Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Three separate story lines set in Africa eventually come together in this 1980 film by Jamie Uys. (The film wasn't released in the U.S., where it became a huge hit, until 1984.) Story one involves a bushman whose discovery of a Coke bottle causes consternation among his tribe, story two concerns an awkward romance between a clumsy scientist and a sweet schoolteacher, and the third plot involves a group of terrorists on the run. Slapstick, satire, romance, violence--it's all here in a somewhat bumpy but entertaining movie. --Tom Keogh

'The Gods Must Be Crazy' is a hilarious South African film set primarily in the Kalahari Desert in Botswana.

It begins when the pilot in an overflying airplane tosses a Coca Cola bottle out. It lands near a Bushman, who takes it to his tribe. They are all intrigued by it as they have never seen anything like it. All kinds of interesting uses are found for this amazing object.

The Bushmen are a primitive people who are nomadic and do not have a concept of property rights. ... Read More

Meanwhile, a new teacher, Miss Thompson, arrives in Botswana, and is picked up by a scientist, Dr. Steyn, who's both enamoured and nervous around her. And there's a crazy revolutionary running around.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Coke Bottle
Hard to believe that a Coke bottle can create that much fun.Sit down and enjoy 109 minutes of clean fun.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Original
THis movie has an average rating of 5 stars? Why is it because it has a big budget? Is it that has big name actors? Was it over hyped? The reason that everyone likes this movie is it is orignal and easy to follow. Watching this movie is about getting caught up in the story and letting go of the real world for a couple of hours. What a simple idea someone throws a coke bottle out an airplane and that changes someone's life. This is a very enjoyable movie.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good choice
was sent on time and was a GREAT MOVIE,package arrived in perfect condition as well.
