I just finished watching Underbelly Files: Chopper and it was pretty good. This story was based on the notorious and colorful Aussie criminal named Chopper Read and takes place after he tries going straight and his history with biker gang leader Syd Collins. I've been waiting for the newest Underbelly story, kinda disappointed this was only a two episode story, the actor portraying Chopper did an excellent job.
For those that haven't heard of Underbelly, it's an Australian true crime drama series with each season based on a different event and characters from Aussie crime history. I've watched all the seasons and most are pretty good, but the very first season was epic. The first season was based on the Melbourne gangland war and stacks up against any other TV crime drama made. The first season was amazing and highly recommend any fan of crime dramas to seek it out, you will not be disappointed. The first season while airing in Australia, was not allowed to air in the Melbourne area for 3 years, until the subsequent trials of many of those portrayed in the series had concluded as to not influence or prejudice any potential juries.
