+Lincoln Falana In the first movie she's not bad ass shes like a little bitch just running and then by the second one she knows about skynet and the terminators and ahs dealt with everything from the first movie so shes badass... and can do chin ups.
What We Do in the Shadows was the best horror comedy since Shaun of the Dead so I'm confident with another comedy. Beside the buzz from Sundance has been positive.
It makes me so happy to see NZ directors producing such good content on such a low budget, and so sad that the rest of the world could never understand.
+Shiftshapercat It must be because I recently heard a review about it on Film Week which is an american podcast/radio hour on the weeks films. They said it was really great.
Have just seen this, here in W.A. it's brilliant, haven't laughed so much at the movies in a long time. All the actors are great, but Julian Dennison and Same Neil are the main actors and did a great job. Congratulations to all involved in this movie
Real good hes really good at acting and he gets really into character plus hes got like maori vibes so i really like him and he suits his role perfectly
Just finished watching this as I saw the trailer for it in the cinemas. I have to admit, this was pretty good and great performances by the whole cast, I enjoyed it. Good from start to finish. Highly watchable and better than anything hollywood's coming up with at the moment. 10/10 :-) If your on the fence about watching, just do yourself a favour and watch it already.
I was in a shop today humming "Ricky Baker now you are thirteen years old, you are a teenager and you are as good as gold" everyone was staring at me but I was happy
You've done it again, Taika. This guy really knows how to use our timid Kiwi humour to the most hilarious effect. And with Peter Jackson failing with the underwhelming Hobbit trilogy, Id have to say that Taika is NZs best director at the moment. No wonder disney have hired him to direct a Marvel film.
+MRLEGOSTARKILLER I did see also Jackson didnt have enough prep time. So when Deltoro dropped out and Jackson replaced him one year into prep, Jackson lost an entire year after jackson started from scratch.
this movie probably cost $5000 to make...yet it was way better than the hollywood bullshit over here & all its crap CGI to save it...well done NZ & thoroughly enjoyed it!
We finally got some Aussie content about a year ago. McLeod's Daughters, which is like ten years old lol. Great show but yeah, way too long to wait and for no good reason. Netflix needs to get it moving.
"You're more like Sarah Conner, in the first one before she could do chin ups." That line had me in tears.
I still don't get it

+velozzerraptor well to be fair, she wasnt exactly having what you might call an average day.

It's majestical
Great reference bro

I trust our friends in NZ to do the right thing and share this with the rest of the world. I mean, come on, we share our annoying tourists with you.

+Mike Emmons Coming to the rest of the world this year. Keep an eye out for dates.

if you want to know what "townie hell" looks like, google "stratford ontario" some time.
This was such a brilliant, well-made, well-acted, well-directed film. Take tissues. Support NZ cinema. You won't be disappointed!
"You hungry? That's a silly question isn't it?" then that laugh. GOLD
What a wonderful movie
"Faulkner is Caucasian""we'll they got that wrong cause your obviously white"'
If the creators of Up were baked

TOP COMMENT! Had me in tears 😂
good old NZ humour
the worst kind. I saw it tonight. same forced unfunny humor as "WWDITS."
+darren motise you probs have a dry sense of humour or just prefer dark humour ?
The instantly become my favorite movie. Love the witty humour and character. Instant cult classic
What We Do in the Shadows was the best horror comedy since Shaun of the Dead so I'm confident with another comedy.
Beside the buzz from Sundance has been positive.
it's really good 😉
If I could be anything it would be New Zealand.
Take Waititi is some kind of genius. 😊 and lots of my favourite people. I hope gets released here in the UK.
*Taika Waititi
+Jobocks thanks. (Stupid auto-correct!)
It makes me so happy to see NZ directors producing such good content on such a low budget, and so sad that the rest of the world could never understand.
Ryan Reynolds recommended this movie to me on facebook.

He got the kid into Deadpool 2.
I love the bit with the girls dad "The Bloody warriors YOUR RICKY BAKER
the comedic delivery of the last scence is science.

+Shiftshapercat probs not you only get it if u are a new zealander like me
This film is addictive - my household has watched it repeatedly since being introduced to the movie by a friend on a recent visit to Melbourne .
Have just seen this, here in W.A. it's brilliant, haven't laughed so much at the movies in a long time. All the actors are great, but Julian Dennison and Same Neil are the main actors and did a great job. Congratulations to all involved in this movie
"Are you hungry..........that's a silly question look at you"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh man, I loved What We Do In The Shadows to bits. Can't wait for this.
That is honestly one of my favourite movies... If only my crappy cinema was playing this :(
have you watched boy?
+your dad I grew up watching boy with my family in Tauranga. That movie was great
boy will always be my favourite movie
Just saw it, was absolutely hilarious and pretty majestical ;)
Hoping this comes to the U.S. The entire audience loved it at the Sarasota Film Festival this weekend. Such an entertaining and heartwarming film!
First 'What We Do in the Shadows', then this movie, and finally 'Thor Ragnarok'. Taika is officially a new legend.
Great story, great acting, great scenery and only one filthy all-seeing eye ! 8/10
This is one of the best comedies I've seen in a very long time and awesome for families. Go see it!
"He makes me do things...sometimes..." Hilarious 😂 Saw it this morning. Must see.
From the USA: Love, love, love this movie!
For all those musically challenged who keep asking what the opening piece is: It's the famous Christmas song, "Carol of the Bells."
What's the song at the end of the trailer? Around 2:15
omg my WHOLE family watched this on saturday i reccomend watching it you wont regret it so go to youre nearest cinema/theatre to watch it ASAP!!!!!
+Brenna Caulfield how well does the kid play his part
Real good hes really good at acting and he gets really into character plus hes got like maori vibes so i really like him and he suits his role perfectly
Is that Hugh Jackman, or that manager guy from Flight of the Concords?! I'm confused.
+JanPospisil42 Obviously it's Rhys Darby, not Hugh Jackman. :)
its the dude from jurrassic park. the paleontologist.
ƁᴇғᴏʀᴇƮʜᴇļɴᴛᴇʀɴᴇᴛ Hard to see under the beard. They have similar eyes. ;)
Seriously?.....Hugh Jackman?!?!
+JanPospisil42 that's Sam Neil

Didn't take too long to reach a million views. I hope you guys see the movie. It's awesome!
Why does this kid look exactly like Rebel Wilson?
just watched this last night. Original work and unpredictably funny! well done!
This was one of my favorite books as a kid.
This was awesome!!! Go see it.
sad as well
Does anyone know the name and composer of the classical music from 2:14 ? Would really appreciate it.
Was so keen for this and was definitely not disappointed

And with Peter Jackson failing with the underwhelming Hobbit trilogy, Id have to say that Taika is NZs best director at the moment. No wonder disney have hired him to direct a Marvel film.
+Anton Nzl Jackson unfortunately was heavily controlled by the studios during the hobbit. Probably why this movie looks great.
+MRLEGOSTARKILLER I did see also Jackson didnt have enough prep time. So when Deltoro dropped out and Jackson replaced him one year into prep, Jackson lost an entire year after jackson started from scratch.
Haven't laughed so hard in YEARS. Cried laughing! Coughed laughing! Folded over laughing!
I cant wait to see it!
Anyone know the name of the song that starts at 1:34? I've been searching for it for a while now but am having no luck!
This is such a gem. Not sure how it showed up on my Netflix. What a great movie.
Just watched this! It was amazing! That kid has unreal comedic delivery!

+Maddy “Tater Salad” Perennity Omg weird its like what normally happens to us New Zealanders. I pray for your netflix though.
We finally got some Aussie content about a year ago. McLeod's Daughters, which is like ten years old lol. Great show but yeah, way too long to wait and for no good reason. Netflix needs to get it moving.
Just saw this movie tonight. Fantastic lighthearted movie with plenty of laughs and tender moments too. Kiwi comedy at its best. Great casting also.

Saw this movie today, gosh haven't laughed in a movie for ages. Was brilliant! True Kiwi styles...and only Kiwi's would get it! Nice job Taika
