I’m usually not a fan of reaction videos but you do them in a way that’s sincere and nice to watch. As an Australian it’s good to see you cover Aussie cinema too!

Its just so well written with so many little points that will always bring you back to watching it again because you missed stuff the first time. So well written.

@@chrissiereacts That is Choppers Dad

When Rey is doing his interview, saying he never had regrets about any of his victims, he's not being honest, since we saw how unhappy he was in season 1 when Freddy gave him the wrong target. I think Rey is just good at compartmentalising, based on what he has experienced in his past, both from his upbringing and the military. As for the dog, I'm sure he felt that as well, but he has a tendency to lie to himself to justify what he does, and to remain professional.

Yep that's Kenny Graham playing Ray's father who was also Choppers dad. He lives near me and I used to see him a lot and chat to him down my supermarket where we both shopped. Lovely humble guy . Haven't seen him for about 3 or so years hope he's doing ok.

The amount of pain and suffering someone like Ray tolerates is extreme. But that's the job, it's a hyperbolic example of how far someone can go, and still maintain some level of normality outside the chaos of their personal lives. Such brilliant writing and such a great show. As sad and as tough it can be to watch.

Oh man the last scene, I've lost Army mates, that is just as devastating as losing a close family member

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet, but this show is based on a movie from 2005 called The Magician. Might be worth watching that as well. Its the same character, but the premise is that a student film maker is following him making a documentary about his crimes. Its really good.

@Some1inFNQ

Ай бұрын

It's excellent. While it's the same character, it's not the same story. The movie is set in Melbourne and it ends in a way that makes this series being a continuation of ray's story anywhere in Australia in the same theatrical universe pretty unlikely. The same central theme is there though, a deep and unconventional examination of the morality of violence. In the series you actually here someone call Ray "The Magician" I think twice, from memory.

You have to think that biker gang leader is no real good guy. Only in the sense that Ray is. All do bad things for money. Likely have folks killed or kill them. You don't hire a killer to take out the head of a biker gang that just takes joy rides.

Biker Gangs are pretty notorious down in Australia, and the fact that the Biker Boss is friends with Ray, well, that says it all lol! There is actually a Australian mini-series called "Bikie Wars: Brothers in Arms" which dramatizes a famous incident involving two Aussie Biker Gangs, worth a watch and it has some familiar faces in it.

I love that you review this. Hardly anyone does. One of the best Aussie TV shows of late. I'm hanging on every week for the new episodes. Great job I can't wait for you to watch them all ❤

Fun fact:The main actor in Mr inbetween (Scott Ryan) is also the creator and writer of the show. Dudes seriously talented.

4:55 in an interview, I heard Scott Ryan say it's basically Curb Your Enthusiasm except Larry's a hitman

You're going to need a big box of tissues for the next few episodes Chrissie

I put a huge thumbs up at the screen when you realised that was Chop Chop's dad, I love watching you watch our media! Keep up the good work!!!

The fella that plays Dirk, Ben Oxenbould, is in this aussie film called "Caught Inside" (2010) which is really indie and hard to find but he's amazing, its one of the most underrated aussie films. It probably isnt something you'd review but it's definitely worth a watch.

"Jack was a pos." That line cracks me up.

Such a good show. I was bummed when it ended.

He whacked the Pres just down the road from where I grew up. La Perouse overlooking the port and airport. Nice spot....

I spent an evening fishing the Groynes at Kernell and was surprised how much noise from the city, airport and cargo terminal carried across the Bay towards me. In a busy industrial Port, a gunshot would just be another sound.

It is his dad in chopper. the actors name is Kenny Graham

I totally overlooked how the failed assassination attempt and the Jack and the bean stalk story tied in. Ray, in this episode, was the villain, straight up. Killing the Pres's dog was a shit move, and he'll get a taste of his own medicine later on, sadly 😢

I'll be honest, Chrissie...it tears me up when I see you cry, but when I see Ray doing all those murderers in, I don't bat an eyelid.

Live by the sword, die by the sword. Even if that's a spiritual death, or a mental death, it's essentially the same thing.

There's a big difference between killing a puppy just for the sake of it and killing a dog that is going to take you down and his owner then putting a bullet between your eyes. I think you are wrong on that one.

I really appreciate your emotional reactions to this series. I've seen them all and have become somewhat hardened to viewing series and movies like this. Keep up the great work. Love it, big fan in NZ

Episode 9 is my favourite episode from season 2 cant wait to see your reaction to it!

Killing is killing, except when it's not... "I'll see you in your dreams"

I had to look that up, apparently the female octupus stops eating after giving birth, to protect the eggs.

The spot for The Pres hit is just around the bay from Sydney Airport. So you have the aircraft noise obscuring the sound of the shot and the lights of the industrial complex obscuring the muzzle flash. They were just lucky there weren't any other cars parked there but it's probably late at night between 11:30 and 00.00, before airport curfew.

I just love the writing and acting and casting and simply everything about this show. Even though it is about a hitman/enforcer, the taking of a life is far more significant than a Hollywood movie with an accompanying one-liner. See you soon on the next ones!

When you say don't kill the dog as a writing technique, that's american screenwriting rules. Aussies love dogs too but it isn't an end-all like it is for Americans, they have a far more utlilitarian view on animals as its a dangerous country for wildlife. That scene is a great one - 2 punch reminding you, that Ray is not a great guy, as nice as you may find him to his daughter, his family and his friends.

If really is both a blessing and a curse how we humans can feel such deep empathy for objectively terrible people. Much easier when they're fictional, but it definitely happens in real life too in my opinion. Just more complex.

Tough episodes Chrissie, I think the interview scenes with the author really didn't work and was a bit of a miss. Im enjoying re-discovering this series. Such a great show!

Also this show isn't about a hero, it's about Ray Shoesmith.

This was a gr8 series. Top comedy film thats gone under the radar 'someone marry Barry' 👍👍

Did you recognise the driver Craig who got shot in the bank robbery in Two Hands , he was the Bikie President Ray shot in this episode👍

That dog really did tie the room together, did it not ?

Emotional rollercoaster today!

Hi Chrissie, thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed that. It is not for the faint of heart. I believe you would very much enjoy "Irreverent" 🇭🇲

best series I've ever seen should've won best actor for a Logi award, your Emmy's Scott is an awesome guy, think I've watched the entire series 3 times, , they made this with such a low budget yet it was done brilliantly, I cried I laughed I was stunned in a lot of these series , best 1 I dont answer questions, that last 1 you saw with his mate affects you so much as does the 1 when he gets the pedo for the dead girls farther

"He tried to fucking kill me!" Yeah i'm sorry I had to kill them all!

Holy Cow Chrissie..you're as Canadian as the day is long..

Def Choppers dad. Aussie actor and comedian named Kenny Graham.

how good is that line, see you in your dreams.. Typical bikies tho, even once the job is complete, its not over. Funny how it all plays out. Season 3 takes you on another journey, nothing is really dragged out, where the series seems slow its really just detailing key details for later or to show Ray's character. I wish there was a season 4..
