its a nigerian movie when
(1) someone will be shown 25 years after and he will be wearing the same clothes he wore earlier
(2) a car is about to have an accident when the steering wheel suddenly starts turning and the driver will eventually hit an "ewedu" stem and the driver will be seen with his head on the steering wheel with no damage to windscreen, nor any scratch on the car whatsoever.
(3) a car will hit someone at top speed and that person will still be lying on the bonnet of the car
(4) a gunshot will be directed at an oncoming vehicle,it will kill the driver with all glasses wound up and the glasses will not break.
(5) almost all endings will happen in church

Mmuo Okija: When at the end of the movie, a pastor and his team prays and the wiked/evil person manifests, confesses and then drops dead. . . To god be the glory.

This always happens when the director/producers have run out of ways to end the movie.

Wicked!!! grin grin grin

2) when a village igbo setting has all of the cast scantily dressed with ankara or animal skin, like NOBODY wears shirt & trouser in the village.

It is Nollywood when:
1.) You are privileged to learn new grammatical expressions from the sub-titling such as "she has been promiscuiting herself" (Yoruba movies specifically)
2.) To transit between scenes, you will see the picture of a busy Lagos expressway.
3.) A woman in labour does not have any respite between contractions; she is permanently in pains.
4.) A newborn baby can look like a 6-month old.
5.) Patience Ozokwor is a wicked woman who drinks beer directly from the bottle.
