It was really a good movie with that money. But who the hell killed Captain Alex?

The greatest movie I have ever watched, period. I’ve seen countless movies in my life before, but no one has ever managed to capture the soul, energy and even the overall beauty of “Who Killed Captain Alex” At first you’d enjoy it for shits and giggles but really it’s quite a deep movie with an intriguing story, great choreography backed by a great, passionate team in Uganda. “Who Killed Captain Alex” alone is a masterclass in action, comedy and drama, from the Video Joker’s hilarious commentary, to the enticing and powerful action scenes, and to even some of the shocking moments; It is simply the gold standard for cinema, no exceptions whatsoever. And the fact that the Oscars didn’t even give this legendary classic any kind of recognition is an absolute crime to humanity; because this movie alone dwarfs ANY and all critically acclaimed Hollywood directors: Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, you name it. And so, to anybody who has been considering giving this movie a shot, I HIGHLY recommend it, plus, it’s free on YouTube so if you have the time please give this fine masterpiece of Ugandan cinema a shot.

Quite good in regards to what they achieved with next to nothing.  The action was entertaining, the narration comical.  However, the story was lost on me so the non action parts were a bit bland.

Honestly kinda surprised they managed to make this with just $200. I guess the actors were all volunteers and the effects free plugins, but it looks more in the range of $1000 - $1500 at least.

I saw it for the memes and wasn''t disappointed. The movie itself is pretty bad

Utterly hilarious movie for a 200$ budget production. 2/10 for the cinematography ’n'' stuff, 10/10 for the fun.
