Hunt for the Wilderpeople. 101 mins.
Hunt for the Wilderpeople’ has been a huge audience favourite with its brand of dark New Zealand humour, coupled with a boy’s own adventure story that goes, not merely off the rails, but off-road and off-grid.  Sam Neill plays Hec, a spectacularly grouchy old bushman who ends up in the wilderness with a chubby 13-year-old orphan-gangster called Ricky Baker, (played by a smart Julian Dennison).  Directed by Taika Waititi.
