Overall this was an enjoyable movie. The acting at times was a bit stilted, but Ian Roberts as usual was a real joy to watch. This very talented veteran South African actor holds the movie together, and the chemistry between Kagiso Mtetwa (Wonderboy) is a joy to behold. Ian Roberts deserves a lot more recognition for his acting career, and this is another example of why. The brutality of all aspects of the life of a street child in South Africa is portrayed unemotionally, and the viewer can draw obvious conclusions about the horrors of their daily life. They are truly the lost generation in South Africa. The cinematography wasbeautiful, hard to mess that up when dealing with the South African landscape. The same could be said about the soundtrack, and great mix of South African music, hard to mess that up much too. Seeing Ronnies Sex Shop in the movie brought a laugh to our faces. On a recent trip to South Africa driving through the Klein Karoo on Route 62, we came upon Ronnies Sex Shop. It is the strangest pub you've ever seen, and about an hour away from even another house, let along village or town. Great to see some quirky SA landmarks used in movies for a change. It's not a fantastic movie, but it's good, and well-worth watchi
