VERY Funny submitted by arjlib234 on July 9, 2011, 9:47pm Loved every moment of each film.I recommend this to everyone

Very Funny submitted by sandylib123 on July 9, 2011, 9:53pm Oh my God, could not stop laughing. It is best even after so many year.

Terrific submitted by Jan Wolter on July 15, 2013, 6:48pm This is a hilarious and charming film, a sort of mock documentary of the collision between a bushman from deep in Africa and modern society, with a bit of a love story going on the side involving a man who becomes monumentally clumsy whenever he tries to talk to a woman. It'd be a great family film if weren't for few moments of fairly extreme violence.

The sequel film seems to be on this disk to. It's not nearly as good.

Wonderful submitted by crazypockets on August 30, 2013, 9:24pm I loved these movies as a kid. I found them fascinating because they took me to a world I had never dreamed of and let me learn about a completely different culture. It's fun to watch the culture-clash between the different people. My father who was an anthropologist got a big kick out of them, and I guess that's part of why I liked them so much, too. They're different from most of what's out there today and well worth checking out.

Simply Charming submitted by Kevin Harsch on June 15, 2023, 3:17pm A wonderful movie showing the over complex nature of modern life. If you like Napolean Dynamite, you'll this! "He don't know from reverse!"
