FILM & THEATRE

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

In 'Speak their Names', Silvia Cassini wields her mighty pen to present us a powerful tale set in the summer of 1587 in Triora.

In 'Blessed Be the Fruit', director Martin Kigondu takes us through a harrowing tale of a teenage nun.

'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.

Our favourite Kenyan films on Netflix as ranked by our critic Kelvin Kariuki.

'Terastorm' doesn’t feel ready for a release, let alone as Kenya's submission for Best International Feature to the 95th edition of the Oscar.

'Nafsi' starts off as a truly warm story about friendship before it evolves into a dark tale of double cross without feeling like two movies.

Arguably Kenya's most successful film, 'Supa Modo' should be our 'Parasite.' Our 'Touki Bouki.' It genuinely deserves it.
