anyone know the budget for this thing - I heard it was 10 million?

It's a New Zealand Film Commission film, so the budget will be no more than $4M at the most.

I love N.Z. films generally and appreciate the government's subsidy. But if the Film Commission gave more than $200 (US) to this stinker, they should be ashamed of themselves. Even the tattoo wasn't very good.

Yeah - it's not even going to released in theaters, instead it's going straight to DVD...what a bloody disgrace...

This has lost millions already, the people on the film commission, need to be fired for this. Other govt dept heads are, so I don't see why they should be any different.

Probably not if it's going to DVD, TV Sales etc.
