Hugely enjoyable comedy adventure!

Highly recommend this really funny and very warm movie from New Zealand. Early Taika Waititi work and it's everything he's best at-taking on a hard topic with humor and heart, showing up in a hilarious and memorable cameo, and having a…

It was highly recommended to me and usually I don't care for this type of topic. As skeptic as I was, I pleasantly surprised to find this movie very entertaining and the acting, I thought, was spot on.

Taika Waititi's films are so dependably wonderful! Is there anything this guy cannot do? He can act. He can write. He can direct. He always makes me truly care about all of his characters. AND he can make me laugh!! Who could ask for…

Best non-syrupy feel good movie that you will find. Majestical.

CUTE! Usual coming-of-age movie with a finding-your-true-family theme. Beautiful scenery, VERT funny script, and great acting. If you are a fan of anything Taika Waititi, you’re in the right place. “Anything you want to do in life…

Great movie. Another good performance by Sam Neill and the Maori boy Julian Dennison was brilliant.

Great Indie film, Sam Neill had the Kiwi accent down, and the Māori kid was phenomenal.

Funny, heartwarming, and overall amazing! I always love a good found-family story. Taika Waititi continues to deliver unique stories with loveable characters. Seriously, this movie is indescribably wonderful.

Quirky, funny and at times profound.

Wonderful! A few days earlier I watched the 1971 film "McCabe and Mrs Miller", and was surprised when during the snow scene in this film, a Leonard Cohen song is playing. And the same thing happens in the 1971 film. Huge snow scene, with…

A very fun movie with quite a few laugh out loud moments. Sam Neil puts on the "grumpy guy who hates kids" suit again but with more surprises than in previous roles. The kid at the center of the movie nagged at me until my wife…

The theme of a young boy in difficult circumstances runs through Taika Waititi’s films (Boy, Jojo Rabbit). The humour may be quirky, but his movies never shy away from loss and tragedy. The stunning beauty of the New Zealand bush country…

You don't have to be a teen to watch this incredibly good, entertaining movie. It's completely suitable for adults who have a well-developed sense of humor. The young actor is very talented. Quite a few copies are available - watch it,…

Listed under dark comedy, this film, has a lot of laughs in it. A bit different you could say. Set in New Zealand, the accents, the scenery, the characters, the film offers a few hours of distraction, and fun. Not too real, but…

How did I miss this gem before now? It is a totally unexpected intergenerational-relationship movie that will make you laugh and cry and tell all your friends about. And as a bonus - the beautiful scenery of New Zealand takes your breath…

Really enjoyable film and surprising. Don't let the beginning give you the wrong impression. Stick with it. And Sam Neill, as ever, if good. If you'd like to see one of the most handsome men ever, see Sam Neill in My Brilliant Career.…

A cute film, with a great young actor taking the scenes. There is verbiage I am not keen on, but the story is very good.
