okwabayi:Constructive criticism at its peak I hope lion Heart charts a new course in nollywood. In a country with poor global image, an image made worse by her president, this is the least nollywood can do. I tell people it's been a while since any movie marketed Nigeria( ivm, enugu, kano) the way lion heart did I still think you should complete your criticism, you never can tell, even Genevieve might be reading � 2 Likes |

Ekpekus: Oga calm down! That's why this movie is above all and not in the range and level of your regular nollywood movie... Just see as u take predict say dem for don beat Osuofia... just cos he entered that place... And u forgot that Osuofia is the Manager of Lionheart Owerri office? And you forget that most motor park managers are correct Agberos? Wey don see things for park wella and say that one na smalls for am... Again you forgot that Osuofia was actually following a girl down that part before he heard that conversation? Do you know that God can make you wander aimlessly just for you to meet your destiny helper? Bro just think! Think! And think!!! Everything that happens in this life is mostly unpredictable... Life is like "anything can happen"... It didn't work as u predicted that's the reason why it's a different breed of nollywood blockbuster movie... You can't predict nothing.. Some of you are also of the view that Osuofia should have been fighting to collect and snitch the company away from his brother and niece but yet again it didn't work as u people predicted and it can't just work as u think... That makes the film unique... If to say all these things happened now, na una for still talk say "from the start of the film to the end was predictable... it's a regular nollywood movie! bla bla bla!" and all that but here this one is different and absolutely different from the other nollywood movies... This movie is about family values and love, it showed it well... It's about bringing up and allowing the girl child showcase her potentials in the Igbo tribe and family (with a little bit of feminism) it showed it 100%... Bear in mind that most Igbo families can't and won't just give a business of such magnitude (even a small business as inheritance) to their daughter when they have a son. Even if the son is filled with "gross incompetence" So this movie is a wonderful movie and for the fact that Netflix bought it's worldwide right should tell you more that it's no child's play... And for those talking nonsense here and there, I ask them "wetin blind Netflix from buying other movies but when on to buy Lionheart and it's the first Nigerian/Nollywood Netflix Original... Forget about the people that will say Netflix is overrated, bla bla bla.. Really So Netflix suddenly became overrated cos it's #LionheartTheMovie by Genevieve Nnaji? Also forget the gist of say dem buy am cos say na Genevieve Nnaji... That's their business cos "When you are Big you are Big! People in high places go down and sort for you not the other way round because they know the stuff you are made of!" So, Mbok tell me more stories better than this one cos this particular one way I don hear so, is stale like staaaaaaaaale!!! 4 Likes |

femi4: 2/10 is a poor rating. Then what would you give to the typical Nollywood movies. I think the movie is a beginning in the right direction. Though I observed some obvious technical and acting mistakes. Story line was not some bad, delivery was not exception. Camera, sound and lightning was okay. There was absolutely no need to have Paul Okoye, a billionaire, naked lip syncing to his music and Genevieve doing same. I didn’t feel that part. Overall, the movie is better than most Nollywood movies and some Netflix movies I have seen. 1 Like |

Again, I believe that another reason why people day vex for the huge success in this film is cos Genny didn't do it the regular and popular way of (probably) merging or making it an Igbo and Yoruba cast film affair... Unlike it used or be... But she did the unthinkable by bringing in conc Igbo and Hausa actors to make it an Igbo/Hausa (cast) affair... I think that's another pain somehow... We all watched "The wedding party 1" where Mo Abudu cast actors that are not Igbo in a film that should be 100% Original to play Igbo roles... No doubt, that I love RMD and Ireti Doyle like kilode! They are excellent actors! But truth be told, they didn't really do well in showcasing the Igbo heritage in that film... It was annoying seeing that the Igbo cultural scenes in that movie.. If you must make something great go extra miles to make it great... Cast Igbo actors for Igbo roles cast Yourba actors for an omo Yourba roles, cast a zulu actor for a zulu role, Swahili for Swahili.. If you mustn't do it that way, then get an actor that will (not even can) but that WILL play the those cultural parts perfectly regardless of he or she coming from that tribe because that what the outside world wants to see in play! And that's what that particular tribe wants to see in play... Nobody would like his or her tribe or race or be messed up with in a film talk less of real life! Even the "supposed" Igbo greetings and the dance (into the wedding ground) was like a forced something... Not the Igbo way of doing it! Plane and simple! Thank Goodness they brought in Mama G in the Part 2... (Although I didn't see the part 2) While all these was happening in "The wedding party" and other movies like that, nobody complained o! But Now, Genevieve don carry Nollywood go back were it started from and shot like 95 to 98% of the film in Enugu while still changing the regular pattern by bringing in Hausa into the play... E don cos wahala! Very funny but really pathetic! That people are angry with Black Panter is not cos it's boring or something but because the actors there most of who are blacks, yes! But they know almost near nothing about Africa... My Real Africa! They know nothing about Africa with the exception of Lupita Youngo and maybe one or two! And again the stuffs (Science of Vibranum) that they were exhibiting in that black Panter was like a borrowed fiction from the whites... Hence the reason why I see black Panter as a way that blacks in the west wants to get back at whites but without knowing that whites will be like "what are they forming when what they are showing here in this film is like the regular blockbuster Hollywood (white) sci-fi or whatever)" Don't come here to tell me that the owners of the film (mavin) are whites! And this is similar to what Genny and even Kunle Afolayan were saying while they were being interviewed at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival, TIFF! They were telling Hollywood filmmakers to go down to the roots and pick the right people not some imported actors who don't even have the Naija pigeon accent and all that... So what I am saying is that, we should forget all these tribal infused criticism and commend what is great! Lionheart is worldwide and Lionheart is a standard that Nollywood should stand on from now henceforth for the world to really see Nollywood! And just like Tess Cagle said, Genevieve has shown that she is at the helm in the Nigerian (Nollywood) and even African Film industry! Argue with your keypad!!! #My2Cents Modified 2 Likes |

The film is overhyped I was not impressed at all...No suspense....No diversion. Too Direct. The video quality is superb though |

PenlsCaP: As in eh! The thing tire me o! it's too bad brother! All I can say is that it's either the people talking down on this movie (Lionheart) are either paid agents from rival and very jealous film makers, or they are blinded by tribal hatred... And I believe that a great percentage of them are one of these two or the two and many more combined! Sometimes, I just watch Hollywood action n sci-fi for watching sake just to kill boredom not that I believe all those unrealizable nonsense and nonsenses that are acting there... Person go jump down from 20 storey building and bounce on the ground, stand up kill like 10 people jump up even to a higher building and continue with the killing...
