Hunt for the Wilderpeople

Director: Taika Waititi

Starring: Sam Neill, Rima Te Wiata, Oscar Kightley, Cohen Holloway, Rhys Darby

A national manhunt is ordered for a rebellious kid and his foster uncle who go missing in the wild New Zealand bush.

"A big-hearted picture full of small, understated moments of magic, the New Zealand-based comedy-drama Hunt for the Wilderpeople is an off-kilter charmer. Directed by Taika Waititi (co-director of the uproarious vampire mockumentary What We Do in the Shadows), this downplays the broad laughs of its predecessor, instead focusing on the emotional thrust of a mismatched buddy movie."
