Top 10 Best Nollywood Movies You Watched 2012 by Nobody: 2:25pm On Dec 26, 2012 |
As I must have said before, I started watching nigerian movies this year when I noticed a revolution in the industry. I must say I wasn't disappointed. So here's my list of 10 Nollywood's best I watched this year; not necessarily released this year: 10. Sitanda Year of production: 2007 Production Platform: Amstel Malta Box Office Directed by: Izu Ojukwu shot on: 9. Mr and Mrs Year of production: 2012 Production Platform: Peculiar Communications Limited Directed by: Ikechukwu Onyeka Shot on: Canon 5D 8. Inale Year of production: 2010 Production Platform: BIK Entertainment Directed by: Jeta Amata Shot on: Celluloid (35mm) 7. Anchor baby www.nairaland.com/attachments/348658_Anchor_Baby_Poster_jpgef9f47091d253fe06dfb55504e6a9518 Year of production: 2010 Production Platform: Alpha Galore Films Directed by: Lonzo Nzekwe Shot on: RedOne 6. Maami Year of production: 2012 Production Platform: Mainframe Pictures Directed by: Tunde Kelani Shot on: RedOne / HD SLR 5.The mirror boy Year of production: 2011 Production Platform: Nollywood Factory / OH Films Directed by: Obi Emelonye Shot on: RedOne 4.Ije: The journey www.nairaland.com/attachments/220513_ije_JPG547034744692803870cb6676864834bf Year of production: 2010 Production Platform: Xandria Productions Directed by: Chineze Anyaene Shot on: Celluloid (35mm) 3.last flight to abuja Year of production: 2012 Production Platform: Nollywood Factory / Screen Nation / 3D Associates(UK) / 24-7 Technologies Directed by: Obi Emelonye Shot on: Arri Alexa 2. Figurine: Araromire Year of production: 2009 Production Platform: Golden Effects Pictures Directed by: Kunle Afolayan Shot on: Celluloid (35mm) 1. Phoneswap Year of production: 2012 Production Platform: Golden Effects Pictures Directed by: Kunle Afolayan Shot on: RedOne the criteria for my ranking include; *Quality of Production (picture & sound quality, colour correction & Grading, sound mixing, proper music Score, proper visual & Sound effects amongst others) *Story (Originality, deep story, proper plot, good directing, and jaw-dropping script etc) *'African' - I want to know I'm watching an african movie not a Hollywood wannabe. I don't want to see 'sme sme' acting like American movies; I want to see all the dramas and shouting that's peculiar to nigerians, I want to see good portrayal of our culture. I want to see juju stuffs, but it should be done with a good plot and not those types ( you know them...lol)-the difference between 'koto Aye' and 'legend of the seeker' na 'PALCKANGING' lol. I want to see more juju-like films like figurine not koto ayee. Other movies that I will like to watch: *Tango with me (directed by Mohammed Ali-Balogun) *Lions of 76 (directed by Izu Ojukwu) *Dr Bello (directed by Tony Abulu) *Awakening *Hoodrush etc note: if you've not watched any of the movies I listed, don't bother to come and comment the popular anthem 'Nollywood is trash'. Just move along. Thanks Another thing! If you want to Stårt watching Nollywood, remember not to buy alaba hustler productions, go to å cinema ======> Also check Top 10 Nollywood Movies of 2013 10 Likes |

anybody dat says Nolllywood storyline is bad should go and write his/her own story......let us see weda it'll be better dan all dis latern books. If u say d storyliine is bad,why did u choose letter-writing instead of story in WAEC english eassy? If u say d image quality is bad....abeg go buy 3D camera 4 dem. If u say deir acting is fake....u sabi act pass dem?. It just baffles me wen some idiats criticise Nollywood films...even wen d world recogonise dem...smh 1 Like |

Really?ok oh.I've watched figurine,inale nd mr&mrs.they were really a step up from the usual "nigerian film" kind. Buh for me,honestly, they were just there. watched them just once and I don't see me watching them again which is very unlike me. Also can't wait to see tango with me tho and phone swap. |

The last Nigerian movie I watched was Living in Bondage back when I was in pre-school. After that movie, watching Nigerian movies lost their appeal when I discovered the beauty of Hollywood Productions. IMO, Nollywood sucks. Virtually no graphic/virtual effects in their cheap productions. What the fans want is less talk and more action, not the other way round...just saying. 1 Like |
