Andre Y 05/19/2023 I thought the film was fun. I hardly get to watch South African films, but this movie has so much potential to be an on-going franchise See more 06/07/2022 I thought this film was pretty good for a low budget movie. Need more South African films like this See more 05/27/2022 If you're looking for a great use of your time then The Bush Knife is the way to go. I recently watched this movie and to put it plainly, it was like watching a Tiger Action. A totally Nostalgic experience. Directed by Renalod Kell and starring Bruce Gounder, Jerome Naidu and Ryan Maybe, The Bush Knife told a completely Beautiful story. The Bush Knife is a typical Grind house action thriller movie about characters who embark on a journey of Grindhouse revenge story. Despite the obstacles, big and small, the characters in the movie, as well as the viewers, still meet a great end. The performances from Bruce Gounder, Jerome Naidu and Ryan Maybe illustrate the narrative of this movie with such a viable effort. Consequently, this film ended up being as strangly awesome as it is. The Bush Knife intertwined visuals, audio, and plot in a very Nostalgic way. It was as if Renalod Kell combined the characters, the setting, and the valued objects within the film and then threw them into a mixing bowl to create a giant serving of great Roasted chicken. As a viewer, chewing and pondering on the quality of my Roasted chicken, I couldn't help but think about how sweet it tasted. The flavors of the film blended so great-ly that I considered getting a Tiger for emotional support! This story of Grindhouse revenge story is a triumphant effort on Renalod Kell's part in making viewers weep with joy. Overall, I found The Bush Knife to be Nostalgic, Beautiful, and strangly awesome! It is a great plate of Roasted chicken, seasoned with the theme of Grindhouse revenge story, and sure to leave you with a lingering sweet taste in your mouth.
