So boring a film

dfrost:
I love this. Time to reinvent the wheel. We need to sell our history, culture to the world albeit with less emphasis on the diabolical aspect.

malali:
Ifeanyi Adeleke was autistic.
His death reeks of orchestration.
Societal stigma of rich wealthy people having autistic children should be softened.

I just finished watching the movie.
Two things that didn't go well.

1. When Elesin Oba was in detention, he spoke Yoruba to the white man. The white man responded in English. There was no interpreter.
Did the Traditional Yoruba chiefs who did not have western education understand English?
Did the White men who came to Yorubaland during that time understand Yoruba?

2. Just before Elesin climbed the table to hang himself with the chains on his hands, the white and his guards saw him.
He climbed, wrapped the chain around his neck, pushed the table down and the white man and his guards were still struggling to open the cell lock.
Meanwhile, when Iyaloja arrived, it took the white man less than 5 seconds to open the lock.
Even if it took that long to open the lock, the time was too short for Elesin to have died.

Nice storyline... They'll did great. .. I love the camera picture though...

JoshTim:
I prefer agensinkole to Anikulapo and agensin ọba.

Heterodox:
Diabolical is Africa.

That's the culture. Without it the black man is nothing.

CEOKmotors:



Una don come again.

Many Kids died from flood few weeks ago, but hypocritical Nigerians said nothing... Coz the child's father is rich and famous, y'all chasing clout with the child.

Let the boy rest in God, please!

The emotional display of Odunlade and the white couple in the last scenes where the Elesin Oba's foreign trained son died were too fakery, not convincing enough.

Moreover, the characters in the book itself and its emotional contents by Wole Soyinka are much more realistic than those displayed in the film.

So, I will give the film 6/10.

Also I noticed that sexual activities are now blatantly displayed in Yoruba films, like Anikulapo and this, and this is highly uncultural and disturbing.

Googledotcom:
Boring is an understatement. I spent most time fast forwarding the movie every single minute.

Gandah:
We already know how it ends...
It's always a happy end

marimarempress:
Igbos where are you? No historical films with all the rich culture?

Seriously, these guys are now producing movies that really worth it. The cultural revealing, the xcter exposures and the rich storylines are credit worthy.
The only 'but' is the sexual contents which is alien to Africa.

I mean this is a typical Yoruba home movie which kids can watch together with their parents at home. I know they are trying to make it more of international standard but it only diminish and ridicule its cultural richness. I rate them 8/10 though have not seen [b][/b]EleshinOba
