Living in Bondage:Breaking Free (2019): 4/10. I tried to indulge my self with this flick after years of nollywood neglect and I was disappointed to say the least. This was uncalled for and no where near the quality of the first part and to think this was a century ahead of the later. The story was so bland and incoherent, and the acting was medicore especially from the lead female, how are you choosing Muna as a lead actress in what was suppose to be the biggest movie from nollywood in recent times (guessing this is her first movie, If not she can't act to save her life) and how is this ritual narrative still a plot in nollywood this era when they are so much more to make movies about.

Nollywood is still at "we don try small small" stage for far too long.. When are we actually going to try big and make proper movies? Pathetic!

It had ritual narrative? i thought we had gone past that in the industry. That's like going back to the Stone ages. It's been donkey years i saw the first movie, I'd probably see it before this new one.

DrDax:



What else if not RITUAL?

How do you expect a sequel to Living In Bondage to be? Romance? Kung-fu?

Did you ever REALLY watch the original?

My Wife & I(2017)-8/10
Quite enjoyed this..
Helped by the two leads Ramsey and Omoni Oboli... The chemistry between them two was just perfect
This is definitely one of the best nollywood movies I've seen in recent times..

But I've noticed nollywood child actors are mostly terrible... Jeez
Compared to Hollywood where you will see a kid of 4 years who is very smart...
Nollywood really needs to do something about to this....
Surely there are smart kids in Nigeria too
From their facial expressions to their speaking.... Terrible

DrDax:


Hollywood has a system and infrastructure.

The Nollywood kid is most likely the director's child or a producer's nephew.

Hollywood teaches, Nollywood uses.

Hollywood has a pipeline, while Nollywood just kidnaps a good looking kid from their cradle.

End.

Isoken...6/10
Genre: Romance, Comedy
Industry:Nollywood


Isoken graces us with that nostalgia of being black & African. The African culture, dressing, colours, music, wedding rites etc were well dramatized, so much so, that you just had to be proud of your black pigmentation.

Though not entirely original, cause I've seen similar concept somewhere, but it sure did pull it off plot wise, all thanks to creative copying. Excellent acting from the cast, nice cinematography & spot on directing.

The predictability was actually a cog in the wheel of progress, of what would have been a perfect Nollywood flick.

With flicks like this, there's really hope for our industry.

Born2Freak:


Stop the village man sentiment. There is no hope for Nigerian movie industry.

Unless we invest in theatres, film and acting schools and video technology (video editing, graphic design, sound engineering etc)

And curb piracy

Karleb:


There's no way you can curb vices like piracy and plagiarism.

What Nigeria needs to do is open cinemas all over just like developed countries do, make your money off your movie as soon as it is released and lock up.

Majority of the books and movies we download for free are not free, some of them are in fact very expensive.

seankafor:
ritual narrative can still be classified as fantasy so as it's sci fi counterpart in Hollywood

Talk about the positive bro.. the acting was top notch.. the cinematography was also on point.
Atleast it showcased some advanced part of the country unlike those that showcase bushes and swam cinematography.

Lol, you no wan spend money for Cinema watch naija film by supporting producers with funds but you wan enjoy CGI with millions of dollars worth and better story.

Also stop Alaba piracy. Without proper investments you will continue getting what you see and hate.

oyaskii:
it's been far too long for a sequel bro. They could have utilize the props for other projects and dead this ritual narrative.

Bro the last 9ja movie I saw at the cinema had me in tears because of my wasted funds....Netflix is here so there is a wider global reach now, so the producers should take a leap and do something good... I am not even calling for CGI and VFX....indie movies without VFX but with proper story line and top notch acting dey always bang.
