Review of Aloevera

Aloevera (2020)
7/10
Amélie-style feelgood rom-com from Ghallywood
15 April 2023
My first Ghallywood movie.

Romeo & Juliet set in Ghana, minus the melodrama and the tragedy.

A lighhearted feelgood comedy, with a simple storyline and a predictable outcome. In a town divided into two opposing groups, a man and woman from opposite sides fall for each other.

The script is a bit childish and naive at times, but it is funny and lighthearted. I liked the yellow and blue sets, clothes and everyday objects. It reminded me of a mix between Wes Anderson and Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Amélie.

If you're feeling blue or yellow, this is a good way to spend 106 minutes and end the day with a smile.
