I saw it over on the IMAX screen. There is much they could have done better...some of the cinematography, some little details that irked me...but it was definitely worth watching. It's a true Trini bacchanal story and the puppet work is very good. Looking forward to more local talent hitting the big screen. I'm Santana demonstrates quite clearly that we can do it.
I can't help but wonder if it would be viable to run I'm Santana regionally, up the islands...

Question for anyone who has seen it:
how much cussing is in the movie?
It have men who fasting and wondering if it is okay to watch.
Yuh fasting BW? For shiv ratri? If yuh fasting yuh can't hear cuss?
so much violence
..I seriously don't care..

It does have its share of violence.
BW, it has its share of strong language. It's rated PG but personally I would have put it more as PG-13 or something.

I ent sure if i want to see it. The first Youtube vid was bess, as was the Pastor one. But it too violent, and ent healthy.
And the BMobile ad is good too...
