Watched this yesterday having seen the trailer on Friday morning, and laughing myself silly at it.
Story of a 12 year old kid sent from the city to live in rural New Zealand with new foster parents, one of whom is really enthusiastic and loving, whilst her husband, played by Sam Neill, is a canterkerous old fart.
The kid ends up lost in the NZ bush, eventually joined by Sam Neill's character and a nationwide manhunt ensues.
I found it terribly funny, but also poignant and really gets to care for the characters. Julian Dennison plays the kid, and is superb as the gangster infatuated Ricky.
