The way this film is everywhere is making me feel that if it's that good then they won't need to gather influencers to promote it. The promotion no be here 86 Likes 6 Shares |

I watched it last night and it is a 65% copy of the "Gangs of New York" with a mix of Lagos settings. The movie had good cinematography. 84 Likes 5 Shares |

The movie, as well with others like King Of Boys, follow in line in capturing the ugly nature of Lagos state politics and Nigeria at large. More movies like this will help people become more cognizant of what's going on in their community and nation, and proffer effective ways for change. As with Nollywood, some scenes were predictable, e.g when Gift shot Kazeem at the end. Nollywood like their counterpart, Hollywood, giving masculine role to the feminine always make movies less interesting. Watching Gift (Adesua Etomi) fight hardened and tough criminals made the movie had tinctures of caricature. Let men do their thing; ditto for women. Lessons learnt: 1. Crime is an unending loop once there are myriads of benefits attached. 2. Revenge is a cycle. Only pure justice can stop it. 3. Politicians are only loyal to their bellies and pockets. No matter how loyal you're to them, they'll use you as a pawn to leverage, either to gain more or escape danger. 4. True love never dies. It can be separated, but it keeps burning. 5. Don't taste crime. Once you do, you enter into an interminable tunnel of brief joy and long sorrows. 6. Don't be a pawn on the chessboard of politicians. Deal with them from afar and with wisdom. 7. Being a good parent matters a lot. You must re-evaluate all your plans once you become a parent. It's your duty to protect your community by raising good children. 8. No true friends in gangs of criminals. Two thieves are not best of friends but worst enemies. Their proclamation of love is mere pretence. 9. Deal with trouble at the root stage. Because it becomes impossible when it germinate and grow tall. 10. We must put the community above the self. Only then bribery and corruption can be curbed to the lowest. Gangs of Lagos is a good movie. Go watch it. Thanks. 350 Likes 12 Shares |

MISTAICEY02288:His performance was indeed top notch. it was an okay movie. I will rate it 5.5/10 for the effort but that's because I am comparing it to American blockbuster movies. For Nollywood league, It would get an 7.5- 8/10. 14 Likes 1 Share |

A lady fumed that she won't see it because of the role played by that fair female actress in the run down to the elections; Toke or Toyin, her name escapes me. She even had a lot of supporters and must have influenced some other who didn't think it that way to bin the thought of seeing it. I think that is quite extreme and I think if it had Anikulapo sex scenes we see online 😉, some people for no mind am. Thankfully, I absolutely don't watch Nigerian movies. But politics no reach where my playlist dey. Asake and co. dey make me feel like hustler of the year when I have them on😎 6 Likes |
