Top Critics Reviews

I admired the movie and was happy to see it but can think of two other films about whites in Africa that do a better job of seeing their roles.

rotten:
Watching it is like trying to assemble a puzzle that's missing pieces: You can see the outline of a story, and some shapes fit neatly together, but there are undeniable holes.

Deftly balancing the end of British colonialism in Africa against a family's painful disintegration, Wah-Wah marks the impressive directing debut of Richard E. Grant.

The actors give it a spark, and Grant directs his fine cast with sureness.
