This Town: Directed by David White. With Robyn Malcolm, David White, Alice May Connolly, Rima Te Wiata. Five years after being acquitted for the murder of his family, Sean is finally ready to move on with life. But the bitter ex-cop who led the investigation remains adamant that he’s guilty – and will stop at nothing to bring him down.

“I do love Kiwi humour and comedy. u0026quot;This Townu0026quot; has it in spades and delivers it in a unique mockumentary style which suits the comedy style perfectly.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt reminded me a little of u0026quot;Eagle vs Sharku0026quot; mixed with the Rhys Darby series u0026quot;Short Poppiesu0026quot; (if murder was involved). There are numerous laugh out loud moments and enough quirkiness to make you smile. It begins strong and ends strong.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s fairly easy to watch and the short runtime ensures youu0026#39;re never too bored. It does lose its way in the middle though and begins to take itself too seriously. It goes a little too long between laughs, and when youu0026#39;re talking of massacres and grief so much, it gets a bit depressing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf youu0026#39;re a fan of New Zealand comedy and dark, dry humour then you might like this. Unique rom-com.”
