Bigchristo: The producers are getting it all wrong. That's the problem with black people; Copy cat but end up copying wrongly. We know the world has moved on from average visual effects, but why abandon the major ingredients of theaterics, which is screen play? That's same rubbish they did in "ijakumo the born again stripper" Producers should learn how to flow with lines and make lead characters reflect the content of the entire movie, reason I prefer old epic movies 1 Like |

DyshApp: Few people understand what movie is. It’s silly to say yoruba don’t have arenas. It’s infact the most stupid statement I have heard all my life. The Yorubas have always been a town centre civilisation. Our ancient cities have walls. We fight with guns and swords. We don’t always consult the gods before a fight because our fighters themselves are gods. Kings are supreme as portrayed in this movie and many times, warriors get so powerful that they can challenge authority. How is it possible, that a man who watched and love Spider-Man is condemning this movie. Poor critic. There need to be a minimum I.Q quotient for movie critics. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

MT:For the records. We still have my great grandfather's fighting sword and spear in our family house till date. They used guns, spears, arrows and swords/daggers for their warfare. And who says they don't fight to the death? Learn your history. When a certain Alaafin realized that Timi, governing Ede, and Gbonkaa, with him in Oyo are getting too powerful and popular, he ordered them to fight to the death in a public space. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Nauttyprof:lol. No about tribe oga. I no be igbo if you want to bring Yoruba sentiments. Forget sentiments focus on the correction. It's a good movie. But not a 10. Fast x is not up to 6/10. |

emmapetit1: See me o. People that watched flying dragons in game of thrones, that watched people with super powers in avengers, and praised these movies are now condemning a good movie like this. Most don't even know that our Yoruba ancient warriors fought with swords and arrows. They think it's all about guns and charms like our old movies were portraying. We still have the fighting tools of my great grandfather. A sword and a spear. Someone was talking about the fight to the death scene. I had to take him back through history. When the duo of Timi of Ede, a great archer in his time, and Gbonkaa Ebiri, a great swordsman, were becoming too powerful for the Alaafin, he ordered them to fight to the death at an open space in his presence. The didn't fight with charm. Both used what they were good at using. 3 Likes 1 Share |

MT: They didn't paint Ogundiji as a good person. This is one of the reasons I like following dialogues while watching a movie. You might just miss a minor detail and miss the whole essence of a character. Remember when all those Kings gathered together at Oga Bello's Palace discussing about Ogundiji's upcoming celebration. When Muyiwa Ademola mentioned how Ogundiji saved his life, Dele Odule jokingly told him that he was not entitled to the throne in the first place. Then Muyiwa said after all, none of them is entitled to the seat they are occupying. Ogundiji is a mercenary. He fights on the side of the highest bidder. All those kings are corrupt, they pay him to fight for them. If you know our history well, great warriors were like that in times past. Warfare is their business. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I honestly dont understand how someone will think this movie is wack in consideration of it being produced in Nollywood Yoruba genre. As far as i am concerned the movie beats anikulapi and eleshin oba. True, certain scenerios were predictable,at the same time the demon agemo wasnt that much of a predictable scenerio. Anikulapo only beats this movie in area of Graphics, Eleshin oba isnt even near in any dimension. 1 Like |

I finally watched the movie and loved it! Being a lover of traditional Yoruba movies, I was awed by the use of deep language and tradition. I love the storyline and plot twist.....I didnt see unveiling of Agemo coming |
Re: Jagun Jagun: Femi Adebayo's Movie Gets Tongues Wagging by NoToPile: 6:43am On Aug 15, 2023 |
So I watched it, very solid movie. Why people are comparing it to anikulapo it what I don't get. This one hmis a lot more like an action epic and anikulapo is not action, both are in a class of their own. It wasn't really predictable too. Nobody knew agemo was the daughter that was not his daughter, nobody new fathia balogun donated her womb. At least fighting blood and all these things looked real, Hakeen the special effects guy outdid himself on this movie, he tried Gan. And the use of the Language, oh my it was muaah, the proverbs and all, Yoruba students will appreciate it better. Only one flaw, some mud houses used Zinc though they were already brown and not the particular house used for any scene, but when doing an aeriel view of those villages it was a bit noticeable. One major lesson though Absolute power corrupts absolutely The bar is being raised high in epic movie production, I have watched about 4 good Yoruba epics. 2 Likes |

MT: Sometimes, accept you are wrong You posted on the front page that Yorubas don’t fight with swords which was not true. You don’t need to argue, just accept and move on, it’s no crime. And maybe you didn’t see them use charms or you don’t know that those red ropes were charms? If you know Yoruba very well, that red rope is a charm and they use that fight. And maybe you watched the back of your TV, you didn’t see Gbogunmi and Gbotija using incantations? You did not see one of the warriors using thunder and lightning to fight? Must you argue? |

MT: When someone talks too much, you begin to contradict yourself and type rubbish. It’s obvious it’s impossible to satisfy everybody. So if Ogundiji had been the good person, you will still complain the movie was predictable. Now the person you expected to be the hero of the movie became a villain, you are saying it didn’t add up. Bros, go and direct your own movie. Even games of thrones had good people becoming villain and bad people becoming heroes. You just want to complain and trying to sound like one intelligent critic. Lol |

MT: You are an ignorant person attempting to sound like an intelligent critic Maybe this is what you meant by Roman dressing. What he was wearing was a long agbada and leopard skin. I wonder when Romans wore agbada and ileke
