FILM REVIEWS

'Safari' is a tear-jerking tale that embraces simple virtues that seem to have been forgotten by modern cinema and the modern world.

'Neptune Frost' feels like it's set at the right time, in not just human history but African history too.

Our film critic Kelvin Kariuki ranks the six short films from Netflix's 'African Folktales Reimagined' collection.

'Married to Work' is the latest Pan-African title on Netflix that leaves your memory as quickly as it enters it.

Even the drawbacks of the film feel like an intentional choice to avoid the voices of adults from diluting what is simply a story of a boy.

Sacrificing plot for beauty, 'Disconnect 2' chooses to simple not care for story at all.

Even with all the raw materials for a powerful emotional story, 'Christmas Love' feels underwhelming.

'A Familiar Christmas' is simple enough to allow a family to glide in and out in the middle of watching it instead of worrying about the plot.

'No Simple Way Home' feels like what happens when true filmmakers seek out genuine stories and end up finding them rather easily close to home.

'Villains in the Metropolis' is a crime thriller by definition only as it largely fails to grasp the genre in its entire concept.
