I work in the area the film is based. I drive past where most of the scenes were filmed daily and also encounter people exactly like those in the film.
If you think the Australianism was put on or too strong, it's only because you don't spend enough time in Surfers Paradise or your from Melbourne or Sydney. The film was even daring enough to have a well known Gold Coast Underworld figure play a "heavy", and the fact is they may even played it down a bit, cause anyone who spends enough time in Surfers has seen him drive around in his Lamoborghini or Ferrari with the plates Shark on there.
The united States has Goodfellas, we have Getting Square
