My wife and I watched the movie just once but our disappointment lasted for almost a week. We were waiting for the high point of the movie till it ended. We were really wondering what the hype was all about.
I turned to some of my friends to ask about the movie, just wanted to be sure that it wasn't me who had lost my sense of humour and they all opened up on how flat and 'over hyped' the movie was.
Infact someone suggested that those who paid the initial exhorbitant fees at the cinema should have started a riot there and then for a refund or atleast some change.
I just feel the AY guy just gave the movie the needed hype and by the time you realize it,it would be too late cos you would have parted with cash.
lolz....u are even funnier than Ay.....AY isn't that funny....the reason why I like him is that he never gives up,hardworking and has good packaging......no comedian in Nigeria has the kind of marketing strategy the guy has.....that's why I like him...

I don't really buy Nigeria movies, but I got interested in ay's film and October first after they raked in awards last year. Oct 1st was a high class movie but 30days is just there. Storyline isn't bad but I expected a suspense filled movie like Oct 1.

I paid so much to buy the movies. I would have waited for normal fees if I knew it was a normal movie. Please, how is half of a yellow sun cos that's my next and I don't want to pay much and get crap.

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.

That's true.. AY wasn't fit for that movie. Bovi would have done better... It was a good movie but not AY's

Just like Akpororo said during presidential gala night, if you didn't find the movie funny, then your problems must be bigger than his effort. There are some loopholes though, especially the Lekki garden scene where he was screaming 'Warri! Warri!...' Guys in Warri don't act that way. Abeg the guy tried, I even like the artists he used.

No one is saying he didn't try bro. It was overhyped. A couple of Kunle Afolayan's movies like Phone swap, October 31st would take it to the cleaners any day, anytime.

Ay shouldn't have played a major role in the movie.

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.

Exactly the same opinion ( and more) i had when i watched it. The 1st thing i said when i finished watching it was, thank God i didnt buy it.

The issue is, criticism is not welcomed in this part of the world. The majority of our society are so stereotyped in such a way that they see proffesors, superstars and anyone that appears on the podium as an alpha human who can never be wrong.

I have said it over and over again, AY is not a comedian. Is he really funny?

Yea, i commend his intelligence in assembling natural comedian
