Gripping story with well-crafted characters
Excellent, smart action film.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
One of the best comedies produced in South Africa. Bill Flynn (R.I.P) and Paul Slabolepszy deliver an awesome performance, reviving their roles as Tjokkie Hetherington and Crispin Wentzel from their first film "Heel against the Head (1999)" respectively. You have to watch both these movies if you want laugh your pants off. The entire film is filmed in Kwazulu Natal and during the annual Comrades Marathon. The antics around the entire competition and between the two main characters and their rivals is hilarious. If you are South African or familiar with the slang, i promise you, you will be falling off your chair with laughter.
this is an amazing movie! it is an absolute classic the acting is great especially from both Grealy members there is none stop laughs throughout the entire movie if you get the chance to rent out this movie i highly recommend it it is one of the best south African film ever crafted Mr and Mrs Grealy well done i salute you on a prime performance i was very appalled when i saw this movie with a 3.0 rating it deserves at least a 9+ i have watched this movie easily more than 10 times and still enjoy watching it i myself am Australian and i am jealous that a South African film beats all Australian films in my top 10 outstanding 10/10
