40 Sticks

The ending was great. Didn't see that coming. A great effort. Got me at the edge of the seat. Few issues but all productions have a few issues. Africa has stories to tell.

It took me a while to figure out the matchbox angle. Had an amazing twist at the end. Not easy shooting in a small space. They did so well.

So is it worth spending the one hour plus watching this movie? The simple.answer yes.

First of I was a bit impressed with the movie quality... The story line was also good.

My.lnly complaint is that there was missing a connection between me and the characters. I did.not really care for any of them. I did not care of they survived or not I just wanted to know the killer.

Maybe they could give us a deeper story where I would.be rooting for one of them.to survive.

Kenyans have made a real effort here, it's nice to see our stuff out there in the world. I'm sure that our main issue is a lack of budget and good training. I was able to make it to the end of the movie which doesn't happen with most netflix movies for me. I mean some things made no sense but we'll just let it slide for now as Kenya continues doing better for itself. I don't even watch any horror movies and this one didn't make me squirm(which is actually a good thing for me.) We still have a long way to go and I hope that we make it there to sell our talent to the world. We have great actors here. Otherwise it was a good effort.

I live in Montreal Canada and I like to try independent movies from different countries. I like to look beyond Hollywood and other Western films which I admit I do enjoy as well. I have to say this movie keep my interest.

The acting was decent, good to very good, depending on the actor. The characters they played were all different and I found the mix to be interesting. I really enjoyed the gang members, especially Mustafa and Biggie (Biggie's eyes in the movie alone were a real treat. He reminded me of Marty Feldman but with a more sinister look. That alone was a treat lol.

Overall you can just run with this movie and have fun. The script had a few small weak moments but nothing that threw me out of the movie. I loved the ending and didn't see it coming so that surprise was a big plus.

Great effort and it's nice to see Kenya producing a quality production. Congratulations to everyone involved in the making of this film! You can be proud of your effort. Thank you because as I was entertained.
