I think what bothered me is that they seemingly hired every Australian actor they could, but the role of the son went to an American actor who - while funny - will seemingly be a dolt in the movie. I initially thought Chris Hemsworth (Thor) was going to play the role of the son while McBride would be the goofy sidekick friend. That premise seemed more interesting to me, but maybe the movie will be better than I thought the trailers have shown. (I do like Margot Robbie being in it.
It has been so long since I've seen the original movie(s), maybe having McBride as the son makes sense and matches those films. I don't remember much of how they played out.
