Laughed out loud watching alone
This has not happened in a long time: I thought this was so funny, I laughed out loud several times. Even skipped back to rewatch perfect comedic timing.
Cast was incredible! All parts, especially the posse.
Well done!
The negative reviewers watched a different movie. Obviously.

Funny, honest, Pacific chick-flick
This is a beautifully made, very funny film about two women working out their sex and romantic lives in modern, multicultural Auckland. What I really like about it there is nothing mean-spirited in this film, it's very Kiwi, and the women are honest and hilarious - nothing vulgar about it. It's not an instant classic in the vein of Boy or Hunt for the Wilderpeople, but I think it will grow on me.
Cute and quirky - not a masterpiece though
I really enjoyed this kiwi movie, mostly for the really cute and quirky humour.
The movie does have a problem with pacing and setting up the different characters, and some of the scenes are just not really believable even in the quirky context (police station strip scene - watch it and you will know... although... I'm not a kiwi, maybe it is believable...).
But anyway, if you are looking for something nice and different to fill some boredom, this is a good choice. I certainly didn't regret watching it.

No filter friendship
I admit, I'm surprised it was a movie. I thought I had clicked on a TV series and was going to enjoy new break up scenarios every episode. So for me it was over too quickly and wrapped up too easily. But regardless, I had fun. I laughed, I cringed, I was entertained.
oh god yes!!
I'm european so maybe that's why i loved all the nasty humor but honestly i don't know what these people are talking about. this movie is a hidden gem. it's so freaking unique and original. the only thing i didn't like about this movie was how short it was!! it wasn't perfect but for a kiwi movie it was so much better than i expected. the acting from the two chicks was spot on. this isn't trying to win any oscars, it's just a ridiculous, hilarious movie to help you kill some time in a great way.
