Hunt For The Wilder-people

Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a comedy film made in New Zealand. The director of this film is Taika Waititi. There are two main characters: Hec(Sam Neil) and Ricky Baker(Julian Dennison). Ricky Is juvinile Child and Hec hunts for a living They both run away from the police explore a forest and raid some houses get caught and then Hec goes to jail and Ricky finds a forester home with friends he found in the forest.

In my opinion I thought the movie was alright. It could have been better if they had more shooting scenes but all i think it was a great movie to watch. It had funny and awesome scenes. My favorite scene to watch was probably when they robbed the first house.

100 word story

Today we had to write a 100 word story about a picture of a cup. This is my story.

Once upon a time there was a cup.  It was a very special cup.  This cup was no ordinary cup! This cup was very, very, very special!  It was so special, not even the Queen could  touch it;  not even the person who created it  is even allowed to touch it!

 If it was touched by anyone it would release a dark spell and curse. Everyone, even those who didn't want to get involved with the curse starts off with not being able to breathe, leaving the whole world to die.  Nobody knows anything about the curse or why. Only the cup holds the secret!
