      David Opie Little White Lies A love letter to the power of escapism, a devastating portrayal of grief and a Kenyan family drama that defies stereotypes, Supa Modo serves as an important reminder that even when heroes die, they can continue to inspire others long after they're gone. Jun 19, 2018 Full Review Brent McKnight Seattle Times I'm glad movie theaters are dark because I ugly-cried my way through all 74 minutes of "Supa Modo." I straight-up bawled my eyes out. Rated: 4/4 Jun 19, 2018 Full Review Javier Cortijo Cinemanía (Spain) Pretty but too amateurish. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 7, 2020 Full Review Katie Hogan VultureHound Seeing the completed film at the end, complete with a fantastic VJing performance, not a gimmick but a common way to watch films in Kenya, you feel uplifted and hope that Supa Modo lives on! Rated: 5/5 Feb 3, 2020 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha Slashfilm Supa Modo is a delicate film, one that even manages to be joyful at times. Aug 7, 2019 Full Review Grethe Kemp City Press (South Africa) The film is buoyed by the effervescence of young actress Waweru and a story that will leave your heart glowing long after you've watched it. Warning: you might also shed a few tears by the end. Rated: 4/5 May 14, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
