Anyone seen this film by pilot Kim Hollows?

I will be in NZ soon and might try and get to Te Anau. Anyone seen this movie?

YouTube - Ata Whenua Fiordland (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbqmMt8Vwzc&feature=related)

For those outside New Zealand, Kim Hollows is a fairly well known pilot from Te Anau in the lower South Island (Mainland of New Zealand ;))

Well worth it...Absolutely stunning footage of Fiordland !!!!

Totally co-incidentally I just bought the DVD (now waiting on the post...) on the recommendation of a mate who's a pilot and professional cameraman (ie so knows a little more about these things than me...;)). He couldn't speak highly enough of it, says it's a stunning film to see in that cinema those guys bought just to show it :cool:. Let us know what you think after you do see it Mike, the clips look immense :)

I made a Helicopter movie once! Sold the footage to the National Geographic channel to just break even on the production costs, Go for it Kim!

Cheers Scissorlink :ok:

Ok, seen it now. Fantastic scenery, beautiful place to see, absolutely stunning. Must go there some time :)

Don't expect the film to be about helicopters though. I suspect they had a bit more footage of the helis in action than actually made it into the production, which from my (purely personal) pov was a bit of a shame. The few bits that did make it in are great though.

Enjoy! BM

Yes it is very good. I went to Te Anau to see it while on a recent trip to NZ.
As per BM's comments above, it is a beautiful part of the world.

Flights like that make this a pretty good job some days...

I trained in Fiordland, seen the movie but the real things better.
Top flick though.

Sorry to dredge up old thread, but happened by chance to find a clip of pilot/operator/filmmaker Kim Hollows and his deer hunting operation, for those who are interested.

We visted Te Anau about 4 years ago. What a fantastic place & area. So I too have ordered the DVD.
