Eagle vs Shark
I finally got around to seeing the little kiwi film that could; Eagle vs Shark. The best way I can think of describing it is a kiwi version of Napoleon Dynamite. The basic story follows a nerd who has a huge grudge on a Samoan boy who used to beat him up at school. He has been training in the arts of Kung Fu and fancies himself quite the pro now (Nunchuks are his specialty), so when his high school nemesis returns to his home town from Samoa he leaves at once to kick his ass and regain to families honour. Oh, and there’s a girl, a very geeky girl that is in love with the nerdy boy and will follow him anywhere, even back to his hometown.
Although the movie can get a bit dull in places there are plenty of great scenes that while have you on the verge of wetting your pants in fits of laughter. It is definitely worth watching if you are in the need of a good laugh.
