Probably one of the most famous movies to come out of Africa, I had only heard of this movie, never seen it. What I expected from this was a silent era-esque performance from the main actor in a full on slapstick comedy with barely any story. Man was I wrong.
The story behind this movie is as relevant now as it was back then and it still packs a punch with what it set out to do, make us realise the immoral things we have done to this world. This was my favourite part of the movie.
My least favourite part was the comedy, it just didn't seem to live up to my expectations or today's standards. Maybe another watch will see me enjoy the humour a bit more but I think that the 80's was where it belonged.
