Mr Inbetween

What a thoroughly entertaining series this is. The story, the characters and the cast are all fantastic.

I binge-watched this series, which is easy to do. The episodes are only 28 minutes long and there are only six of them.

Casting kids in roles for TV is always a challenge as the lines, the actors and the settings almost always seem forced and unnatural... but Chika Yasumura (as Brittany) is simply awesome in her role. She's cute as a button and a 'natural' on screen.

This is simply gripping and exciting telly.

I don't think I've ever been more surprised by a show than I have been for Mr. Inbetween. I actually don't know anyone who's seen it that doesn't love it. There's a reason this show has a 8.7 rating here and a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes. The lead character (Scott Ryan as Ray) is both a tough guy who you shouldn't ever mess with and also a kind and good man. This show has something for everyone...it is funny, violent, thrilling, mysterious, etc. It's a show that should be binged because once you finish an episode you can't wait until the next one. If you haven't yet seen this underrated show then do yourself a favor and go watch it as soon as possible.

Mr Inbetween brilliantly captures the raw underbelly of Australian society.

The main character Ray is a man of two parts. One is a kind, generous and considerate rough diamond. The other a ruthless monster, who brutalises and kills, with a pragmatic, at times almost jovial, "you had this coming", coldness.

The juxtaposition of conflicting yet at the same time oddly reconciled personality traits, that constitute Ray's complex persona, make for fascinating viewing. Ray slips with relative ease into and out of a world of pedestrian normalcy, into one fuelled by organised crime, violence and sudden death.

It never ceases to amaze me how many quality productions come out of Australia. Mr Inbetween is yet another example. Well acted, intelligently written and ably directed. Great stuff from "down, down under".

8/10 from me.

Reading through most of these reviews I think mostly everyone can agree on one thing...Mr. InBetween is a really really good show! This show came out of nowhere (Australia actually) and has hooked everyone who has given it a chance. It's easily one of the most underrated shows on right now and I can't wait for more!

This is the best series I've watched in 2021 by far. First, acting is superb from the main character and most of the others. Brother's performance is terrific. Second, I love the length of every single episode. Impossible to get bored. Last, the storyline is fantastic from begining till the end.

So, overall better than 99% of Hollywood series. Amazing Aussie production.
