Featured reviews
I have created an IMDb account just to review this movie. I don't even know where to start explaining the way in which this movie has touched and impressed me.
When watching it, you have to leave all your standards and expectations regarding cinematography behind because only then you can see it for the true masterpiece that it is. The whole context in which it was made adds to the beauty of it. The fighting scenes, especially the ones involving kung fu are, in my opinion, quite good even compared to Hollywood blockbusters. The acting doesn't even matter. The VJ, although I thought it would be rather annoying, turned out to be in fact really funny and exactly what this movie needed.
I applaud the whole cast and crew who produced with professionalism and dedication such a humble, hilarious and *action packed movie* on the lowest budget I have ever heard of.

I watched this movie with my friend over discord and I must say, I don't remember laughing so hard during a one hour long movie.
The narrator VJ Emmie made this movie so much better. Him shouting "commandos" "tiger mafia" "supa soldiers" and those random laughs, sound effects made me actually laugh out loud. The plot made sense.. kinda. Great music choices with Abba - Mamma Mia and Seal - Kiss from a rose. Very cool.
Action is coming, I promise you.

This movie has so much heart, and it is amazing to see people in such a dangerous, sad country spend time to make this. Sure, it's not a AAA movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio, but it is amazing for what it is. Look at this as a project for someone who has a passion for movies, but has the misfortune to not to make the best. This movie is hilarious, action- packed, and just great. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants a good laugh. This movie is a good inspiration for anyone who just wants to make a movie.
One reviewer laments the fact that it is obvious that these people never went to film school. They didn't, that's the point.
The director, to his credit, has built his film company from the ground up in the slums of Kampala. The film is a product of those slums. It is a film inspired by the best of Hollywood, but it is thoroughly Ugandan. Take the Video Joker ... this is a component of their distribution requirements because of the many languages and dialects they try to sell to. VJ commentary needs to be customized to their different customer's language needs. The English version is just one of the many they have to apply and market.
I encourage viewers to embrace the humor and bask in the raw talent of this incredible filmmaker.
It is wild and crazy and raw and illogical and funny ... so bad it is really good. This guy makes the exact kinds of movies he wants to make and figures out ways to do it within the realities he has to deal with on a daily basis. Kudos to him.

I want my life to be narrated by a ugandan video joker.
This movie is honestly really inspiring. It really shows just how fun it can be to make a movie.
