To call the script "shaggy" would be far too generous. It's baggy and flat, and at its worst falls back into extremely tired (and insulting) tropes.

It's crude, vulgar and slapdash, so don't go along expecting the Lubitsch touch.

The kind of female-focused buddy comedy that cinema could use considerably more of.

The first film by a New Zealand female comedy duo, it's in-your-face bawdy, outspoken but also very funny showcase for their multiple talents.

A new addition to the New Zealand invasion of comedy, with hysterical jokes, infectious energy, and an honest story about friendship.

"The Breaker Upperers" is a film that I had a chance to see twice in one day. After the first viewing, with a second helping on offer, I did not hesitate, not for a second.

Their film feels marvelously shaggy around the edges - their personalities pop - until after a whiplash-funny first hour, they play it safe with an everyone-gets-a-hug Paul Feig-style climax.

If we have the good sense we will throw our money at writer-director-stars Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek, because they certainly have a whole lot more to say.

Brimming with proof that, given the chance, Aotearoa's female talent have their own stories to tell - and are no less hilarious in doing so.

Most importantly of all: it's funny. Really, really funny, consistently and constantly. The pair are a wonderful double-act on screen.

As hilarious as it is, the film packs so much more of a punch because of how genuine Van Beek and Sami's friendship comes across onscreen.

The Breaker Upperers is a joy from start to finish.
