Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

child_of_the_jago This film proves a theory I have had for quite some time - in Australia, as long as a film deals with the right topic, it will be a success regardless of how terrible it is. Aussie Park Boyz could not possibly be any worse - the acting is beyond terrible, the plot is basically a poor Warriors knock-off, and the filmmakers clearly have no idea about ethnic gangs in Australia (an Irish gang in twenty-first century Sydney! The last time any Irish gangs were in Australia was about a hundred years ago in the time of the tinkers!) But because it's about ethnic rivalry, one of four topics guaranteed to be a success in Australian cinema (along with struggling families, minority groups, and the biography of a famous Australian) it won multiple academy awards. I've always suspected that Australian critics will lap up any rubbish that deals with these issues, but part of me thought, or at least hoped, that they had their limits. This film proves otherwise. So to all you Australian aspiring film-makers out there, don't bother putting thought into your film or choosing people who can actually act, or even getting your facts right - just write a script about some poor family trying to make ends meet, or someone of a foreign race coming to Australia and having to deal with racial prejudice and stereotypes, or, if you want to take a leaf out of these people's book, some ethnic gang fighting some other ethnic gang that isn't actually plausible in the period the film is set, and your film will win five academy awards regardless of how pathetic it is!

spydre_rogue Let's face it, a truly awful movie, no...I mean a "truly" awful movie, is a rare, strange, and beautiful thing to behold. I admite that there is a special place in my heart for films like Plan 9 From Outer Space, Half Caste, Species, etc. And although I'm giving this film a 1, I highly urge anyone who enjoys a bad film for what it truly is (a bad film) to find a friend, snacks, something to drink, and make the special occasion it deserves out of: Aussie Park Boyz. From the very first moments of the lead actor's side to side eye-rolling performance as he attempts to inject intensity directly into the film without ever looking at a camera (a slice of ham straight out of silent pictures--eat your heart out Rudolph Valentino) to the sudden hey-we're-out-of-film conclusion, you...will...not...stop...laughing. To sum the film up, its a poor man's Warriors down under, complete--and that description alone should be enough, but then comes the wonders of "the spaghetti eating scene", "the 'We've got their tickets; they won't be leaving town now' scene", "It's the Asians! Run!!" and more. The only truly objectionable part is a gratuitously filmed rape. Outside of this, I dare you to watch this film. And I dare you to find evidence of acting, or lines, or direction, or any of those other boring and superfluous elements that so-called critics say a film needs to be judged as good. If this movie doesn't cause fits of uncontrollable laughter before it ends, all I can do is roll my eyes menacingly from side to side at you and shout, "You dog! You dog! You dog!"

DeadVampires Writing from a gay point of view. If you are looking for a rough and tough movie this film is not. It has lots of comical fighting and hot men to watch. You never really know if it was made to be gay but it is definitely gay friendly. The box art looks harder than it really is. I see other reviews don't care for this movie but if you like gays,B-Movies,punk and dance music you will love this film. I can see the boys renting this to have the gaggle of gooses come on over for a good laugh. It is the cleanest uncut time I have ever had. Definitely a Australian Oz in the streets. When they do go to prison they get called girls. Just like family. Too Cute.

The3Extremes Aussie park boyz is a beat 'em up film. Made mostly with a hand-held camera, the acting is the worst you've ever seen and the story...well there isn't much story, a gang of illegal boxers think they can go around smacking people's heads in and are proved wrong by other, nastier gangs. The moment the film starts you know it's gonna be pretty shabby but the point is the fact that it is enjoyable. Its a film about fighting so lets focus on the fighting. The fight scenes are surprisingly not that bad, they are unrealistic but they are good and tense.Then there is a scene that is probably most shocking because it is unexpected - the rape scene is incredibly realistic and very grim with the music making it even more unsetling. Thankfully, the part of the rape that involves a sledgehammer is implied.Enjoyable but nothing special. six out of ten
