Audience Member This sports movie was pretty good. Frank Reutenbach, Sarah Thompson, David Sherwood, and the rest of the cast did a pretty good job in this movie. This true story about the famous cricketer of the South African cricket team Hansie Cronje was dramatic and tragic. It's about doing something that's against God's will and suffering the consequences later. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. You may enjoy it. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Dire and Dismal...Hansie disappoints on so many levels. A great South African story about a disgraced hero that just falls flat. The acting is bad..so bad. The actress who portrays Bertha CRonje is horrible, her accent is all over the place and it's quite off putting. The lead is good-looking, a little too good-looking to play Hansie Cronje who was a rugged, 'Camel man' type. He certainly didn't have the piercing blue eyes that Frank Rautenbach has. The only one who shows any kind of acting chops is Brandon Auret, whom South African audiences will recognise from TV's Binnelanders. The script is painful, the dialogue stilted. The films only saving grace is the cinematography, portraying as it does some of the most beautiful places in South Africa, Fancourt in George in particular in a stand-out scene near the end of the movie. The Christian aspect is slightly overplayed..are we supposed to accept that a crook and conman was also a devout Christian? This theme doesn't sit very comfortably with the rest of the film and the 'baptism' scene in particular being slightly jarring. The whole tone of the film seems rushed and fails on so many levels.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This was actually a decent South African movie. I cried at the end. I still say South Africans can't act though, but this was alright.
