‘Underbelly: A Tale Of Two Cities’ Promises To Be Awesome

If you believe yesterday’s review in The Daily Telegraph written by Erin McWhirter (and why wouldn’t you? What do you know about her that I don’t? Send your answers on a postcard to the usual address…), the Underbelly prequel is going to be gold star television entertainment.


Believe the hype because Underbelly: A Tale Of Two Cities hasn’t just lived up to anticipation – it’s better than the original. It has pole-vaulted past it on a gritty, money-hungry and sex-charged ride into the underworld.

The gut-wrenching prequel to last year’s hit is set to be Nine’s highest-rating program of the year, if not the No. 1 rating drama of 2009.

Yes! Something decent to watch on television! Little to no chance of a judge banning it!

Apparently Matthew Newton is a natural when it comes to his role as Terry ‘Mr Asia’ Clarke.


But be warned: The violence is brutal, especially that displayed by Clark, who boasts a cool-as-a-cucumber exterior but has a raging devil inside.

(bites tongue)

This is the second fantastic review of the show, the first being Fred Niles two thumbs down, which bodes well for Underbelly: A Tale Of Two Cities being a thrilling and entertaining ride… to hell!

    we actually saw this being filmed out the front of our house, much to our amusement, they asked us not to get in the shot (i would have thought it being my house would entitle me to be where ever i wanted…)
