Good but could have been better
16 March 2023
South Africa, 1930s. An English boy, PK, is sent to a conservative Afrikaans boarding school. There he is mercilessly bullied by the Afrikaans boys. PK ends up living with his grandfather and there befriends a Cape coloured man, Geel Piet, who teaches him to box, something he shows an immediate talent for.

Good, but could have been better. Started out very well but got fairly predictable and clichéd after a while.

Good performances all round. Stephen Dorf is good in the lead role. The superstars, Morgan Freeman and Sir John Gielgud, don't disappoint. Interesting to see Daniel Craig in one of his earlier roles (and as a villain to boot!).
