Synopsis

They're absent-minded, mildly corrupt and barely competent. Somehow, they're Australia's most elite detective unit.

Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Wordiezett So much average
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
ollemoy Put this show on to have in the background while playing some games, after 2 minutes i stopped all the other things I was doing and was laughing out loud watching this show. It has stupid, crude and insensitive humor, which is much needed in today's overly sensitive society. The story is nothing special, but it doesn't need to be interesting when their comedy and characters draw you in.Was laughing out loud through the whole episode and cannot wait to watch the rest of the season! I highly recommend this show to anyone who find inappropriate and crude comedy hilarious!
jackhartford This show isn't even close to ripping off Archer. The only reason it's similar is it's animations and it's characters being in an agency. This show is great, I laugh a lot more than I do when I watch Archer, it's also awesome to see a show with the setting in Australia. The people who say this is a rip-off are just mad about the animations and the characters being similar to Archer. Give it a few episodes, though I got hooked after one. This series has a large amount of potential. In some ways it isn't an entirely new idea, but in some ways it is. The comedy of this show is much different than that of Archer's. I look forward to seeing this show grow, and hopefully people will become less butt hurt when they realize that this isn't supposed to be:'Archer: Australia Edition'.
sydneyswesternsuburbs Creators and actors, Santo Cilauro, Tom Gleisner & Rob Sitch who have also created other classic TV series, Funky Squad 1995, Breaking News better known as Frontline 1994-1995 & 1997, The Hollowmen 2008 and Utopia 2014,2015 & 2017 as well as the classic comedy dubbing, The Olden Days/Bargearse 1993 have created another gem in Pacific Heat.I enjoy the one liners and seeing Australian made animation.These guys have made Australias best television comedies and never overstay their welcome before moving on to their next creation. Keep up the great work.If you enjoyed this as much as I did then check out other classic TV series, Ash vs Evil Dead 2015-2016 & 2018, Into the Badlands 2015 & 2017-2018, True Detective 2014-2015 & 2018-2019, Westworld 2016 & 2018, Romper Stomper 2018, and Doctor Foster 2015 & 2017.
amputeetango I've seen Archer several times (the whole series) and love it so very dearly. Pacific Heat has elements that are similar but it's its own thing and expecting it to live up to that which it may have copied for money is foolish.It's a bit slapsticky, it's vaguely racist but Pacific Heat isn't a bad show. The voice acting is quite good; the flow of the show feels very Australian. I had trouble understanding the accent (Even though i'm living in Mexico atm, i'm a native-English speaker from da USA; aka as the World Police HQ) years ago watching Rake (one of the best shows i've ever seen) but you get used to it after you've seen enough Australian programming.Anyway, about this show; I get how some people can watch an episode of something and dislike it. I read "dont watch this show" on someone's stupid blog then read the reviews here that were all angsty; if you haven't seen much from a certain country it's easy to jump the gun and dislike it. It's easy to hate what one doesn't understand; but its sad. I really like this show. I'm only a couple of episodes in but it's funny and it uses the individual ignorance of characters to make jokes. Some of the jokes are sorta stupid; in Archer stuff is relateable and it lands. You have to google half the things because the pop cult references are all over the place :D but personally I've learned a lot from archer about random subjects i would have never heard of otherwise. This show is much simpler but still has merit.I doubt i'll re-binge watch it while drugged out the way I have done Archer but it's definitely a good experience :D I hope they make more seasons. Archer was so tight from the very beginning, but I feel like if this show gets renewed the production value would go up and it'd find it's stride.Australian shows I'd recommend; WATCH RAKE (it's one of the best shows I've ever seen and I watch a lot of series and films), housos (an Australian trailer park boys sorta), Swift and Shift (by the same ppl who did Housos), umm.. there's another show by the housos people that isn't super great about Pizza but meh..Everyone should watch Feed. It's a film :D it's really twisted and beautiful. There is so much amazing Australian cinema; i can't remember half of it i've seen but they have a really unique take on comedy and they are OUT THERE quite often. Oh, UTOPIA :D is really good. It's about the ineffectual aspects of government (applies everywhere). Also "little deaths" or "La petite Morte" something like that; about fetishes people have and :D everyone is really happy and the atmosphere is weird; and really weird crap happens. Anyway; I wish everyone could enjoy more things. Our preconceptions tend to ruin a lot for us but with an open mind the world is so much more beautiful. This was a long rant rather than a review; i hope nobody reads it ever. Have a good night
