RELOADED


Cast: Ramsey Nouah,Desmond Elliot,Rita Dominic,Stephanie Okereke,Ini Edo,Van Vicker

Overview: This one is about a narrator who takes her viewers into the lives of three other women who have to deal with their various men in different ways due to the way they(the women) have been treated by these men. The narrator herself who thinks she has the perfect man,got a shocker at the end of it all. Want to know, then watch it to find out.

Ratings
Good: As for me, I quite liked the twists at the end of it. Each woman featured had her own problems and dealt with it very well. Stephanie's part as the scorned woman worked and she proved herself. Ini Edo's revenge on her husband was believable. All in all, each actor and actress brought his or her own uniqueness into the movie.
Bad: After all the hype surrounding this movie and its release, I found it quite dissappointing as I expected something more mind- blowing;I mean movies directed by Emem Isong are usually mind-blowing. Rita's role as the reporter was flat;I'm sorry but there was no life in her character. Sorry to say, but Kate Henshaw's role as the narrator in Games Men Play was far much better than this one that Rita Dominic strived so hard to do without success. Please the soundtrack sounded as if someone was howling in pain what the hell was that all about. Whoever was in charge of that should have at least put in some more effort now haba!!!! Lastly, Stephanie please enough with the accent it only makes you sound wierd it is better if you speak normal English ok!! we know that you studied English in the university.

TUFACE-ENTER THE PLACE

Listen, I'm no hater or anything as such,but why the hell was Tuface and Sound Sultan screaming "Enter the place" as if they wanted listeners and viewers to take notice, as if their lives depended on it. Well I certainly did take notice and the song annoyingly keeps ringing in my head. In fairness though they tried with the production but please whose car was the red one I saw in that video with the number plate "G-BANKS" na wa o. Tubaba abeg next time try putting your own name on the number plate if not for anything but "effizy" effects you hear. Except the "G-BANKS" is one of your names which we are yet to know.

Tomorrow Must Wait

Cast: Omotola Jalade, Nadia Buari, Nonso Diobi, Rukky Sanda

Overview: This is about a girl who does all she can to help her poor boyfriend graduate from university and she actually goes to extreme measures but maybe it does really happen but you'll have to watch it to figure it out. The boy graduates quite alright but then after graduation,getting into the real world,he discovers that it's a whole new ball game,and whatever he decides to do will affect his girlfriend. In a good or bad way, find out.

Ratings
Good: Omotola and Nadia both played their parts well,and I'm sure Nonso Diobi must be thanking his stars because he gets to work with both actresses hmmm, something to add to his acting CV definitely. Rukky also played her part properly as the roommate who takes advantage at any given opportunity.
Bad: Well, I might be wrong but I think that it is high time Omotola stopped accepting undergraduate roles because she is getting too old for them and it is becoming pretty obvious. Also,I wonder why it takes ages to release sequels. We are still waiting for this one o; because it is annoying to watch a movie and then wait for such a long time for the sequel and then you end up forgetting what it was all about.

NOTE TO NOLLYWOOD COSTUMIERS/WARDROBE PEOPLE

Please,please,please!!! stop giving castoffs of the lead actresses to their sidekicks now. At least someone should be able to speak for them if they can't speak for themselves. Abi,how far now? Evidence of such are obvious in the following movies........ Yankee Girls,Gameboy,World of Tears and so on.

Doyin Owobamirin

Cast: Funke Akindele, Odunlade Adekola
In this movie,Odunlade kills his fiancee, and the spirit of the dead would not let him rest,wanting him to pay with whatever he has including his new fiancee.

Rating
Good: This movie is a typical Yoruba one but has a good twist and also both actor and actress did put in a good performance as expected of them. Funke Akindele did well as the aggrieved fiancee who tried to figure out everything that was going on around her.
Bad: As usual, we have the "juju" but this one was overly fetish. The picture quality was nothing to write home about and please what was with the insults in English; in one scene, Funke was trying to insult her gateman or whoever he was and she said "callywag" rather than "scallywag". People!!! if you are not confident about your English then don't say it. Although I must say that i expected more from Funke. But still it could have been a slip of tongue that was done on purpose. Either way we still love you Funke keep up the good work.

Pointless!!!

Lol!! it's not necessary in this blog, but we have named this section Pointless. This is our first one. I-Go-Dye in a bow tie. This Warri- born comedian is showing his diversity but come on I-Go-Dye Na Wetin?. To the necklace to the Waist coat under the jacket. His neck then looks really long with the gigantuous bow tie. Still love you though. LMAO!!. 
Ps stick to normal suits.

Love My Way


Cast: Genevive Nnaji, Jim Iyke, Tonto Dike,
Kayleen and Kayla are two different girls with different personalities. Jim Iyke is a guy looking for the perfect wife however his current woman is not the ideal partner, even though he tries to make her into what he wants her to be all to no avail but an unfortunate incident turns everything around.

Rating
Good:Genevive plays a twin wonderfully, again seeing that she has done this a couple of times. Jim iyke plays a good guy well (finally!) and i love the plot of this movie. Watch out for this actress Tonto and she is not only hot but a very good actress. I couldn't stop looking at her hair (sorry about that). The guy that plays the doctor is also very good and i remember him in Doctors Quarters. All four acted very well, giving a good performance.
Bad:Side Kicks again!!!!, why are all the side kicks really annoying. Genevive's side kick was the most disgusting person ever. Not only couldn't speak proper english but i couldn't stop staring at the huge gap in her teeth and her makeup. The Jim Iyke really needs to stop adding the letter L to his English! i mean why is he saying "lets gol" ITS GO!! NOT GOL!! please i know ure trying to speak like a whit person but im sure they don't add unnecessary consonants.
