Nicola Gobbo wishes she looked like that .....

The Melbourne Gangland war was the bloodiest in any gangland war in Australia, so the cast of course are following what happened during those years. Gyton Grantley, Robert Mammone returning to the roles that made them famous with a stellar cast (new to the Underbelly universe or returning) providing excellent storyline telling, even with the events ripped from the headlines, the cast and crew put their lives at risk to make sure the story was told..

Seems they forgot to spend the time an energy on a script. Strong central performance can't rescue the lack of coherent storytelling on what could have been compelling drama. Breaking the fourth wall, heavy reliance on a soundtrack and epileptic editing is deflection from a very thin and disappointing piece.

I absolutely love the underbelly series but unfortunately this one was just not what we are used to

The next time someone asks you to describe an underbelly failure, give them this and vanishing act. Absolute trash. It was one of the weakest in the underbelly universe and that is saying something as the other one with Melissa Caddick was just a laugh. The two actors playing the Hodsons both sound like the accents they were going for got lost and were confused, and normally i love Rhys Muldoon but here? Nah, and Jacquie? Jacquie of all people should've just passed on this, was the director trying to traumatise the poor woman? Ella Scott Lynch deserved a much better script a less bland real life person.
