New Hollywood Movie "SHELTER" A Wrong Impression About The Nigerian Accent by noavailablename(m): 2:33am On Nov 28, 2015
The American movie "SHELTER" starring Jennifer Connelly and Anthony Mackie, is all about the life of a Nigerian who travelled to America, he eventually overstayed his visa duration, life became tough for him as he is always on the run, did i forget to mention he met this white chick? oh yea! he met this white chick with a dark past and the rest is blah! blah! blah!. The point here is i was so disappointed when i heard the so called Nigerian speak, his so called Nigerian accent is so not Nigerian. I mean they should at least get accent right. these people assume that all africans sound the same? let me just say:
1. That stereotype about Africa is deeply rooted in them.
2. The director, producer or who ever made this movie has shown a sign of incompetence; yes! i mean how can he not know? how much does a nigerian visa cost, that's if he hasn't come across two or three Nigerians over there with our accent.

For those who would love to see the movie, you can watch the Official Trailer below
