I guess you have to be a Kiwi?
24 May 2011
I'm gay, and the friend I went to see this with is a lesbian, and we like gay-positive films, and the New York Times review of this was VERY positive, so we went, expecting to have a good time. Not so much. The accents are almost impenetrable (and we both thought we understood folks from Down Under pretty well), the sound quality in general is awful (at least at the Shattuck Cinema in Berkeley), and the "story" is pretty thin and repetitive. The stereotypes they are poking fun at must be local ones, as we found the songs and skits pointless, silly, and way out of date. SO unless you are already a fan of the Topps, and speak Kiwi, don't expect much from this.
