Pork Pie

Perhaps not a totally original theme, but definitely a breath of fresh air as far as road trip movies go, and of course that amazing scenery! The main characters aren't goody-two shoes but you're unlikely to get fed up or annoyed with them. Although these fairly unknown actors did a fantastic job easily on par with more established ones, the star of the show has to be that mini! Now thanks to this movie, I would have to say that New Zealand can happily be known for something other then middle earth!

Ozzie/Kiwi stunner. Great warm and chuckling feeling all the way through the film. Great acting and the film work was equally as good. Just go watch it. PS about the only unbelievable thing about the film was a mini could go for so long without breaking down...... :) Excellent. 8/10

Brilliant movie. A modern take on an old classic. One of those movies that gets funnier the more times you watch it!! I went into this movie thinking there was no way it could ever be as good as the original......how wrong was I!! This movie had me laughing from start to end. We are taking two classic minis from Kaitaia to Invercargill on the Pork Pie Charity Run over Easter.....hopefully with no dramas like in the movie!!

This is one of the first movies I have watched in ages with real laugh out loud moments, I loved it! There were no boring moments, lots of action and laughs. Another great Kiwi film I would watch again and encourage everybody to go and see. The movie is a remake of the original Goodbye Pork Pie but stands on it's own as a new Kiwi classic in the making. It is Goodbye Pork Pie revamped so to speak - relevant for today. Not many movies can pull off a remake like this one has.

Where do I start. I LOVED Goodbye Pork Pie & made sure my son saw it. So when I saw it was being remade I wasn't sure if it would work, but my hopes grew when I saw many familiar family names in the writer's & crew. Then to see the cast, I was even more sure. I was so excited to get some of the last Tickets to the premier, where I thought walking the yellow carpet was the best thing. But now I know I was wrong, I have been telling everyone I can to see the movie & telling those that don't they are losers. I laughed so much, I cried, it took me back to the original, I left the cinema with almost no voice & very sore hands from clapping. But all we did on the way home was talk about the movie & how great it was. I loved every minute & will be going again very, very soon. I have to say the funniest part for me was when Tim unmasked to be Tim.
