True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

This film is an example of classic Kiwi comedy. It embodies the true in-your-face, slapstick, and quite frankly brilliantly stupid humour of those two little islands in the pacific that wont let anyone tell them what to do.Based around the premise of a young boys dream to become a daredevil stuntman this film is filled with in-jokes, sometimes slightly racist (against New Zealanders don't worry)slurs and a sense that the guys who made it had fun so who are you to judge its quality.It may not have great acting or a well developed plot but if you sit back and take the film for what it is you cant go wrong.I've watched it about 4 times and cried with laughter on each occasion although I understand that this might be hard for someone from outside New Zealand to achieve.

This film rocks!!!! It has everything from outrageous humour, blood and guts and everything else disgusting and it even has love story thrown in for you romantics out there. Not sure its really a date movie, well not unless your girlfriend is very cool with a wicked sense of humour anyway, though my sister and I LOVED IT!! I saw this film back in August in the UK and have been waiting for it to be shown again here as I cannot wait to see it again. The quick and witty the one liners will be popping up in your head for a very long time to come, making you laugh out loud at the most inopportune moments. The characters are well mixed and you can't help but like the good and secretly love the bad, I can't rate this film highly enough it is a definite MUST SEE movie. It may be short but it is most certainly SWEET!! And the sound track is pretty awesome too, what more can I say other than you would be mad to miss it!!

Even though I'm not a kiwi (yet), I've enjoyed this movie a lot! As previously noted, it brings heaps of cool songs. And although it is full of "F words" and other nasty aspects, they fit the characters and the movie context perfectly. Of course it is a cheap movie, and of course the story could be improved and all that good stuff. But hey, had this been the case, perhaps this movie would just have been another movie... Being exactly like this is what makes it great! Looking forward to buying the DVD so that I can share this pearl with my friends around the world.Cheers, GG
