    SA cinema at its brilliant best

    Firstly well done on being the first fully South African movie on Prime!! Lekker. We enioyed it from start to finish! The characters, acting and story were great and seeing Cape Town shot so well, as well as some familiar faces was brilliant!! Jack Parow was hilarious! And all the leads were great.

    Its a fun story and really captures our culture on the funny side and knowing we aren't takijg ourselves too seriously, well at the same time making a smart, funny movie for all to enjoy! I look forward to the next one and wish all involved more success to follow. Lets hope its the start of many more SA hits!!! Pielle X.
