I realize this is an adaptation but there's some big problems. Firstly why does the cop automatically presume that the crazy meth killer is somehow attached to the drug dealer? There's loads of places to get meth, there's loads of dealers in Melbourne. Guy could have got it from anywhere. Even if it came from the Hugo Weaving character and his son all they have to do is deny it. Second problem: How is the Hugo Weaving character - apparently a small-time dealer living in a housing estate - have cops that work for him? Especially a detective? I've never heard of any crime figure that powerful choosing to live in a housing estate. Anyway I didn't get much beyond that. As soon as the two lovers went on a tour of "Melbourne Cliches" I found it a bit cringey and went to sleep. I may give it another go. I do like to support the local projects.

Snoozefest trying to be Two Hands. Boring story and zero F's given about any of the characters. Hugo Weaving is one of the most over rated actors of all time and he's the best in this tripe. Avoid at all costs.

I enjoyed this film. There is Shakespeare in it. I would I preferred an end with a happy duke.

Despite the bad comments here, the movie has a clean and clear flow. All roles were played well. My favorite part of the movie; there is no exaggeration in any scene. It definitely deserves a chance to watch.

I really enjoyed this film. Had no idea what to expect going in, so was pleasantly surprised by the really good acting (Hugo Weaving is always a joy to watch!) . and the female lead in particular is amazingly good!! If you like really thoughtful, interesting films, then I can highly recommend this one.

I love a good Aussie flick and this is one of them. Not a all time top ten but this will be remembered for some great acting from the two stalwarts HW & JB alongside some newer actors whom will no doubt be better know down the track. Great effort by all involved in production and special Kudos to director Paul Ireland, well done. Whilst there are a few boring and drawn out moments M4M is overall good entertainment and that's what I like in a movie. 8.5 for me.

Excellent movie, some violence but fits the story line in a modern day love story

Has so many layers & diverse and the Aussie cast portray their characters brilliantly, yes the few violent scenes are indeed extreme for a few short moments , step away from analysing it to align as an adaptation and enjoy it has a film and it digs deep and those that do that will be locked in from start to finish

Sorry but Islam is not Romeo and Juliet, all the boy would have to do is become Muslim and there would be no problems. If he really loved her he would, so what absolute secularist propaganda garbage.
