Paradise Stop


I’ve said before that it’s good to have a laugh at ourselves every now and then, and clearly many South Africans agree: Leon Schuster wouldn’t be a rich man if we didn’t. Which is precisely why many filmgoers will enjoy the latest film from Kenneth Nkosi and Rapulana Seiphemo, which creates humour out of our South Africanisms, like crime, bad guys vs good guys, bribery and corruption.

The press release describes it best saying, “The film is peopled with a cast of eccentric characters who find themselves washed up in this remote town – an arrogant mayor, a spirited small-time gangster’s lackey, an easily beguiled desk sergeant, a simple minded swimming pool maintenance man, and a feisty, sexy security investigator who all become embroiled in a madcap comedy-thriller of errors.”

Rating: 3 outta 5.
