Yes we can

About This Movie

So, 'Yes We Can' is this offbeat comedy from 2012 that dives into a rather ridiculous premise. You've got these bumbling crooks in Kenya who come up with a plan to kidnap the President's grandmother—an intriguing angle, for sure. The way they call her 'Obamama' adds this layer of absurdity that's hard to ignore. The pacing feels a bit uneven, with moments of genuine humor interspersed with some slower bits, but it kind of works in its own quirky way. The performances are a mixed bag, but there's a charm in how the characters are portrayed. It’s not about the high stakes, but rather this oddball journey of misfits navigating their own incompetence amidst the backdrop of political satire.

Amateurish charm in performances · Quirky premise with absurd humor · Some uneven pacing but still engaging
