Painfully funny, the off-centre Eagle Vs Shark is a romantic comedy with soul. Directed by Academy Award nominated Taika Waititi and featuring Loren Horsley and Jermaine Clement, the film is the story of two lonely misfits who discover the right match isnt always perfect. Lily McKinnon (Loren Horsley) is an awkward fast food waitress, excluded because she doesnt fit in. Wrong dress, wrong walk, wrong talk, wrong everything. Yet beneath all the wrong is a little bit of wonderful. Jarrod (Jemaine Clement) is more interested in Lilys pretty workmate. He doesnt give a toss about the weird girl with the weird mole. Hes a video game champion, determined to win respect but pushing all the wrong buttons. The only person who sees beyond the bravado is Lily. So when, after only a brief liaison, Jarrod returns to his hometown on a mission of revenge, love-struck Lily follows him. Jarrod needs someone to have a bit of faith in him. Lily needs someone to love. Its not the perfect match, but maybe its a match worth fighting for.
