Idiot Box

Reflected in a window of the bank building opposite when Kev and Mick are rehearsing their robbery on their bicycles.

I like the bit where they planned to rob a bank.

A realistic and stark view of life in the western suburbs of Sydney seen through the eyes of two testosterone filled young men Kev and Mick and the people they come across. From their boredom and lack of direction in life they plan an audacious bank robbery to solve their financial situation.

Idiot Box is uninteresting and unfunny.Realistic unlikable people doing unrealistic things.

Well this movie retains the essence it's title, it's totally idiotic. Never mind the light reference to someone in special in the Indian TV world.

The first comment I must make about this film is that the characters are so Australian. This is not surprising considering that it is an Australian Film, but the thing is is that the characters are genuine.

I thought this movie was really cool when it came out dark, funny,real. filled with jerks and sensitive people good bad and ugly.

A rip-snortingly good seriocomic Australian crime caper romp about Kev and Mick, who are a couple of slothful, shiftless, luckless, jobless, penniless, hopelessly dumb and perpetually beer-blasted couch potato twentysomething slacker meatheads who are constantly hard up for booze money. The dim-witted duo decide to reverse their misfortune by robbing a bank.

Very well done polished and original short. The whole thing of people walking around with TV heads is pretty cool.

Idiot Box is a deliberately paced,philosophical and realistic comedy/drama from Australia.Like many Australian films this is an artistic and original piece of film making with something important to say.
