Very funny people with their silly mistakes and errors grin. But







I will never stop watching. If not for anything but for the morals and good lessons. Hollywood don't teach us that.


Bollywood is still my best though kiss
Hollywood doesn't teach us good morals and lessons?...I guess you only watch low-budget hollywood action movies...
try watching WAR ROOM, FIRE PROOF, FOREST GUMP, ROCKY, ACRIMONY etc.
And your perception would change.
Stop watching season films, most of them are full of shit.

They write and act movie in a week, the one way weak me pass na when i watch Vuga ( Gentle Jack), dey act script stolen from "lion king", a cartoon script, my God i was like why are these developers not so creative as they claim. Las Las they don kill the industry finish, na our politics them wan join now.

I think I'll stick to hollywood movies, Nollywood is meant for people with very low IQs, their action scenes are shamefully mediocre.

Seeing one of the producers or camera men (I dunno which) through a glass window in the house eating eba hungrily and it just didn't occur to them that they should reshoot or edit that part did it for me.

Haven't seen any Nigerian movie aside king of boiz in over a decade.
I swear, I don even forget Nigerian artists, just recently, I came across adekola tijani (aka kamilu kompo), in ebute ikorodu here, I we talked for about 15 minutes before I finally realise he was the one I'm talking to. Although, the way he addresses me suggested he expects me to show him some accolade. But I don't even know that he was the one I was talking to. lol

As much as Hollywood movies have their flaws...

Do you notice that not one name of a movie was referenced.
Not one person wrote, in this movie titled, ..... In the scene... So so and so...

Nigerians are just full of crap.

What annoyed me most was a yoruba movie where a medical doctor advised a patient's relative to go and seek spiritual solution to a medical issue.


Relax bro... It does happen... I know medical doctors that are fetish while I know some who do pray with their patients in serious cases such as in surgery and problems that defy understanding.

The fact that we are in same professions with colleagues doesn't mean we're same in ideologies, thinking and experiences.

So, it's not every medical doctor that stubbornly sticks to science when perplexed over a medical case.

pls stop Condeming then joo, ofcos Hollywood also have many flaws, I was watching "strike back" few days ago, I had to stop at season 3,even when I had the rest of the season with me,
imagine a single soldier, going for several missions in various African countries, to spy, sneaking and beating heavy securities on ground.
What Hangers me most was, him shooting many shooters but the opponent bullet will never hit him, and his always hit the target.
Dropping his gun, just to fight another that is heavyly armed with bear hand combat.



We. All have flaws but that nollywood is worst though, especially their subtitles
Oga what you are saying is totally off point, different from what is being said here. Those scenes you are talking about are acted will near perfection but of course we know they are impossible but at least they make them look real.

You either drunk or just trying to hype this damn Nollywood
AGUBANZE:
In as much as we guys are criticizing, Nollywood it’s the second highest movie producers after Indias Bollywood . Couple with our epileptic electricity supply they built a million dollar industry from nothing but pure dedication and a lot of people are benefiting and are employed by this industry.

Don’t forget the highly acclaimed movies like Lionsheart and the likes of others .


They sure have their share of challenges but great success is achieved through practice and experiments . Nobody got it right overnight.


We should appreciate ours too.

You are just watching strike back season 3 by 2020...lol... Read about the preproduction of that movie and the real dangerous training the actors have to go through, especially the lead actors, just for them to fit into those roles... If you think what they did in those films impossible, read up some story about navy seal veterans and their nearly impossible missions...

Poor grammar usage.

Hardly scientific, hardly enlightening, hardly intriguing.

I understand ur logic, but try and understand what SBS guys do first. Those guys are elites, if not best special forces in the world. It's said a single cell (4 soldiers) of SBS is enough to wreck havoc in frontline. They don't shoot miss o...

I started appreciating nigerian movies the day i realised that most of the hollywood movies that eventually gets to Africa are the best of the best..
The day you meet a shitty hollywood movie, you will appreciate nollywood oh.eventhough, our best movies cannot be compared to their best, but our best movies are better than the average hollywood.

I stopped watching Nigerian film when
* I could hear the director's voice telling the actors what to do
* The camera was reflecting on the Jeep while the actor was speaking
* A poor girl in the village was sweeping the floor with long artificial finger nails
*The drive was turning the stirring wheel to the left but the footage showed right
