The Gods Must Be Crazy

Long before unexpected hit District 9, South Africa was making some great movies; for example The Gods Must be Crazy.

And long before the Mockumentary was a thing The Gods Must be Crazy was killing it.  The movie starts with what appears to be a nature documentary which quickly develops into three story lines that weave through each other towards an epic climax.  There are moments of quiet humour as well as some of the best visual/slapstick gags I've ever seen.  The kid thought those parts were pretty hilarious too. And for the bonus round there are some good opportunities to teach your kids about African politics so I guess you could also call that a win?

Rating: We really enjoyed The Gods Must be Crazy and we will be keen to watch it again in a little while.

Naughty bits:  There is an undies shot and some National Geographic boobs plus hostage drama and gun violence but none of the violence includes blood and gore.

Snacks:  A nice cool bottle of Coca Cola

Family In-quotes: "Oeyoeyoeyoeyoeyoeyoey..."
