Who Killed Captain Alex? (2010), directed by Nabwana IGG, is a low-budget Ugandan action film that defies all expectations. The plot revolves around the murder of a military officer, Captain Alex, which sets off a chain of chaotic events involving corrupt officials, drug lords, and a group of commandos trying to solve the mystery. It’s an absurd blend of over-the-top action, hilarious dialogue, and unintentional comedy, held together by an infectious passion for filmmaking. Made on a shoestring budget, the film’s special effects are clumsy at best, but that’s part of the charm. Explosions, gunfights, and martial arts combat are all presented with wild enthusiasm, making each scene feel like a wild ride. The acting is intentionally overblown, with villains like "Black" delivering their lines with such exaggerated gusto that it adds to the fun. The film’s biggest asset, however, is the narrator. His enthusiastic commentary — full of spontaneous outbursts and cheeky observations — elevates the film to a new level of entertainment. Though the technical aspects are rough around the edges, there’s an undeniable sense of heart and creativity in every frame. The action is clumsy yet thrilling, and the absurdity of the plot and special effects only add to the movie’s charm. Who Killed Captain Alex? has become a cult favorite for those who love movies that embrace their imperfections and go all-in on their wildest ideas. It's not a "good" movie in the traditional sense, but it's one you won’t forget.
