Leon Schuster is back and set to rake in more millions from the South African public. Whether we like it or not, there’s a reason why he’s so successful: he makes the majority of the population laugh so hard that they cry, and he does this simply by making fun of us as a nation. This movie is no different.In a return to his candid-camera style, Schuster manages to p-off everyone from Helen Zille to fishermen in the Cape. He gets klapped, gets into trouble and once again paints his face black, thus offending a number of other people. I guess I must accept that Schuster is in fact a part of our collective South African culture, and admit that sometimes he can be fairly amusing. More than this I cannot do – besides hope that one day we learn to appreciate movies of more substance with the same vigour.
Rating: 3 outta 5.
