Writer and director Shaka King has arrived!
1 July 2013 | by clicclix2See all my reviews

Making it's debut at the Sundance Film Festival, Newlyweeds is a coming of age story that many will identify with on so many levels. If laughter is essential to life's happiness then Newlyweeds is a must see! Great performances from a sensational cast. The comedy is infectious and anyone who doesn't tear up from laughter needs their pulse checked! The camera work alone keeps the audience guessing what's next and there's an overhead ariel shot during a heartfelt scene that made me want to reach up and hug the character Lyle. Great film, superb cast, and lots of laughs. Shaka King has arrived on the shores of cinema with a new energy, vision and voice.
