Full reviewEven if his film is only partially autobiographical, it is amazing that Grant is making movies and not lace doilies in a long-term psychiatric care facility. To label the parents in "Wah-Wah" dysfunctional doesn't adequately describe their wildly inappropriate behavior... Such high drama should be far more compelling to watch than the lackluster "Wah-Wah." The characters may be based on real people, but they fail to spring to life onscreen. As a result, their histrionics often are laughable, like the over-the-top shenanigans in a Douglas Sirk melodrama...
Full reviewGrant proves an excellent, unshowy director and the characters are so strikingly individual and plausible that it's impossible not to be drawn in...
Full reviewThe story lacks focus. The senses blur as wives and ex-wives come and go, and Harry regularly falls off the wagon, only to reform the next day...
Full reviewBoth acidly funny and very moving... A wry and involving film, "Wah-Wah" is clearly a labor of love for both Grant and his cast. Grant opens up his life, not with embarrassment or explanation but with humanity and gratitude. Emotional, melodramatic and sentimental, the film unabashedly wears its heart on its sleeve, and is the better for it...
Full reviewAn unforced, engaging and surprisingly incisive account of the disintegration of British rule in Africa....
Full reviewOn this evidence, Grant has great skill with actors and sharp eye with a camera. Let's hope his next film tackles a more interesting topic...
