Director: Mark Beesley
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A broad, largely predictable and mostly unamusing Kiwi comedy about a biker family beset by internal and external pressures and trying to preserve their sense of freedom and individuality in a conformist world. True, characters like the leather clad forty-something parents are seldom seen as central, and the film is fundamentally good natured, but the narrative is too thin to sustain interest at feature length.Author: GA
