No one could ever say that the Gangland Wars were dull. But this look behind the lawyer who took down empires in the war has been a bit lax.
A sometimes graphic look behind some of the recent police and justice systems in Australia which will dampen some people's lofty ideals but really does show how intricately corrupt and self serving it all is even these days. Gobbo must have been allowed some literary controls on this script because it paints her a way too glamorously IMHo and not only at the quite attractive and balanced lead when the reality was that she was nowhere near that.
Seems they forgot to spend the time an energy on a script. Strong central performance can't rescue the lack of coherent storytelling on what could have been compelling drama.
Nicola Gobbo wishes she looked like that .....
