Senseless movie.

Chief daddy is a kinda movie that can end someone's acting career.....I wonder why Nkem Owoh and Patience Ozokwor would take part in that mediocre movie.

Please tell us the name of the movie you produced , let us watch .... This movie was recently released and you taught it wise to give such a negative critism to the movie.. At least allow the movie to make small sell before dropping your opinion


Oga please stop promoting mediocrity. The reason you trip for Hollywood movies is because of their unrelenting critics. If you read the criticism of some Hollywood movies that made hundreds of millions you go fear. Try to check the Wikipedia site of your best movies or better still look out for Screen Rant Pitch Meeting on YouTube.

Thank you, I once watched a review of Wonder Woman 1987.

If you see how they used sarcasm to finish that movie and its inconsistencies, if you had not watched it prior to watching that review, you will not watch the movie, because it will just look useless to you.

Movie critics in the US are so ruthless, unlike Nigeria, where if you just poke at them small, one filmmaker will come and start accusing you of not supporting the industry, or telling you to try making your own movie.

So, because I never do film, I no go know as film suppose be? If I have never cooked a meal in my life, will I not know what good food tastes like still?

Safarigirl you try sef.


I'm slashing that 4.5 into halves. sad



I also think it may be more on directors cutting of writers delight thus this drab commercial.


Ebony Life need to watch its back. Its becoming the SI unit for Nollywood Mediocre Storylines.

Perhaps they console themselves with "it doesn't matter"

But it does really matter.

No, they are creating rooms for diversity, straight people are not the only ones who exist and you've been receiving visibility since inception of time and queer people didn't bat an eyelid, any queer representation, y'all get your wings in a bunch

Haven't sat to fully watch a Nigerian Movie in almost a decade, saw this star-studded movie on netflix and decided to give it a try - absolutely disappointed in Mo Abudu; Couldn't spend 10mins on the rubbish. Patience Ozokwo, Nkem Owoh, Joke Silva, Kate Henshaw, Falz, Dakore Akande, Funke Akindele, Broad Shaggy etc. just came together to tarnish their classic acting careers. How do you even bring so many A-list actors into same movie? running around doing nothing, making a spectacle and grande charade of themselves. I'm so disappointed.
This is below mediocrity, its a sham with 1/10 rating.
Please how can one delete a movie in Netflix?

They were only trying to show off. It's peculiar with Mo Abudu's movies. A friend succeeded in making me watch wedding party part 1...just wasted almost 2 hours of my life. Well, I haven't seen any other nollywood movies, no matter the hype, I ain't falling.
Even some Hollywood movies, are becoming crap these days. I'm back to watching movies made in the 1960's,70's.


I support you fully on this.

The Hollywood is bending that way too. The hype around Suicide Squad is similar to this Chief Daddy. It was wack. The Asians seems to have taken over with better storylines almost.


Else, the old movies seem to be much more organized, fill in loops, intense, yet still hyped and fun.

Its that bad people are clamoring for Aki and Pawpaw movies.

If the hands of Nigerians living in Nigeria was in that movie it will never make sense

Anything Gina Yashere is involved,it seems she dedicates her soul to infuse accurately the nigerianness in the storyline, even better than nigerian filmmakers. I cut cap for her on Bob Hearts Abishola. Fans so loved Godwin and Kofo they weren't happy they missed the wedding.


Chuck Lorre dey too so any idea or suggestions gats be though through or it gets binned.


I can't wait for Folake to appear in an actual Nollywood franchise soon.

Also can't wait for TMC continuity.

Na the hype sell that movie

I have seen better storyline and scriptwriting in YouTube productions, but those ones do not have a big platform and are constantly overlooked

If Netflix is truly interested in investing in Nollywood, I would suggest they partner with YouTube creators. Web series like Little Black Book, This is It and The Men's Club are brilliant, they deserve a large audience too.

Enough of sacrificing quality for mediocrity. The Nollywood representation on Netflix is so disappointing, and I take it this personal because I love Nollywood so much.


The popular Nigerian lexicon 'money miss road' comes to mind. The real deal gets overlooked, the sh*t goes on showcase(display)

They can shoot 10 movies in 1 month, as long as the movie is interesting and it almost always was.

Funny enough, Tyler Perry is also accused of shooting movies within a month, yet, Tyler Perry produces some of the most thought-provoking and controversial movies in Hollywood, as low budget as they are.

Any movie that cannot spark your emotions, is almost useless....and Tyler Perry has mastered the art of pulling at heart strings.

I don't care how much time movie production takes, I care about storyline and dialogue especially, I care about the execution. A movie with a good storyline and dialogue, even if na Nokia Express Camera dem use shoot am, I fit watch am. But if you use the best camera to shoot a movie and the storyline and dialogue is bland, I'll hate it.

You have a point

In the spirit of New Year Celebrations, Netflix was thoughtful enough to kick off 2022 with a second part to the highly grossing movie, Chief Daddy 2.

This movie is basically a continuation of Chief Daddy, a movie about a rather large family dealing with their internal conflicts at the death of the family's Patriarch, a man fondly called 'Chief Daddy'

Now, at the end of Part 1, there is an introduction of a new character. This character, who, we learn is named Laila at the beginning of Part 2, is played by Rahama Sadau.

Contrary to our collective expectations though, the inclusion of this new character, does not add any sort of depth to the storyline in the part 2.

Now, if you recall, the first part of Chief Daddy, comes to an end with the declaration that contrary to the expectations of the rather greedy members of the Beecroft family, they will not receive their shares of Chief Daddy's property just because they made nice with each other. In fact, there doesn't seem to be shares to be redeemed, something about an IPO and a Company takeover, I won't bore you with the technicalities.

Anyway, the second part begins with Laila, another estranged child of the dedicated philanderer, Chief Daddy, informing the rest of his family, that she will be taking charge of the company, as the rest of them are simply not competent enough.

Where did Laila appear from? We don't know. How did we get to this scene? We're still not sure....however, we at least know, that Laila's mother is named Maryamu, and she does not hold the status of 'legally married wife to the Chief'. That is all the information we need.

Laila is presented to us as something of the antagonist in this movie, so, ideally, the storyline should focus on her constantly sabotaging the rest of the family and the rest of them trying to overcome her as a team, right?

Wrong. See, for the 1h 35minutes duration of the movie, we only see Laila tap into her antagonist nature a couple of times, and the moments are so fleeting, so sudden even, it neither brings with it any shock or suspense value. It's just a scene.

As we are introduced to Laila, we are also introduced to a character we assume is her right-hand man at first, Prince Sonny (Uzor Arukwe). I am happy to let you all know that we do not see him betray her trust, we do not see him take advantage of his relationship with sisters Tinu and Teni, who are smitten by him, to supply her any shady information about the Beecroft family. In fact, he might have as well not been introduced alongside her, because there is barely any interaction between them after the first scene.

But far be it that Prince Sonny is the most unnecessary character in this movie, because we are still being haunted by Joro (Nedu Wazobia) and Chuchu (Chigurl), the clueless Event Planners from Chief Daddy 1.

I can go on all day, but let me state my main issues with this movie, beyond what has been mentioned already:


1. One of my main grouse with the Part 1 of Chief Daddy was a lack of story development, especially as regards the romance of Dammy and Adaora, the Part 2 only got worse on that front. Very poor story development. I compared it to a work done by 10 different writers, none of whom consulted each other. They just brought together their individual pieces and made a movie that simply didn't flow.

2. I would like to thank Dubai and the UAE for always coming through for Nollywood whenever they want to give us a little razzle dazzle so we barely notice a poor plotline, but it simply did not work this time. Dubai was unnecessary, but let us excuse it, based on possible MoUs signed. It was, however, not the only unnecessary part in this movie.


3. This one is special, because it is the second time EbonyLife has done this thing and we must call it out. WHY MUST YOU CARRY OVER A DISPENSABLE CHARACTER FROM PART 1 TO PART 2 OF A MOVIE?
Recall that in The Wedding Party 2, we had to deal with Saka's character once again at the airport, trying to board a flight he did not book, for a wedding he was not invited to, as if trying to stir up memories of when he crashed the wedding in Part 1. We also had to witness the MC from Wedding Party 1, played by AY, engage in a tussle for MC Supremacy in The Wedding Party 2, even though the second wedding was all the way in Dubai.
Now, in Chief Daddy 2, Joro and Chuchu, both of who planned the memorial party in Chief Daddy 1, have returned as Planners for the wedding of a supposedly rich and affluent superstar footballer, Dammy Baggio (Mawuli Gavor). Why? How? If he is as wealthy as his character is portrayed to be, how realistic is it, that he would put his wedding planning in the hands of these Bend-down-select event planners?
Were they necessary? No. Did they need to be carried over? No. Did they add to story development? No. Did they add to comic value? Not at all. Yet, here we are.

On a positive note, the setting was nice, from Lagos to London and Dubai, lighting was great, sound was awesome, music score was decent. There was heavy usage of Falz The Bahd Guy's tracks; they may have killed two birds with a stone by using a lead actor's music, possibly to sort some copyright issues. Very smart move in production. The general acting was decent. The script was as underwhelming as the plotline. No quotable quotes, no witty words. It gave nothing.


To be honest, if you haven't watched Part 1, good for you. Don't bother. If you have, and you wish to watch Part 2 either for curiosity or to fulfill all righteousness, make sure you use Free wifi, or someone else's data. It will hurt less.

Overall Rating: 4.5/10.

Please, if you've seen the movie. What are your thoughts and ratings?

And the fact to me is that they copied this movie from 2013...House Of Gold....where we had Omawunmi, Mercy Chinwo, Majid Michael, Yvonne Nelson, Ice Prince etc. Chief Daddy part 1 is a total Copyright of that movie and that was why I disliked it a lot.
OMG, I shared this same statement with someone when I saw the movie and it feels so good that someone out there think the same.
