    Watched it last night (on Tubi). Hilarious!!! Thanks so much for this discovery. I’m going to try to find other Wakaliwood films.

    My log:

    Many spoilers
    • The high security enclosure for the money exchange… is made of cardboard.

    • Narrator: “I have a key.” Swaz smashes window with hammer. Narrator: “Ugandan key!” :D

    • How many Abba song titles is the narrator going to use?

    • OMG, this narration :D 🤣

    • SWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZ!

    • Swaz shoots cop up the arse. Narrator: “My bums!”

    • “I’m too old for this shit.”

    • Chase scene squeezing through narrow gaps in shanty town. Narrator: “The unfittables.”

    • After an absolutely insane pedal-to-the-metal opening 12 minutes, the orphan section really slows things down. But very soon “Ten years later”. Phew!

    • Man with eyes closed in chair. Narrator: “Is he dead?” Man rouses. “Oh, this is Uganda, I thought he’s dead.”

    • “Sluuuuuurp”

    • “How can you love this roach turd?”

    • Little kid to US doctor: “I can train you to be a commando.” SLAP! “First lesson.” :D
      Is that Wesley Snipes or ‘Buddy’ Spencer?

    • Shanty town boys chasing white doctor as part of his ‘commando’ training. Narrator: “Get the muzungu. Eat the muzungu. Cook him alive! He must be delicious.”

    • “This is ghetto. THIS IS GHETTO.”

    • “Mamma mia.” Another Abba song title.

    • Muzungu wants info on Big Black’s location from little girl. Her: “First, give me my sweets.” Narrator: “Ugandan women.”

    • Cop explaining plan: “My kung fu cops will surround them.”

    • “Predator’s half-Jamaican, you know.”

    • “Uganda’s first women in prison movie”, starring the female Bud Spencer! SLAP!

    • Supa criminal’s demands: “… And I want ‘24’ back on TV!”

    • “What a movie! Good thing it’s over.”

    • Character background? Narrator: “Booorrrriiing.” Fast forward.

      PS for a while there, Tubi in Mexico would only let me see films dubbed into Spanish. But looking around now (on the website at least, not sure yet in the Roku app), it’s a mix:

      • movies & TV shows dubbed into Spanish (with no option for original/English)
      • movies in English / original language
      • “Content unavailable” when you click on it (then why the hell are you pushing it at me???)
      • a few linear TV channels, like ION, ION Plus

          Sorry, I should have been clearer. It’s not a technical error message, but a media availability message.

          Tubi MX - content not available

          • Contenido no disponible = Content not available
          • Recuérdame - se te notificará por correo electrónico cuando esto esté dispnible - “Remind me: you’ll be notified by email when this is available”.

          Lots of other movies on Tubi play just fine in my browser (Zen, mod of Firefox). But 90% of the movies featured on the home page are “Content not available”.

            If I had to take a guess, I’d say it might be bc that movie is region-locked. That movie seems to be currently available in the US. So on the back-end they probably have one service that delivers the home page but doesn’t check for regional availability (poor design!), and only when the movie-specific page is accessed do they check for regional availability. But that’s just a hypothesis.

              Yeah that would be my guess, too. Poor design choices making the user experience very frustrating.
