Movies: HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE


April 16, 2016

FROM THE DIRECTOR OF BOY - TAIKA WAITITI

From the director of ‘Boy’ and ‘What We Do In the Shadows’,Taika Waititi new film is a hilarious and heartfelt adventure based on Barry Crump’s novel, ‘Wild Pork & Watercress’. Ricky (Julian Dennison) is a defiant young city kid who finds himself on the run with his grumpy foster uncle (Sam Neill). A national manhunt ensues and the two are forced to work together to survive.

Guardian UK "Dennison holds his own opposite Neill, who hasn’t been tasked with such a gravely amusing role in years. Together, the two are comic dynamite."

The Hollywood Reporter "Perfectly balanced blend of drama and comedy, action and heart. What makes Wilderpeople memorable is how attached audiences become to the characters, and as played by Dennison and Neill, they are two fully realized, full of flaws but nonetheless oh-so loveable human beings."
