The second movie is a lot better than the first. Everything Australian is no doubt overblown, but there seems to be a weird fetishist resurgence in Australia abroad – even in True Detective there was that Aussie character that seemed unnecessary. I think if you realise it's hyperbolic and for a certain audience, then sure, take it up and accept it. It's not the worst representation, either.
Yeah, generally heaps better but still far from a great movie or high brow comedy or anything. It just reminds me of being in high school and watching this show when the second series started. I never imagined it'd become as huge as it is. I think some people overlook what it's trying to say, or maybe I'm extrapolating something else from it... I don't know... it just reminds me of not an awesome time, but definitely an interesting and necessary time.
Loved the little social criticism in there too with the "bants" and "banter!" shit Jay and Neil went on with.
