Hunt for the Wilderpeople

CHASE ***1/2
I'm not exactly sure why this is, but I absolutely loved "Hunt for the Wilderpeople."  Set in New Zealand, the film tells the story of a manhunt as a foster kid and his foster uncle are in the wilderness running from the police.  This movie is absolutely hilarious.  I can only think of a few comedies that made me laugh as hard and as consistently as this did.  Not only that, I thought the characters were relatable and extremely memorable.  I feel like that I really got to know each one of them.  It's one of those films that really grabbed me from the very beginning to the very end.  However, the only thing that's pulling me back is that while it can be really funny, I thought there were a few moments where it went a little bit over the top, even by its standards.  But overall, I absolutely loved this movie and I think a lot of people should check it out.  It's amazing.
