It's crouching lover, hidden agenda when a couple puts their relationship, and martial-arts skills, to the test in this short about fidelity, forgiveness, and how to turn domestic objects into menacing weapons.

It's a good thing this is a short, and not part of a full-length feature. I never saw "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" in the theater, but if this is anything like what Pitt

Great acting!
Stevo756/29/07
Nice effort,.. well done and i thought the fight scenes were nice and effective,.. much like the situational fight scenes Jackie Chan would use in his early movies.People who bag this for not being funny simply don't get Australian humor.It wasn't laugh out loud funny,.. more cerebral,..
MikeNC6/29/07
Guess they do things differently down under huh?? Well, not exactly my definitiion of foreplay but to each their own lol ...wacked woman reminds me of my ex o_0
callawak6/21/07
That was a great blend of MA and story. I LOVED IT! Though, if they had found a way to cut her out of that dress, it would been cooler! ;-)
Lord_Hoth6/8/07
Great comedy ... would never happen in real life ... cops would arrive too soon at the trailer park. Makes me wish that I had had girlfriends like that ... I would've busted them in the teeth with a broom a couple of times, too -- especially when I found out that they were unfaithful.Now that I think about it, where IS that cleaver?
satishtorani6/7/07

I wish all women could fight like that.
lisamdixon20024/24/07

snappy19994/17/07
That's why they say love is f***ing blind! hahahaha ... I don't like the story ... but I have to say ... it's f***ing true ... women are unreasonable and men are plain dumb! hahahaha

alonzot1/31/07
He should have forgiven her and then leave her, she can't be trusted. He may regret his decision in the future. Great acting by the two of them. Well put together.
Twiggycocomoo1/29/07
That was smashingly wonderful...Thumbs up because it's not like Mr. and Mrs. Smith scene...it's beleivable. And oddly enough, it reminds me of my boyfriend and I...just without the dishes and knives.....it's love!! Anyway, I absolutely love this one...coveted!
MrKJHoward1/11/07
I give this a thumbs up because the ending was a surprise to me. I didn't see it coming at all. Great screen play as well
Astarannis12/7/06
Sick action, though pointless, given my history of domestic squables, I could see people losing control to the extent the film showed. I love, LOVE how the conversation went full-circle and settled on what it started with (why he'd been secretive all week) and the way the topics shifted was excellent!
kffaner12/3/06
PRISON WARZ is much better here i didnt even see any skills in Martial Arts...

Nice to see an Aussie flick here. One of the better Directed and Edited films I've seen on the site. The script could've been sharper - seems to be hidden under the excuse for a fight sequence.

I loved itÂ…
dfowensby7/23/06
what a loser. he shoulda beaten her unconcious.

if you liked this movie, watch up the ladder.
im misha6/19/06
yeah...director is definately a girl that hates men.
Gary5/29/06
It doesn't live up to it's premise, and the punch line is kind of flat. Some fun moments, though! :-)
Anonymous5/24/06
Ha! That was wonderful.
Flynn5/7/06
why?
CJ4/29/06
That was going good till the whole proposal thing.
Phidippus4/28/06
Love as war. Delicious.
Jodie4/26/06
It's all so true, some things you want to do in a fight but never would. Nice to see it more realistic rather than the "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" senario. I really liked the movie.
Anonymous4/25/06
I don't know about funny,, not a bad film at all, but the reality is that this is more of a realistic portrayal of domestic violence, with the hollywood coreographed moves,, I liked it, I wouldnt consider it funny though.
Anonymous4/25/06
i like this movie
steelersforever4/25/06
when in doubt women always go for the frying pan. Any other women get themselves in this predicament. Next time she should have use cast iron and the video would have been shorter.
Ben K.4/19/06
Can't imagine how interesting their love life would be if they put all that energy into sex. Bravo!
Joe4/18/06
very good
kac4/17/06
The film is fun and entertaining. A great way to incorporate action, a fresh concept. I look forward to watching again...
colin4/17/06
not bad
Anonymous4/16/06
the fight scenes were great, but they belong in another movie. after i got over the action and watched the flick for a second time i realized that all the fight scene did was distract from the lousey plot. i am a big fan of dark comedy but this wasn't funny, cool but not funny.
movie414/15/06
Action was well directed. Topic was uncomfortable, violence in relationships is really no laughing matter. But, I guess the film makers were trying to take a lighter look at the topic, if that is even possible.
babybanks4/15/06
Fantastic, laughed right through.
Johnny's 4/13/06
To drawn out. Good story line. Bad acting.
Ultrapower50004/13/06
This film was so lame, love should have NOTHING to do with it.
Mah4/12/06
Funny.Laugh Out Loud.
Ken4/12/06
It was just too realistic to be funny. It was uncomfortable to watch. I doubt domestic violence can be made into a laughing matter. The "payoff" didn't make it worthy of my time.
Homey da Clown4/12/06
Clearly directed by a woman...probably a feminist who thinks men are pigs. Over the top performances with the female character getting the upper hand: in a word, ridiculous.
eliott4/11/06
Great story line and acting.
Loretta4/11/06
Funny take on making the moment right.
