10/07/2019 best movie in existence kiwi ingenuity at its finest a critically acclaimed masterpiece made right here in good old nz See more 02/01/2014 This is one of the few comic book movies that is actually good. See more 11/25/2013 Awesome NZ time warp See more 03/28/2013 Bit of an odd one. Nice to see an animation that's not sterile and sanitised like Disney, but it didn't have the depth its reputation implied - a bit simplistic. I found it occasionally cheesy, and of slightly questionable political correctness too, so I guess this is mainly one for the people who grew up with it. Much better than most feature length animations though. See more 01/14/2012 One of my favourite comic strips (I still own a few of my grandad's books!) and a decent cartoon/movie. Very short, but it fits in all the characters, has a nice flashback to Dog as a pup & has Wal aspiring to be an All-Black. Very Kiwi/bogan & kitchy (especially the music), but lots of charm & fun.
