Eagle vs Shark is the tale of two socially awkward misfits and the strange ways they try to find love; through revenge on high-school bullies, burgers, and video games.
A man decides to turn his moribund life around by winning back his ex-girlfriend, reconciling his relationship with his mother, and dealing with an entire community that has returned from the dead to eat the living.
Bella and Hector, two reclusive country folk, become foster parents to Ricky, a problem child from the city. After some adjustment, things go reasonably well. However, the death of Bella means Hector now has to look after Ricky, and they didn't get along too well. Moreover, her death causes Child Services to decide to send Ricky back to the orphanage. Ricky refuses to go back and runs away, ultimately sparking a national manhunt for him and Hector. Written by

This is such a funny, heartwarming, immensely entertaining, brilliant
film for the whole family. I can't wait to go again, and again....
Taika is a genius. The entire cinema clapped when it finished which
I've never seen before. It's now my absolute favourite film of all
time!! LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie!!!!!!! It is effortlessly funny with a
brilliant cast of very talented Kiwi actors. The scenery is of course
beautiful because it's set in New Zealand's stunning landscape. Even
though there are serious, universal underlying issues within the script
they are dealt with in a way that is from the child's innocent
perspective so the film remains light and entertaining throughout. If
this film doesn't do exceptionally well off shore and get the global
recognition it deserves, it will be a travesty.
