Great acting and love story

Loved. Loved this film. It's so refreshing to see wonderful love stories coming out of Africa. I am now searching for these actors in other movies.

I really wanted to like it...

The two main characters were excellent. The over-the-top writing for the mother, pushy investor, idiot front desk clerk, drunk chef, strange celebrity person and crew...ugh... Just too much. I fast-forwarded through most of the movie except where the main characters interacted. This could have been so much better.

A odd film

This was so bad that it was good. Everything about it felt pretty poor, except the soundtrack wasn't actually that bad. With some films that are quite lack lustre, I struggle to watch it so end up turning it off. With this one I actually managed to sit through it until the end. If you're bored and want something cheesy and alternative to watch, it's worth a look in. If you're a real film snob then this isn't for you.

Cute

A cute romcom no doubt. Obviously low budget, the acting wasn't great from some of the cast, and I could have done without some of the scenes. However, the movie worked well with what it had and didn't try too hard. Great soundtrack.
