An incredibly violent and also incredibly Australian film, and an amazing thrill ride all the way through. A security company suffers a number of attacks including a raid on an armoured car. Is there an inside man? Well in fact there is, Eric Jackson (Terence Donovan) is planning the big one. To roll into the depot with a fake armoured car and steal AU$ twenty million!
Eric has problems though, local hood Jack Henderson (Charles Tingwell) finds out about the planned heist and muscles in. There is also the rather strange new security guard Leo (Tony Bonner) who is almost overtly suspect, and old sweat Dick (Ed Devereaux) who is a crack shot and quick with his fists...
This is a terrific film, a string of brawls and beatings wrapped around a number of intertwining subplots. The film is full of blokey humour, such as the guy who gets locked in a room with a time lock, though he doesn't really worry too much about it as he is sharing the room with a couple of boxes of beer! Oh yes, look out for the toe cutting scene...
