Reception
Sarah Daniell in the Evening Post wrote, "It may may been burdened by a cliched premise, good cop-bad cop stereotypes and inferior programming and promotion but it rose above the odds to provide a truly rocking couple of hours of entertainment." She finishes her review "Lawless may not be flawless, but the whole shebang was executed with wit and style, that hell, a girl could get used to this."[4] Bruce Elder in The Sydney Morning Herald described the film as "well-written and hugely entertaining," adding, "There is something wonderfully ragged and realistic about this series and the plot lines are strong enough to ensure that they are much better than most of the predictable cop shows on TV."[5]
