Review of Mission To Nowhere

“So how do you identify "a thickset man with a baritone voice" in a company's personnel list? Did they have to say Mrs or Miss Adams one million times. I guess they forgot how to use pronouns. And the Aba-made shirts Rogers kept wearing. Urg! The colours are awlful. The forensics scenes are plain wack unless flashing scanned finger prints on a computer screen is forensics in the Naija stylee. I beg the movie no try jare. The dialogue gets tiring. I woulld say though that the story succeeds in keeping viewers guessing about who the killer is.”

“Enousa i really dont know where to begin in response to your baseless rantings. You sound like one of those people that can never be satisfied, you know, card-carrying complainers. One reason i would warn everyone not to judge the movie based of your comments is that you do not even mention any positive aspects of the movie. I am thinking that the real issue might be that you are uncomfortable with the way gender war is been represented. We have shouted and gone hoarse over how Naija movies present women in disturbing ways, how women are either pretty housewives sitting at home, evil damsels in search of men's money, or devilish mother-inlaws. this movie is clearly different because it shows men and women negotiating cultural assumptions about their roles on an "equal" playing field. I am not saying that some of the movie's representations of gender relationship are not problematic; i am just saying that the movie does make a conscious attempt to push boundaries. My friend, the subject of the movie might be light, but we all know that it is possible to say important things in the lightest of moods or through movies you call "childish pranks." You've got to be kidding to say that the acting was not good. That is how i know that your strong dislike for the movie is probably coming from somewhere else. I stand by my word that the acting is very good. Think of the scene where the BP power group first met. I was impressed at the way they did not over-act and how their little narratives were presented realistically. Just to let you know good drama are not only those that "shock and enlighten." It is still possible to make people laugh or relax and enlighten them at the same time. This is me responding to Enousa. Let me review the movie. I recommend it definitely. It still has some of the basic issues with nollywood movies like scenes going on for too long and the part two stuff (the movie ended rather abruptly). Also, i think the sound could have been better. But in general, i think that the story is fresh. The editting was quite okay. Just relax and enjoy the movie.”

Review of Buy Me A Rose 2

“Within the context of Naija movies, the movie is really good. i particularly like the way different ethnicities are included. The scene with the benin mother and igbo dad was pretty cool. I get sick of Dakore's antics, but she was not bad in this movie. Ramsey should be careful o. Im face don begin fat small small. The writing was not bad at all for a nollywood movie. I like Dakore's pun on "class differences." What else is there to say? The picture quality is good and exceptionally good in some places. Even though i would say that you should not get your hopes too high, this is still a movie you should see. I like it.”

“If you're not expecting too much from a Nigerian movie and you have some extra time to spare, why not?
Now a days, I praise Naija flicks more for the picture and sound quality than for story or acting.”

“Na wa o. So there are people who would actually wait for the Part Three of a movie! Hmm. It is audiences like you that make Nollywood complacent in their mediocrity.”
