In the laugh-filled tradition of The Full Monty, The Castle is a hilarious comedy treat critics are calling one of the year's funniest movies! Even though there's an airport practically running through their backyard, the eccentric Kerrigan clan loves their humble home. But when the airfield needs room to expand, the government says that the Kerrigans have got to go! With an irresistible charm and irrepressible humour everyone is sure to enjoy, the hilarity then really takes flight when this funny family decides to stay and fight for their beloved "Castle" no matter how far the conflict goes!
RE-Mastering the technical process explained.
The first step in the process was to find the original 16mm interpose which turned out to be in a safety deposit box in Zurich, along with several dozen production stills and the Marcos millions. This interpose was then repaired and given an ultrasonic clean, followed by a thorough dosing with Spray n Wipe which managed to remove all of the damage and part of the final scene. The film was then scanned to 16:9 HD and colour graded. In addition, a special new soundtrack was created for hearing impaired viewers (although this was subsequently removed after it was found to be audible only to small dogs). Finally, all 127 spelling mistakes in the closing credits were corrected or, at least, rendered marginally less offensive.

Synopsis

The Castle is a sweeping saga that takes the harsh Australian outback, the rugged characters of the ANZAC legend, the spirit of Banjo Patterson and ignores them in favour of a greyhound racing, tow truck driver who never meant to be a hero. Since its theatrical release The Castle has become an iconic Australian comedy with phrases such as Hows the serenity, This is going straight to the pool room and Tell him he's dreaming now a part of Australian cultural lingo.
