I highly recommend this one.

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2006)

This was a great "feel good" movie, which I haven't seen in a long time. Mr. Hopkins is obviously proud of this movie and should be - it was a very fun night. His love of the character that Bert Monro truly was, is captured in this movie. It makes me want to know more about this man from New Zealand. You couldn't help but pull for this character. Bert had such a positive view of life that is lost in this age. It was very refreshing to see something original in amongst so many remakes and sequels. Hopkins should have been in the Oscar nominations, but I don't understand why this reached the Oscar voting window so late. I would think that the release of a movie revolves around what an Oscar nomination can do for profits.
