Critique :Jump the Gun is often overlooked in surveys of post-apartheid film, but in its easy-going way it is a significant film in the cultural landscape of South Africa's fledgling democracy. It might lack the gloss and high-profile cast of Darrell Roodt's Cry, the Beloved Country (1995), but it is a far more authentic representation of South African identities in transition.."
