Take Home Pay

This isn't an Oscar nominee movie But...it is a light hearted, feel good,non vicious,family fun movie.

There's no drugs,no blood,at times no sense but it is very watchable if u are open to a bit of fun,open to culture and morals give it a go,it's simple but fir a very good reason.

It deals with some very complex issues that are also not that complex in the school of life and dies so without too much complication,this is why it is relatabke to adults and children alike,it has a little bit of what every age can understand in everyday issues,whether from a different country,different town or just a different school It's simple but works and very enjoyable if u are not into complicating.

Awesome, refreshing to see polynesian people and especially samoan actors and actresses doing their thing. My kids when do not speak samoan know the man name Tofiga. They could not stop laughing through the movie. I dont except a lot of people to understand this type of comedy. As David Tua put it O for Owesome lol. Faafetai lava.

I watched this movie not knowing what to expect. I don't soak samoan but subtitles made the dialog easy to follow. I loved this movie. It was funny, moving, and inspiring all at the same time. The character of Bob Titilo was so funny. The relationship between Alama and Popo was very touching but at times I wanted to beat Popo up. Overall a very enjoyable movie.

So happy it made it to the states! Was able to watch with the family & it had us laughing a lot. Obviously most people won't find it funny if you don't understand the language, culture & people. Also loved how it showed the raw island life. loved it!

Be an open-minded guest welcomed into contemporary Samoan stories that showcase their cultural values, challenges and humor. Its a tale about seasonal workers relocating to New Zealand looking to get ahead but one of which desires a wider range of fun and double crosses his friend in the process.

There's a lot of comedy sketches and phrasing one might recognize if they are familiar with Tofiga, of the comedy duo "The Laughing Samoans" and other Poly productions. Solid performances by the other actors, supporting and incidental, also keep this comedy action film pretty interesting and enjoyable.

With audio in Samoan and English, because the accents were sometimes harder to understand, I wish there had been subtitles for both languages. I toggled between a 6 and 7 rating, but chose the latter because it is a great but fun "slice of life" film most of the family can enjoy together, and highlights the importance of family values.
