This New Zealand film fits in a very narrow vein of humor that will either make you love this film or not be able to get through very much of the footage. I happen to love the director Taika Waititi and this type of humor and really enjoyed this ride. A young orphan boy finds a very unlikely parent in Sam Neill and goes on a crazy adventure while being pursued by the hilarious Rachel House as a local authority. One of my son’s favorite movies. Incredibly highly rated for a comedy.
