Heist Movie Down Under
«The Hard Word» is a gritty, sexy, Australian take on the double-crossing heist movie.
We get to hear Guy Pearce (long-haired and greasy) and Rachel Griffiths (blonde and wet) go native in their accents in an entertainingly original script by first-time director Scott Roberts.
While not the first film to have quirky brothers-in-crime as the comfortable loyalty fulcrum, the familial psychological pathologies make for a nice counterpoint to the friends’, foes’, and femme fatale’s twists and turns. There’s more jokes and ironic humor than even the violence, which helps to block out some quizzical plot turns.
The movie never tells us that the title is Ozzie slang, among other blunt phrases used throughout (such as the tendency of Ozzie blokes to affectionately call each other the «c» word). My Down Under friend Bronwyn translates (used with her permission): «In it’s ‘ultimate’ usage it means to pressure someone for sex. If you were talking to a girlfriend who went out on a date with someone new, you might ask ‘did he put the hard word on?’ However, it is sometimes also used just in a general sense of exerting pressure. In fact, it was in a headline in our local suburban paper («The Leader») yesterday: ‘Minister puts the hard word on district pollies [politicians].’ An article about the State Minister for Local Government pushing the local councils to sort out boundary reforms.»

The Hard Word (released in some regions as The Australian Job) is a 2002 Australian crime film about three bank-robbing brothers who are offered a role in a bold heist while serving time in prison. The film was written and directed by Scott Roberts, and stars Guy Pearce and Rachel Griffiths.
Plot[edit]

Out of prison after serving time for armed robbery, brothers Dale (Guy Pearce), Mal (Damien Richardson) and Shane (Joel Edgerton) are set for a bank heist planned by their underhanded lawyer, Frank (Robert Taylor). But after pocketing his share of the cash, Frank, who’s bedding Dale’s wife (Rachel Griffiths), arranges to have them incarcerated again. Though he understands what his attorney is up to, Dale and his brothers agree to pull off a final robbery if Frank can get them freed once more.

Watch this if ur into Snatch and Lock Stock style movies — this Aussie version is a great movie along those lines — and worth watching — If your aussie you’ll get the jokes no problem.
