  For someone who has always found love in the arms of younger men, I can totally relate to this movie and I enjoyed every bit of it. On a serious note, younger men love the sweetest. As long as he doesn't see the age as a barrier, he expects you not to either. And when you don't, trust me, it's going to be a sweet sail. I love love.  And I love this movie. It's not your regular predictable Harlequin Romance. It's reality!!! I give it 9/10.

  I often wonder why South Africa Wood (whatever name is called) is not rated like Nollywood. Like these people have banging storyline, sick actors who body their roles like mofedaku, they gave audience something to enjoy.  The acting is always top notch. There is no South African movie that I have seen that I don't rate 100/10. Is it  Baby Mamas?  Or Happiness is a Four Letter Word (before they ruined it with a second part). Or Seriously Single? The directors cast with their heart and not their head or private parts. They cast actors that can deliver and not actors that look good on camera. Take for instance the lady that played Brigadier in this movie (I am not beauty shaming) but if she was a Nigerian, trust me she no go smell Nollywood because she doesn't have the face. But in Nigeria, once you have the body and face, e finish, welcome to Nollywood. Anyway, the reason for the plenty talk is that this movie is sweeeeeeet! It is amazing. I really like it. It was un...

  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...

  See ehn, I always say that I am all for movies with intriguing opening scenes. Opening scenes that would want you longing to see the next scene and the next scene and the next. BOBS's opening is lively and dope. The movie was interesting that I forgot to watch for a review. Funke Akindele did well and over well with this movie. Compared to Obara'm, you can actually feel the emotions of every character in this movie. The suspense was top notch. I nearly shit my pants when the youth came to search the hide out where Femi Jacob was hiding. Directing was perfect.  Story line was beautiful. The way the theme built from comedy to something serious and emotional needs to be taught in film schools. I give it to Tobi Makinde. I can smell his directorial skills all over this movie. Overall, I'd give it a 100/10. This movie brought out all the emotions I could feel in me. This is what a good movie does to you! How hard is it for these people to make a perfect movie like this?!!! I c...

  I don't know if it's me, but everything just looked off at the beginning. Of course, I have a problem with Nancy playing a singing role, not with that her voice. It's high time Nollywood stop doing this "oh, let's cast so and so in this role because they will look good on screen". If it is a singing part, give it to a singing actress. Jeez. She was just bleating in my ears. Then the party scene, Everything just dey disorganized.  And what in the Bollywood is that choreographed dance in a club? This singing of lines is novel to Nollywood, and I understand but wo, the thing didn't enter ooo. What is that church scene? Jesus Christ! Light goes off, they run to put on the generator, the little girl start singing... What's the WOW element there?? At the burial, did they teach Nancy the song abi na their church song? Mchew. The choreography in this movie is not choreographying.  Miss me with all the song stuff. Asides that, maybe the movie would have been...

  I know I said I wasn't a fan of Rok movies, and that hasn't changed. But I watched this because it was a Royal Arts Academy's movie. Royal Arts Academy used to be oñe of the best movie houses in Nollywood but I don't know what changed. Regardless, they still have it and this movie shows that. Asides from the fact that sone scenes were overstretched and it began to look like an AMepic movie, I enjoyed it. Casting Frederick Leonard and Bimbo Ademoye as lead roles for this movie was a brilliant idea. I love their chemistry. So impressive. I am not even sure Peggy and Fred can have this kinda chemistry on set. 🤣🤣 I love Bimbo when she is not clowning her character too much. She didn't clown her tomboy character too much in this movie, and that made watching her interesting. The story line was a bit common and predictable. The other cast made me roll my eyes plenty times. The sound was terrible too, had to strain my ears to listen to their convos. Overall, I give it ...

When you were asked about your swollen right eye, you said you sleepwalked and hit your face against the wall. We all said sorry and asked you to get well soon. A few days after, it was your chin that was shifted to the side. In response, you blamed it again in your clumsiness and that you feel off the bed. You are a grown woman in her late 30's. This time, we had questions that we couldn't dare to ask you. Weeks later, you were limping and you assured us that it was your clumsiness that made you fall down the stairs. At this point, we faced our business and wished you all the best. 2 months later, you're lying in a golden casket, 6 feet under the ground.  The autopsy read that you died from a deep gash on your forehead, probably a hit from the bloody plank of wood that was found beside your corpse. At this point, you want to talk. You wanted to say it all. But it's too late. Your husband claimed you hit your head on the plank, and we all believed him because you told u...

  This review is also by demand. First off, the chemistry between that Rahama babe and Ibrahim Suleiman wasn't chemistryimg jare. It looks so forced. Then the scene where they were traveling and we attacked by guns men, like how in God's name is it possible for the security dude to stand and watch? Like how? Survival instincts tells you to hide immediately. Oga still stood to watch as per na movie na. Mchew. Ose Lara Croft, you were hit with a gun in your stomach, you fainted, woke up and stood like nothing happened. Ose!!!! Iron woman. Mchew. So, minutes later when Sophia joins her, she is still well dressed. You people should try and be making these movies relatable. Your husband has been abducted, yet your gele still dey, your jewelry still intact, make up is still looking on point. Seriously, Sophia didn't handle that bedroom scene where Rahama was on call with the kidnappers. Couldn't she read the room? I felt like slapping her to shut up. The director messed up wi...

I am not a fan of Rok movies. Never have and never would be. No offense to Mary Njoku and get team but they produce boogie mediocre movies, with nice storylines and poor directing. But I am doing this review  because a good friend asked me to. So, here it goes; I love the opening scene. I am a sucker for amazing opening scenes, and I love this one. Hol up!!! I dey begin dey vex ooo. What's with that annoying grandma voice in scene 2?  Na, I won't take this archaic old people talking sound. It's annoying.  Old people talk well. Jeez. Okay, she is panicking, but why the exaggerated long coughing like someone who is asthmatic. You can have a panic attack and not be like this.  So, you want to tell me that nothing happened to that card since all of those years? No now. Not even a tear. No discoloration. No bending. Cockroach didn't pee on it. Haba now.... After all those years. Back to the grandma. Was she always that old? She was the same from the flashback scene and th...

  Tiger, Poison, Snake, what's all that? (rolls eyes a gazillion times) I can't with movies with plenty sub plots. It is annoying. This movie just has scattered written all over it. Why is Zubby repeating lines from another movie? "Even if una no get respect, una suppose get fear now". Said it in Passport and now here. Please. An actor should be dynamic not static.  Actually, the face off scene was nice, but there is no reason it should be turned into a full episode. 🤣🤣🤣 There was a continuity problem when Debo died. That take where Tiger held Nosa rex happened twice. One with toothpick in tiger's mouth, the other without. Nollywood Continuity, no Kee us now 🤣🤣🤣 Kelechi Udegbe did well. His Yoruba sweet me. Adeoluwa Akintoba (Debo) did well  too. I saw him in Sista too and he is good. Tacha played her part well even though she still needs training. Overall, it's a beautiful story line. The directing tried but some scenes were too long. At the beginning, ...

  When you hear someone say this movie is "that" movie, Air is "that" movie for me. Yes, I agree that the begining was laid back, but as a movie buff who knows the difference between laid back and lazy in movie production, I'd say the laid back opening of this movie is not lazy at all. For your sake, you need to follow the laid back opening up until the drama really started. For a movie that is a biography, this movie did a lot, it educated me, it entertained me and inspired me. Do you know that after watching the movie, I am on Google searching everything about the legend Michael Jordan. I am even sure that a lot of you talk "Air Jordan" shoes without knowing how it came to live. Trust me, even if you read anything about him and his start in his basketball career, it can't beat watching it come live on the TV. This movie is phenomenal "in Charles Okocha's voice". The casting was on point. I couldn't think of anyone playing Delori...

  The opening was great. Jim Iyke was killing it. But those two friends of his are just not it for me. That Mighty girl should tone down her nonsense agbero acting. It's annoying to watch. Then, what is with the dragging of scenes. I am getting bored at the meeting scene. Zubby doesn't do it for me, Sha. I dunno about you people oooooo. This movie has no business getting in the cinema in the first place. It should have stayed at that Alaba movies category. What's with Mercy Johnson and the  the insistent mention of Davido. The writer should be flogged. Dafuq Everything about this movie no follow.  Omoooorrrr, that movie is God forbid. I rate it 1/10
