Ian Douglas: Interesting for its portrayal of life in that part of the world. However the plot is full of holes and descends into Hollywood slapstick at times. It also takes toilet humour to a new depth when one character literally lands deep in the poo.

Elize Wolvaardt: So-so.

Keith Forbes: See this movie! The best I've seen in a long while. Very funny and refreshingly novel.
