Barry S A fun movie with plenty of laughter! It certainly kept us amused! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review andrea m A weird movie, lacking in technique but abounding in terms of soul. A solid direction drives us across New Zealand aboard the iconic yellow Mini, dodging shaky acting and editing all the way down to the final destination: Invercargill for the car, personal growth for the characters, entertainment for us. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A cult film that has enough surprises and action to hold the interest. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member There is no doubt this NZ Film features very little great acting or a complicated plot but it goes to show when your film is based on downright fun it can still work. The story of petty criminal who hires a mini illegally in Wellington then goes on a Rip Roaring trip through NZ with middle aged John who recently got dumped by his girlfriend. Fun, dodgy & imperfect film but a great adventure buddy road movie that simply works & I'm not sure why. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review harsh c There are a hundred better things you could be doing than watching this movie Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie has a lot going for it: compelling emotional character development, lightheartedness and understated humour, desperation, ordinariness, great personality, the road trip, the scenery, and of course, the seventies! It's unpretentious, straightforward storytelling with great car chases, crazy capers, memorable dialogue, punchlines, a darker side, an interesting poke at both convention and anarchy and an explosive finale. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
