Comments: Because the cast is not well known internationally,
the bios are much more interesting than usual and give you
a good look at the history of the actors. The 22-minute making-of
doco is terrific, with excellent interviews with Temuera Morrison,
Rena Owen, the make-up and artistic staff and director Ian
Mune. It's good to hear Morrison talking in his not Jake-the-Muss
character and about how he had to go from being a clean-cut
doctor on a soapie to building up with weights and learning
to fight. The look at the makeup department and how they designed
tatts for the gang members is also a key part. You also pick
up little bits of mind-blowing info such as how one of the
characters took seven hours to pen their tattoos on. Very
good stuff indeed.
