Catching Milat

A fascinating and horrific tale that's underwritten and vague. While some actual quotes make their way in to the script, too much of what happened is glossed over. For a 3 hour+ miniseries, so much more could've been included. Most of the cast aquits itself quite well. Kennard is very good as the title character and Field is near-flawless as always. However, top-billed (?!) Cawthorne is difficult to watch; his expression never changes, even when he's shouting or upset and should show some sort of emotion. Watch Crime Investigation Australia (2005) and/or Wolf Creek (2005) instead.
