Quote:Underbelly: Razor is a 13-part Australian television mini-series detailing real events that occurred in Sydney between 1927 to 1936. The series depicts the 'razor gangs' who controlled the city's underworld during the era and the violent war between the two "vice queen" powers, Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh.
In contrast to the previous Underbelly installments which were based on books by John Silvester and Andrew Rule, Razor is based on the Ned Kelly Award-winning book of the same name, written by Larry Writer. The first episode is titled "The Worst Woman in Sydney"; the war waged between Devine and Leigh culminates in a bloody battle depicted in the episode, "Armageddon". [1]

I have never watched the earlier Underbelly series myself, however I watched about the first hour of the first episode today and it was alright.
Maybe when I was like 18-21 (no offense to those of that age currently). I would have been a massive Underbelly fan (I was of Scorsese films and the Sopranos). However I have changed as I have gotten older.
