Blandine Stefanson, Sheila Petty Directory of World Cinema Africa 2015 1783203919 "... cinematographer: Seamus McGarvey Production designer: David Barkham music: Joe Nina editor: Oral Norrie Ottey ... 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.."
