Hunt for the Wilderpeople

CriticsCritics: 89
AudienceAudience: 8.0

A defiant city kid is placed with a gruff foster uncle on a remote New Zealand farm. When circumstances send them fleeing into the bush and a national manhunt begins, the mismatched pair must set aside their differences and rely on each other to make it through.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like offbeat, warm-hearted adventures, eccentric humor, and unlikely companions finding common ground; Not for you if you prefer tightly plotted stories or jokes that land consistently.
