A Jamaican classic - not to be missed.
A classic Jamaican film. Contains one of the best Reggae soundtracks ever. Artists like Bob Marley support the soul of the film.
Viewed at the 2008 Jamaican Film Festival in Kingston it was received with a standing ovation. Seeing it now revealed fresh insights. It played like a new film. A little put off by unfortunate post production dubbing from Jamacian patois in the print viewed. Story is driven by sheer energy. The actor, Countryman, is the real deal and he holds magical interest when on screen. We understand that a sequel is in the works. This film is a must see for lovers of Jamaica and it's music. Hat's off to its creator, Dickie Jobson.
