Every kiwi lad dreams of greatness. But for little Randy Cambell, the dream is as big as the stunts his not-so-death-defying father died attempting. Young Randy Cambell yearns to be NZ's greatest living stuntman, much to the chagrin of his aunt and uncle who understand that the petrol running in Randy's veins is bound to ignite one day.
Can the love of a one-legged female Evil Knieval save Randy and break his descendants' long legacy of fiery and fatal confrontations with the grim reaper?
Will Randy survive working alongside stunt god Dick Johansonson and his jealous plots?

A hilarious quintessentially Kiwi bad taste romp brought to you by the Back of the Y team, Matt Heath and Chris Stapp. It made me proud to be a New Zealander (or close enough) and convinced me that we are finally finding a way to take the piss out of ourselves.
The gentle glorification of Te Puke and Auckland is one of the films more surprising strengths – we know we love these places even though they’re not really that impressive. Makes you proud to live here while celebrating our truly parochial little dreams of greatness.
A must see movie although not necessarily for the faint-hearted or those with a sensitivity to obscene language or multiple gratuitous dismemberment.
