TV series! The cast is good and the story is interesting. I'm soo happy that its still is very Australian and not so Americanised I hate how Americanised Australia is getting and the old TV programs Australia just doesn't seem to let go. Keep going on its a nice change.
reggiesprake I found the second series very hard to accept, especially anything to do with (Jims') kidney failure. I found it very disappointing how the producers trivialised his so called condition. Any research into dialysis treatment or actual kidney transplants would have shown their incompetent portrayal of both. I feel for everyone who watched the series and has any form of kidney failure especially if they are doing dialysis treatment to stay alive, let alone waiting to hopefully receive a kidney transplant. Another unbelievable portrayal was the recovery period for both. Hugh is shown recovering after his opp/heart attack, then in the same scene he is shown running and jumping into a Mustang. Superman, eat your heart out. Obviously people who have been through the recovery period in real life must feel like wimps. It is great to actually have a locally produced Australian Drama series instead of having so called reality shows being force fed to viewers by every channel. Netflix etc have never looked more inviting. I hope you have success with the show but some thought on how the story lines affect real people with real problems should be considered.
restoredsleepz-18505 I think that this is a decent show, but just wanted to point out that the directors and the writers have definitely found inspiration from the hit medical TV series 'House M.D.'. Since I'm such a big fan of the 'House' series, part of me likes this, but the pessimistic side of me doesn't like this. Since House finished airing; finishing with season 8 in 2012, it's great to see certain symbolism, ideas and story lines being reborn in a different television series which brings that nostalgia which we all crave. However, I'd like to see the writers and directors acknowledge that they have taken ideas from 'House' as they are profiting at the expense of another TV series' storyline -- which is the legal problem, but not publicly acknowledging this fact is a moral problem as well. Additionally, it would be good to see this show thrive from using original ideas and not getting higher ratings for using undeclared, but blatantly obvious plots, characters and symbolism from 'House'. Either way, this show is enjoyable to watch; it's just this one dilemma which bothers me.
tarwoman I just starting watching the show on Acorn TV under the title The Heart Guy. I'm looking forward to each new episode posted. It reminds me of a cross between MASH and Friends on American TV. The cast are hilarious, even in the sadder moments. British and Austrian actors/actresses are so good.
