Charming film about an African bushmen tribe who find an evil Coca-Cola bottle sent from the gods (it was really from a litter-bug pilot) and takes it on a long journey to the end of the Earth so he can throw it off and never see it again. There, he meets a beautiful school teacher with a clumsy manure analyst, and political guerrillas out to make trouble. Essentially plotless, The Gods Must Be Crazy is very funny, entertaining and popular among many moviegoers. A recommended view! Followed by a sequel: The Gods Must Be Crazy II.
