Like many "classic" Australian movies it moves at a glacial pace, very little actually happens and the characters are overblown caricatures. It trades on the fact that Australians will watch anything Australian and shower it with praise, simply because it is Australian. Like watching Neighbours in slow-motion and all the actors are drugged on a mixture of sugar and valium. Save yourself from this terrible movie and go to a Wiggles concert. Which will be just as ghastly but at least it will have some life in it.
