Ile Owo Movie Review

 





Ile Owo is out on Netflix and everyone wants to see it. Before you do, read this article first.


So, for a movie to try and bring in elements of the metaphysical so strong and scary into a movie in this age and time, I give it to this movie. It got me scared.


The props didn't help matters. Darthcoal needs to pay the props guy some more.



Directing was not balanced. Great in some scenes, annoying in others.


I have been wanting to see Darthcoal's movies for a while, and this didn't do justice for me.


The theme/storyline is quite nice. Very nice... The execution wasn't great.


The dialogue too was not up to par. So many missing lines.


Let's talk about acting now.


Give Kiekie her flowers anyday everyday. Her wittiness is top notch. 


The Busola character is so annoying. She is a terrible actor. She preempted the entire movie.


It was like she couldn't care how she acted in the initial scenes, as she didn't see them as intense as the last few scenes.


So, she just did it anyhow she wanted. 


This is the first time I loved Efe Iwara laid back acting. He actually gave oko Orun vibes 🤣🤣🤣



I still feel Mofe Duncan is not giving his all to acting. He is a good actor but he is very laid back too.


Also, It's very short.. annoyingly short. The extra scenes were needed to perfect it.


Overall, it's an okay movie.

Sista Movie Review

  The opening scene did me in. I read somewhere that the first few 5 minutes of a movie determines if it is worth it.  Trust me, Sista movie hooked me in less than 5 minutes. I loved the straight to the point opening. No show of the Third Mainland Bridge. No lazy show of Lagos traffic. Nothing. Also, the past/present sequence made crazy sense.  Seeing Kehinde Bankole in that role is refreshing, it's not what she is used to, but she did well. Chimezie was quite not in character, or maybe he didn't bond with Ade Herself. I don't know. He is better than what I saw him act here. As usual Aunty Ronke Oshodi Oke gave it her all. This Tope Owokoniran babe tried with her Hausa accent. I love it!!! I think this is the best of her I have seen so far. I'd say this is a movie Aunty Biodun Stephen put her everything to make. This is a beautiful work of art. I love every piece of it. The story line is dope. Directing is flawless. The fun part was that even though It was predictable f...

Ijakumo Movie Review

  Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give.  Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words???  I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water. If they had said or showed that they picked the Ugandan girl because she looked like the Nigerian girl in his church, e for make perfect sense. Seriously, I am miffed. The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...

The Black Book Movie Review

  Chaos is what you get when you try to film movies like Hollywood without doing your homework well.  That kidnapping scene is one of the most chaotic and unorganized crime scenes ever. Like WTH!! Moving on, we have RMD and Olumide bonding that didn't give the vibes they were gunning for. Then the scene where Sam Dede called Bimbo Akintola on the phone asking who he should kill. Please what's the job of the two police men that were present at the scene? What's their work? Are they aesthetics? I expected them to go close to her immediately they realized she was communicating with the kidnappers. No, they stood like they were visitors checking family album. Mchew. It was after the conversation has ended that the soldier guy came to stand in front of her - like a mannequin.  Another thing, choice of soundtrack was shitty. What's "omo mi Seun rere" doing in that beach scene. I am rolling my eyes. All those half half conversations that were flying up and down, na r...
