Hottoceame
The Age of Commercialism

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Kaelan Mccaffrey
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Ezmae Chang
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Guess what... The so called NZ Masterpiece has landed on the 2A$ table at Sam's Warehouse in Australia. Outch ! Request from "Gawkertours": Does anyone know the address of the house ? Surely, is this Dunedin reality ? A derelict place is burning electricity without anyone noticing. A town is switching to "Nuked-by-Neutron-Bomb" status, just because of a Rugby Grand Final. Squatters becoming rich from nowhere without the neighbours dobbing them in to police. Yes, Police. Apart from the Station sign not a single representation of the Force during this flick. The World ends - everybody is racing to NZ as they will not have noticed it...

I love this movie. It's funny and real and i'm sure most kiwi's can relate to it. The whole moving away from home to go to Uni in Otago or somewhere else. It's cleaver and I love the part when they superglue the guy's mouth and hands together and lock him in the basement is just... classic. I'm really thinking about buying it on DVD. It was on TV2 here in New Zealand on a saturday and it pulled in more viewers than most of the sunday night blockbuster movies that come from the US this year. Except I can't turn on my fellow moo-loo's OTAGO SUCKS!!! *Rings cow bell* sorry you would get it if you are a kiwi.

Started watching this film a little apprehensive - seemed to be much like other films made in New Zealand. Made you question what you would do in this position, a little slow to start but a very enjoyable film. Must see films for anyone who enjoys New Zealand films such as Goodbye Pork Pie and Smash Palace.

This film is another fine example of what New Zealand filmmakers can do when they hold the audiences' enjoyment above their own artistic w**k-ness.The Sarkies Brothers have created an extremely (un)pleasant film that isn't really about University life at all, but about those staple cinematic conventions -paranoia, murder and er, flatting.I strongly urge any one not from New Zealand to check out this little gem. God knows when it'll get released anywhere else though. I hope it gets onto screens in the U.S.One quibble however, three times in the film, characters describe each other as 'jerks'. Honestly, who in New Zealand uses that word with a straight face? It's such a sitcom-ism. 'Dick' would have been much more suitable in my eyes.
