Hi ya'll, I'm a first time OP (whatever OP means) so please apologies on any typo error or whatever.

Though this post is coming. when the movie is already old but i just felt the need to create the thread afterall.

Ok enuff talk lemme get straight to it. I think the movie 30 days in Atlanta was unnecessarily hyped for the following reasons;

1. Ay was not fit for the role; Ay does not have that rugged n razz personality to play the role of Akpors. He seemed too serious for the role, more like forcing himself to be an Akpors personality. A Bovi or Charles Inojie interpretation of the role would have made more sense.

2. Story line was poor; Like seriously what was he trying to portray, that Akpors is just a local Warri boy who got lucky, went abroad and couldn't behave himself in a cultured way? Seriously?

3.His comedy line in the movie when he got employed as a part-time comedian was terrible; Ay like seriously u could have done berra than that. Dat was whack. If na so ur shows dey be u for no get one kobo for account.

Let me state that I'm not in any way hating on the successfull comedian's effort (before Nairalanders go start their own wahala), for what its worth it was a good movie but constructive criticism also sell movies.

For those who haven't seen the movie make sure u get a copy of it and let us know what u think. U can also add ur opinion for those that have already seen the movie.



[/s]all these points are totally irrelevant and senseless. The most important question is ,DID THE FILM RAKE IN MONEY AND PROFIT?if it did ,then no more long story .

So have been thinking maybe am only the one on this earth that lost sense of humor for the scene he was employed as a comedian and was just making trash joke. Well its a movie so it was already scripted for them to laugh, cause I can't be so stupid to open my mouth on that type of lame jokes.

Very few people can take criticism/reviews of their works in Nigeria because most of the time the fans or even the owner of the work label you a hater or make a reference to their bank account as if money should surpass quality or passion.

I didn't enjoy the movie but I will also rank it amongst most of the 2014 hollywood movies. 2014 movies must have brought tears to the gods of hollywoodian movies.
Movie makers know that they must create a fantastic trailer and especially if the movie is up for awards, hype (market) it beyond measure; same gimmick AY used, so don't blame him much.

There will always be haters shaaaa....I enjoyed, loved, gbaduned the movie...I can watch it a billion times n not get bored... there's a reason why that movie is top grossing. Say what you will, quote me all you want but the movie will still remain one of my favorites.
I agree with op on point no 3 tho...his stand up comedy scene in the movie didn't really cut it for me

Very true, @ op. I was comparing it to COMING TO AMERICA by EDDY MORPHY but was disappointed after watching it. Even Osuofia in london is better more interesting.
Please don't just compare osoufia in London to poo ay called movie..osoufia in London is a class on its own

AY lost his comedy and stopped being funny when he became more of a merchant and less of a comedian. He stopped speaking pidgin and is trying so hard to be like a Chris Tucker or some kinna African American comedian. I dont find a thing funny about him anymore, just see him as a hustling businessman. Bovi is the next big thing.
