Review of Chief Zabu (2016) by Sophia W — 02 Nov 2016
The movie Chief Zabu gives a hilarious take on politics and business. The plot and cinematography of Chief Zabu is just as relevant now as it was when first-time directors Neil Cohen and Zack Norman filmed it thirty years ago.
Hollywood funny man Allen Garfield stars as Ben Sydney, a neurotic and overly optimistic New York real estate developer, who dreams of cashing in on a huge international deal with the newly independent South Pacific island of Tiburaku.
Ben recruits his long time buddy and business partner Sammy Brooks, played by co-director Zack Norman, to help him secure the deal that would allow him major investment opportunities on the island. From obtaining fishing rights to even building the roads, Ben and a group of other businessmen eagerly look for ways to exploit Tiburaku in hopes of gaining status and money.
The comical dialogue from the cast makes Chief Zabu not only funny, but intelligently made. If you enjoy clever comedies, Chief Zabu delivers in a great way. I definitely recommend watching it.
