Hunt for the Wilderpeople 12A

“I didn’t choose the skux life. The skux life chose me.”

Taika Waititi, director of last year’s hilarious vampire movie What We Do in the Shadows, is back with another slice of Kiwi absurdity. Ricky (Julian Dennison) is a defiant kid from the city, who finds himself stuck in the middle of the wild New Zealand bush with his bad-tempered foster uncle (Sam Neill).

Hunt for Wilderpeople is a funny and touching film about two unlikely companions who put aside their differences to work together - but then, what else can you do when you’re the subject of a national manhunt?
