Madam Koi Koi Movie Review

I just finished seeing the first episode of this movie, and by Jove, I am going to watch it till the last scene.

I am thrilled.

I am impressed. In fact, super impressed.

The fact that it wasn't directed or produced by your usual A list movie people says a lot about this movie.

The producer is obviously concerned with making a real movie, telling a story in the most enjoyable way, and not about making Numbers or making money.

Except for when Inspector Oscar used the 2023 trending slang "if you don't get it, forget about it" in a 1991-set movie, I found no faults with the movie, yet.

As someone who attended a boarding school, I could relate with a lot of things happening in the movie.

In fact, the director did a good job, not by only using an actual boarding school, but making sure that the feel of it was evident everywhere. See the boy's hostel, very real.

That's what I am talking about!!!

Casting is beautiful. Except for that Lashe character. I don't feel him. I don't like him. He is not bodying the role well.

Same for the Edna babe. I am not feeling her that well, especially in her line delivery.

Before I forget, let me state that I love how the director didn't work with "shiny" actors. He worked with "real" and "deep" actors and it showed in the result!

Asides that, all characters ate their roles.

Overall, it's a 99/100 for me.

This is what a horror movie should look like, not all these jokes Nollywood has been reeling out in the name of horror movies.

I am looking forward to the next episode.

King Of Swazi chooses Wife, Publicly Test Girls' Virginity As They Dance Naked. (Photos)

A common tradition in Swaziland (Swazi) permits the King, Mswati, to choose a new bride every year. This is done in a festival named Swazi Reed Dance Festival where girls are paraded and tested publicly to know their virginity status. It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...

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...

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...
