Many Australian cultural males like I would probably enjoy this film I recommend every male take his girlfriend to this
Although movie is classified as a Romantic Comedy there certainly wasn't any Hugh Grant style head over heals Romance between Alice and Jim shown, in contrast we see the suburban after honeymoon phase a static couple living together. Jim his biggest challenge in life is showing loving affection to Alice, Alice now 3 years older longs for more from a partner and decides to move on, we follow Jim and Alice in their separate ways and the emotions they feel along the way.
The movie is more about the mateship between the male leads Jim & Charlie and long term mateship between Jim & Blake. What we are shown the 'first date' between Jim & Alice and their static routine 3 years later, what romance bonded them is never directly shown in the movie, however a spiritual trusting connection is evident.
This film shows how important good mates are in a mans relationship life, A mans motive for lack of commitment or expression of emotion is not always represent his true feelings. Past events, traumatic experiences or lack of experience can limit a males ability to move a relationship forward (culturally males generally don't share this or ask for help) and Blake, even the Guy who appears to holding you back, can actually be your most loyal and generous friend.

I saw this film on a flight from Darwin to Canberra so I'm assuming it was modified for the flight (I am pretty sure there was a lot of swearing removed). I was going to pull the plug after a few minutes of Peter Hellier. Normally I think he's funny, but not as a movie actor. It turned into a great and funny Aussie comedy once Charlie was introduced. I just wonder if they should have had Megan Gale's name in the opening credits. It would have added a little more mystery to leave it to the end. Otherwise I would go out and watch it again when it comes out on DVD so I can see the bits which were cut. At the beginning the main male character had me thinking he was a jerk, but after the reason for his reticence was explained it all made sense.
I was pleasantly surprised by this Aussie comedy when I saw it on a plane flying home to Sydney. There is a continuous tingle of surprises coming up in every scene & all the actors deliver that special warmth that comes from good movie direction and consistent acting. There is a wonderful sense of reality in the plot that shows a man who is finally able to understand how to grow up and face the fact that if he leaves his family home & his dinky-die mates he will be OK.
Sure, he may need to work hard to keep the new found girlfriend's touchy-feely relationship & hit upon true love with his special girl but in the end he finds it is worth the hard yards. The part played by small person Peter Dinklage (from "Death at a Funeral"-UK & USA versions) is particularly delightful & adds a certain touch of sparkle to the whole movie. Try & see it if you can.

This is a tragic comedy of a contemporary Australian suburbia, in which bonking a pub-met-stranger is a unisex very normal life-style advertised.
There is something sweet in this movie depicting in general a local environment expertly also, in spite the common perception of sexual activities locally, the most of unknown males-in-twenties in streets met randomly revelled their virgin status predominantly-long distances and public transport jumps contribute to down-the-earth socialising between persons unfamiliar.
It is nice to realise, that my research is perfectly testified by movie makers emphasizing on the lacking of human warm and communication as the very issue for "egalitarian" Australians.
You will never ever know if you never ever go.
Watch and enjoy a fairytale of lost in time and space people adult legally.

I think Australian movies are fantastic. I loved this movie. It was Aussie and funny and my opinion is that anything Brendan Cowell is in is going to be good. People seem so used to these polished over American movies that we're fed that they forget we have a fantastic, under-appreciated film industry right here in Australia. And then they complain and say Aussie movies aren't funny because they're waiting for the canned laughter to show them when it's funny. Personally, I couldn't stop laughing! I loved the humour, I loved the random cameos (Angus Sampson was hilarious, as always), and Brendan Cowell was so ditzy and open that you couldn't help but laugh. Loved it!
