It's pretty much spot on from what I understand. He certainly nailed the character of the craggy old South Islander to the tee. The beach they filmed on was actually 90 Miles beach up near Keri Keri at the northern tip of the North Island but the rest was filmed on site. I usually make it a point to watch that film at some point on the trip every time I fly to NZ.... conveniently the next trip is in 2 weeks
