Kiwis loving Kiwi movies online

Kiwis are a nation of movie lovers. Fact.

And it turns out that we enjoy nothing more than spending a cold winter's night at home, watching a box office hit made on our own scenic shores.

Quickflix, New Zealand's first online movie and TV digital streamning service, has just compiled stats on the most popular new release films over the last month.

The results show that Kiwis are embracing local films and film makers, with singer Stan Walker's box office smash Mt Zion continuing its run at the top, while Peter Jackson's The Hobbit is at number three.

Rounding out the top five, Django Unchained comes in at number two, The Impossible at four, and new children's classic Tad at five.

"These results demonstrate that more of us are choosing to watch the latest releases via digital streaming," Quickflix said.
