Is igbo language part of the minority

The minority in question is Ijaw language.

Igbo was only spoken in 2 scenes, it was not the main language used

Can it be watched with kids?

Unlikely.

There are a couple of scenes with nudity and such, so, unless they won't be present for them....

The beginning scene, and the scene where Oyin is speaking about the Igbo landing, and then there is a sex scene.

So, it's not quite children-friendly

I watched a Nigerian movie yesterday smtn I rarely do and I found the move kinda interesting and the storyline quite good and better than what I usually see from Nollywood. The Acting was equally ok bt as a natural core critic is saw a few areas for Improvement in the way some of the scenes where shot.

The movie is called marriage interview.

That's the movie with Eddie Watson and Uche Montana. It's on YouTube, Ruth Kadiri's channel, yes?

It was a nice movie, I agree.

Movie is 4.5/10 to me because the lead guy looks like a baby who just crossed through puberty, having him square off against that Russian bad guy who played his role perfectly didn't make sense to me.. not realistic

Why didn't they get someone who can play the lover boy and tough boy role and would easily fit into both roles without looking out of place.

BTW, the girl in the movie is really pretty, she should grace our screens alot more. As for that adolescent lover boy this should be his last movie.


I just hated the guy, his looks, his role, come match him and that fine girl...dem no match at all. Plus you come thief person daughter for house, u no even see her dead body carry come back.

LOL.

This is not even a valid reason.

He looks the way a young boy is supposed to look, except you expected him to look like the guy who played Boma.

Also, when he squared off with the main villain, he had to distract him to get the upper hand. He didn't face him head on, or he wouldn't have stood a chance.

I will rate it a 5 (that's being generous)
It reeks something that is unreal...
Klinge a soldier and one of the men caught(the father of the girl) told the soldiers, a boy is the leader of the gang and took the soldiers to his house... who does that?
During the voyage, una pass many countries come reach Cape Verde, dem shoot person throw aboard, bit he swim, survive and found his way to 9ja with an amputated leg...
The white trafficker put you for table to skin you, you ran... he started asking himself for like 3 mins in an enclosed space, "where is he?" Until gas abi na smoke cover he face...
Abeg, make we nor over hype this movie.
1) Who does what? Who lies to soldiers about the leader of a gang? A father who wanted to get rid of the boy distracting his daughter.

During the voyage, they threw Tekena off the ship, we see him holding on to something to keep him afloat. Did you see him swim to shore? No, so, why did you assume he swam to shore with a bad leg and not that he was simply found by another boat/ship and taken to shore? They shot him on the leg, so, he probably just amputated it when he got to Nigeria, which makes sense, considering the leg wound and passage of time.

If you even want to speak on the Cape Verde thing, a valid criticism would be how long did it take them to reach Cape Verde? And how come whatever small food they had on board lasted them that long before they reached there?

*The trafficker didn't ask where he was for 3 minutes, maybe a minute at most. And yes, that scene had some shortcomings, because we still didn't know what that gas was or why it had such an effect on the white guy, but not on Abbey who was unprotected as well. Y

Yes.

Re: Blood Vessel: Ratings And Review by Fxwarrior: 11:33am On Dec 15, 2023
You didn't put Francis Duru among the cast. He is the Oga P that gave them passage into the ship.

I rate the movie 7/10.

...And the boy set Pere, a captain, loose on the ship, and that was the last time we ever saw him (Pere) on the screen. Pere was so dumb and weak not to have realized the sufferings of these boys or even rendered a helping hand by taking down the villain.

Oh, Pere with his big muscles suddenly vanished from the movie after getting help, while the tiny adolescent actor went all out to take down armed men all by himself. God, abeg. cheesy cheesy

I ll just say you have responded quite well. He probably was expecting part/season 1-10 of the movie. He could ve found his way home in many ways.
Re: Blood Vessel: Ratings And Review by shumax: 10:10pm On Dec 16, 2023
watched it at the middle of the night too and didnt want it to end. Great movie
Re: Blood Vessel: Ratings And Review by FirstFirst: 12:01pm On Dec 22, 2023
Please tell me in what language was Oyins singing, and what language were she and her grandmother communicating. That doesn't sound like Ijaw to me. That scene is a drawback.

Most of the actors tried it is not their language.

But Francis Duru did a fantastic job in the mannerisms of the Ijaw man. Even me, an Ijaw cannot do it the way he did.
The elders at the end of the movie are Ijaw, I could hear everything they said without a sub-title

But a great movie. It deserves an AMVCA and AMAA award. This story has not been told in Nigeria before. Highly emotional. Please this is not Home Video. This is by all standards a movie to watch in a cinema
This movie, Black Book, and Shanty Town are my three best for this year.

It's a nice movie. It is sure an upgrade to his other movies: Nneka, the pretty serpent, Rattlesnake, Aki & Pawpaw. I felt it started pretty well but tailed off as the movie went. I know most movies are majorly fictions but I'd still like to watch something believable & much likely to happen.

How were they able to survive on the little they had till they got to Cape Verde which is close almost a month voyage from NGR seeing Mr P never brought them food. We could also have seen believable scenes of them choking & finding air to breathe from the stench that must have come from the bucket of faeces as the days roll by.

The scene that involved the fight between Abbey & Igor was absolute crap & very unbelievable. They almost ruined it all for me with that scene.
What happened to the captain of the ship after he got freed by Abbey? No closure on that.
Why would they make Abbey take on Igor alone & give us an unreal representation of that?✋

I particularly loved how Abbey went back to each of their families to give them money & the shock that followed suit.
I also love the use of Ijaw language as the main lingua for the movie, very different from the Yoruba/Igbo we are mostly used to.

It's a solid 6.5/10 for me.

But yoh I watched an interesting movie just couple hours ago: Breathe of life....a solid 9/10. You all should see that movie
