I was surprised at how much I liked this film. It was very well done despite having been made on quite a low budget; it was a surprise hit in 1980, apparently.

There's a fascinating 'extra' on the DVD, interviewing some of the real bushmen actors - who were rather different from the people they portrayed, much happier about beginning to adopt technology and other western innovations.

The rating is PG in both US and UK; there's some minor bad language in appropriate places which might offend some parents, and also several shots of people in underwear, in awkward and amusing situations. Unlikely to be of interest to anyone under the age of about ten or eleven. ( )

A Bushman sets off to throw an "evil" Coke bottle off the edge of the world.

Great concept. Great story. Terrible movie. ( )

Very funny. "Do you hear those voices inside my head?"
Aye yea yea. ( )
