WHAT'S IT ABOUT? Ex-junkie Cate Blanchett tries to get her life in order. Unfortunately, gay mates, their gangster boss lovers, and one-legged, drug dealing bros drop a super-sized turd in the works.
ANY GOOD? Depressingly good and engagingly tense. Just don't watch it on Friday night and expect your weekend to be a barrel of laughs.
QUOTE FOR THE POSTER: 'The first great slice of Australian entertainment not to star Harold Bishop!'
REASON TO WATCH: To see The Matrix's Agent Smith/LOTR's Elrond (actor Hugo Weaving) transformed into a podgy, dishevelled, beardy, ex-Aussie Rules playin', heroin addict. Neo would be fooled!
FREEBIES: We've got five Little Fish soundtracks and five brilliant Rough Guide To Australia books, to give away! Just email your details to webmaster.maxim@dennis.co.uk and we'll enter you into our giveaway draw. Closing date: 1 August 2006
