Went to see it on Monday night, really good doco I thought, all be it a little one sided with their story, but worth going all the way to Marion to watch it. Worthwhile seeing it in the cinema, some of the surf footage is awesome, big and small wave. :shock:

I've been meaning to check it out! (I live a drop punt away from Marion)
...Biased In support of the Maroubra surfers or what?
I wonder what Rex Hunt & his son think of territorial 'Surf Nazis' being glorified like this!
ie. Byron Bay
GO THE GROWL!!!

Not on the surfers or the gang themselves, but we get their side of the story when it comes to the murder charge and the accessory to murder charge that 2 of the brothers faced. In saying that, it's probably close to the truth anyway and doesn't detract from the movie at all, won't give anything away for those who want to see it, but again, I would reccomend it, thinking about going again while it's still in the cinema's. :D

It was ok- depends on what floats your boat.
Blue Murder was far superior imo (although presented in a slightly different context to Bra Boys).

Tony Hines definitely had a 'reputation.'

The young Bra Boys idolise the Abberton's.

Dunno about the older blokes though...
