I saw this come to Netflix, and saved it to my Watchlist. It's taken me this long to getting around to watching it properly! It appealed to me, with it being the first Ugandan film on the platform, its synopsis, and its run time

The movie gets straight to the point from the opening scene, with the main characters being introduced in very quick succession

Presented as a conversation taking place between two people (for the most part), this is almost a narration. That really works in its favour, as the connections between characters are explained, rather than having to be filmed and played out, which would detract from the twisting story being told

There are a couple of continuity errors, as well as some possible plot holes. However, what some may see as plot holes, I'd suggest are deliberate punctuations between the differing viewpoints of the characters, as each one tells us/shows us their perception of what actually happened

It's not as clean as it could be, but it is well edited and well directed - you can see what Ali is aiming for. Should his hard work and commitment garner recognition from experienced studios, he would flourish. I'd love to see him work with Blumhouse, for instance. It would also be great to see him on projects with established powerhouse directors such as Tarantino or Jonze

As a side note, I loved the use of cheap animation alongside an actor to explain certain points in the film. As well as the stamped 'True Story' tag! Haha. It's verisimilitude reportedly comes from myriad different new stories, crimes, etc. Having taken place in Uganda, as opposed to it actually being based on one event

A really enjoyable movie. I'm glad I gave it a go!

The movie is mainly about 2 men in a car where one of them is talking about what just has happened to him.

For those who like me, thought there were many mistakes in the beginning of the movie, it will all make sense in the end of the movie, I promise.

Tongue-in-cheek, feature length anecdote that never lets you forget it's ostensibly a true story. That excuses a few things I guess...

By turns, casual conversation and a dynamically expressed story of survival against our fellow human (always for the dumbest reasons) the usage of animation, pseudo-public service announcement and narration make this pretty memorable even if we ignore the viciousness that is left to speak for itself against the backdrop of just another day in Africa.

The tone of quietly simmering violence is ever-present and I could not explain what the message (if any) was ever meant to be.

Over all a pretty worthy choice for an appetite of casual violence.

Entertaining flick although while the guy was in captivity his right palm got nailed into chair but later when he sit in the car you can see he wrapped his left hand and right hand is fine. So obvious!

It is about a true story, but most of the movie is telling a false story. During a movie there is some narrator interupting to explain some expressions, which seemed like comercials in the middle of a movie.

Ending is very simple and nonrelated to whole movie, and not explaining what happened to main characters afterwards, like it is a case in all movies based on a true story. Therenare also some mistakes mentuoned earlier in reviews, if a guy loses a finger it showa up later in a movie, and talking to a mobile phone on one ear, then from other angle showing it on tanother ear even though the character did not move it at all.

I honestly really loved this film. You could never really know what's going to happen next. Its unpredictability was superb. The acting was spot-on, world-class editing and a nice story. I'm really glad it got to the international platform at netflix!

A really excellent film that is so UNDER-RATED. If you enjoy action/thriller movies, you'll love The Girl in the Yellow Jumper.

This film is as good as any Tarantino flick. I started watching this movie out of pure curiosity. It drew me in as it was riveting & full of interesting twists. A good watch.

This film blew me away. A bit of Tarantino, a bit of Rashomon, in an African setting. Excellent script and acting. Directing, editing - all solid. A must watch for 2021.

This is a great Movie ... This is an inspiration and Motivation to Ugandan Film Makers ....I Loved It... The beautiful scenes ,the storyline was unpredictable. I've rewatched it countless times and I highly recommend it.
