Though the lackadaisical style becomes tiresome after a while, the film is ultimately held together by star-in- the-making Adebimpe.

Even if the production is pretty small and the story pretty thin, I liked it. Not really a news for me: I love indie, quirky film with peculiar characters. I have to admit that the movie starts to shake a bit thought the end because of the lack of a more elaborate story, still the movie comes out as a winner. The goods songs helped too!

I wanted to see this movie after I saw Jorge, the short it was based on. This is such a cute, quirky movie!

This movie was good, and different too. A romantic comedy about George, who is set (by his family) to be married to fellow Nigerian family friend but falls in love with a Spanish woman he randomly meets at the airport. Their lives seem to synchronize as George and his newfound French-pal (Girardot), make their way to George's looming wedding. and they get more than one chance at discovering their true feelings for each other despite the expectations of others. Check this one out, its a good laugh.

My kind of funny--off-beat, quirky, refreshing. After a year or two I will be able to forgive my son and friends for not liking it...

A quirky, character-driven comedy that completely blew beyond what I expected. There is a certain Napolean Dynamite quality to this film, so if you dig that vibe, all the better! Just add this to your Netflix queue and enjoy it soon... :-)
