Jamie Uys took ages with each and every scene that got almost handcrafted on a one on one basis. He developed and nurtured a very special relationship with the Bushman as well as any of the actors in his movies. Everything in that movie is genuine and sincere, including the Bushman from the Kalahari. You can read more about this from here.

Yep. It's a great movie. There are many stories about it. The Bushman's real name's Nǃxau. It seems he was paid only 300 USD for the first movie and he had no idea what to do with that at that time. But when they made the second movie he negotiated to get half a million USD. Probably with someone else help. I don't think even that didn't help him much since he just bought a used car and built a brick house.
Another really good movie to watch is this one called The Tournament (2009). If you like Action Thriller movies then this is a must-watch. It's simply nonstop action from start to end. 95% action and 5% everything. This is one of the pure-blooded action-thriller movies. It's hard to believe the movie budget was only 8 million USD. It's unfortunate they couldn't secure a good distributor for the movie which result in less popularity. Plus whoever made the Trailer
had done a terrible job compared to how amazing the movie is. Which makes the movie looks like a terrible B movie.
I suggest you guys going directly to the movie rather than watching the trailer. I often see trailers are amazing and movies suck but this is one where it's the total opposite.
