I was never really convinced that anything original ever happened in Benoni. (Besides ox wagon drive-by shootings, of course.) How wrong I was. If movies could be compared to theme parks, this one is a double-storey Disneyland with costume characters on speed, free passes, all-you-can-eat and centrefold ushers - there's something for everybody. Hail the writers. Applaud the actors. Respect to the visionaries who put their koeksusters on the block to put this together. To those who knock the film - how sad. Go home and enjoy your Deuce Bigalow collection if that's what passes as original comedy for you. To those who enjoyed it, push for a sequel. Rock on Crazy Monkey...
