Friday Feature: Hunt for the Wilderpeople

Friday Feature: Hunt for the Wilderpeople /

From acclaimed New Zealand director Taika Waititi, Hunt for the Wilderpeople is an irreverent comedy following the journey of two different generations of men. A defiant young boy finds a family and holds on to it even when outside forces work to disband his family. An old man finds comfort in fostering when life throws him. The entire film is hilarious hijinks, and the characters are absolutely funny even when some of the time the movie is sad. The two go on the run in the wild New Zealand bush and have to escape the police as well as a social services worker in a national manhunt. Definitely one to watch to get a nice long laugh!
