A trio of accidental outlaws travel the length of New Zealand, protesting conformity and chasing lost love, with a posse of cops and a media frenzy in pursuit.
Practical Effects
Real Mini Cooper stunts that CGI would murder.
Acting
Dean O'Gorman's manic desperation is uncomfortably relatable.
Direction
Matt Murphy's debut somehow balances sweetness and vehicular crime.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is a loose remake of the 1981 NZ classic Goodbye Pork Pie, which essentially invented the Kiwi road movie genre.
The Minis were modified for stunts but kept their original engines — every jump you see is practical effects on a shoestring budget.
