SXSW 2018: Breaker Uppers, Dir. Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek


Comedies are so much more fun to watch when you can tell the filmmakers had fun making them. Based on that, Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek were having a blast. They play two besties who run a business professionally breaking up couples. Great concept for a flick, and it drives the plot and the laughs nicely. The gigantic cast of who’s who comedians of New Zealand should draw you in alone, but stay for a giggle-fest about friendship.
