Hello,
I have a confession to make: I don't watch Nigerian movies, and I hardly enjoy the ones I watch. I mean, I wish the stories were not so unrealistic!
Do you watch Nigerian movies? Do you think you can give me a good reason to fall in love with Nigerian movies Can you tell us which Nigerian movies you like best?
Seun.

I don't like nigeria movies, so i don't have a favorite. The ones i had watched so far seem too fake and story lines are very poor. Actually Nigeria movies don't appear to me like the international movies.

I aint down with home videos but that is not to say i haven't watched a couple of them. I just think they need a lot of editing and proper directing. You could almost always tell the end of the film from the onset, hardly do you get real suspense.
But then KEEPING FAITH is one film i can watch over and over again.

My problem with naija films is normally the story line. Editing is at time just horrible and don't even let me go on about continuity. That said, we noget choose. We must continue to encourage them abi how for do? Rome was not built in a day. I tend to prefer the ones done by mainframe productions. They are more sensible and realistic than most of the other ones.

i really insist on nigeria coming up with strong movie critics because most of the films being produced are always predictable, senseless and with no story line.
this is not to say there are no nice ones though, i think missing angel, usofia in london, games women play and keeping faith wont be a waste of time
i am beginning to wonder if i wont give up on our films again because as a colleague of mine says, nigerian films are mad. a bit of sense and real acts might perform some wonders. common, what happened to producers like amaka igwe, zeb ejiro e.t.c

mehn, I love Games Women Play 1 & 2....and much more( can't remember all of them)...I just enjoy watching naija movies because 1). I'm not at home right now so I try to keep up with what's going on over there... 2). most of them are just plain funny or fun to watch  even tho' most of their storylines are predictable I can't even imagine not watching naija movies |

The first set of Nigerian movies that came out back then in 95/96(Am I correct?) were really nice e.g. Tears for Love, True Confession, Onome, etc. But these days, they have flooded the market with s**t because every Tomi, Dike and Haruna is now in the movie industry. Nevertheless, I still watch those movies to have a feel of Naija.

think missing angel???  , usofia in london, games women play and keeping faith wont be a waste of time bootysue dear, well you just might love missing angel, but i think the film is quack, there are just too many unrealistic things in that movie - first and foremost Stella said "if @ 25 i am still like this, God take my life" what business has Desmond got with her again after she had started living big? the list of flaws goes on and on........ |

Yeah talking about the flaws..hairstyles tend to be the same several years later in the movie,..... a poor beggar once classy still has her expensive plastic nails on....years later too!
Can't say I really have any favourite Nigerian movie cause I hardly watch or buy them.

Nigerian movies are just a sham.
Imagine a film like 'True Love'. I guess it should be called Romeo and Juliet Nigerian style. Utter rubbish; I knew how the film would end immediately it started.
I want to watch a film, 'The Recriuts', featuring Colin Farrel and Al Pacino.

Dangerous twins is only film that has ever appealed to me, full of suspense, but couple of them in Yoruba films e.g O le ku, very old film, Ti Oluwa Nile. Esin Ajoji, Apoti Eri.

Well i don't really watch Nigerian movies my self but even if i get to watch one or two i prefer those ones in local setting those that talk more about culture and tradition .you know that those kind of movies do not need faking so the fakeness the is apparent in Nigerian movies those that the actors/actresses are trying to be oyinbo by force.
Those like the staff of Ozo,lost Kingdom and the likes portray some culture in Nigeria so Seun I'm sure you've never tried to like bring yourself to try and enjoy these movies that is why you don't enjoy them. you could be a critic and help these people improve instead of sitting on the edge and saying i don't like Nigeria movies i don't watch the American movies you enjoy did not become flawless over night people criticised them to be able to make them better and even then they are still being criticised.
Nigeria is our country let's take it and salvage it together.
Dorcas.

there are two movies that i watched and for once it's not about jazz etc are
Wheel of change and behind closed doors
actually before behind closed doors came out in nigeria, they did the previews here and people from other nationalities enjoyed it and it was sold out for 4 weeks straight at least in MD.
and as for wheel of change i'm organizing a huge program here in Dec. the national HIV day, and get people to talk about it. if you haven't seen it please do and any younger sibling, cousin, or friends.
