      It's a matter of perspective. For our generation, Henry Cele IS Shaka. Period.
      But for our children and grand-children who may see Shaka iLembe as the first rendition of Shaka on screen, they can be allowed to have a different opinion.

      @alphonse-josephdegbahou2906 They can have any opinion they want just like with everything else but I suggest they go back and look at the original and not just with this movie but research the real history alot of these kids watch a few seconds of something and then want to comment and don't really know what they are talking about so like I always say research everything and study the culture it's something that everyone should be doing generation shouldn't matter when I grew up I had to look at and study everything and I'm glad I did salute to you

      I'm not saying you're wrong. I say that our kids "who haven't seen the first Shaka Zulu mini-series" might say the same thing about the actor who played Shaka in Shaka iLembe.
