youknowitsnigerianwhen
actors names differ from flick to flick; e.g
ramsy noah
ramsey tokunbo noaha
ramsy tokumbo nowah
ramsi noaha
ramsey nouah
peter edochie
pete edochie
the worst is
zach orji
zachee orjee
zach orjee.
don't like nollywood films but there's no denying their nuisance/amusement value
before i forget; when the prince's crown is similar to a that of a court jester/clown/joker in a pack of cards.
when to be a prince means you have to wear weird looking costumes.

where all they serve in restaurants is fried rice and chicken. seriously have you seen eba in any nigerian movie when 90% of nigerians eat eba every day but in the movies its always fried rice and chicken and then ice cream and pop corn.

When there is at least one struggle scene with a man and woman and the lady shouts ewaaaaaayyy, kill me now, ehem kill me and the guy: But I loves you darlin please dont talk like dis and then she starts to cry REALLY Dramatically. Thats the pedigree right here.

Really?

Also when you dont have to see the movie cus the damn trailer or intro has just about told you everything. ie The Revenger, he was outcast by his village, suspected of having demonic powers, only to come back to plan his revenge on those who cast him out, see him take revenge, but pay for it with his life later. Watch.............The Revenger! Come on do I really need to?

Nayah: when the story is about LOVE...

this not only restricted to nollywood but bollywood and some hollywood movies

[color=#000099][/color] -The Movie is definitely Nigerian if in a given scene someone dashes in 2 d road without actually watching and all of a sudden there comes a vehicle on top speed waving side 2 side and then grounds 2 a halt just before d person its meant 2 hit. And yet u still see dat person falling in front of d vehicle with no bleeding or whatsoever n d nxt thing person lands in a hospital wit severe injuries or worst still he is confirmed dead at d spot. - its also Nigerian when d site of a completed building project strangely differs from d site dat had d building before it was completed. - when an actress wears same d young looks even after 10-15yrs without any slight alteration in looks, sometimes even d same hairdo is still spotted on after those years. - when d Spartacus Epic look-alike movies has d warriors brandishing unsharpened cutlasses as swords. - There are still more but these r d ones dat i remember 4 now....

Its a Nigerian Movie when you hear a fast and fearful sound to tell you something evil is to happen

When Mercy Johnson shows she is angry by walking faster than her step.

When Jym Iyke's American Accent is like murmuring

When kissing and lovemaking scenes make you want to puke.

when royalty custumes are so heavy, the actors can hardly walk from carrying so much weight.

When the poisoned food tastes very sweet!

when food is served and most of the time it is rice, big size chicken and juice
when a hospital scene is shown and you find a can of berverage (mostly Milo), a can of powdered milk and a packet of Stlouis sugar on display
when the actors shout while talking
when the domestic staff is always spoken to harshly and the gatemen run down from their very nearby post simply to open the gate for the employer or his family members to use
when university hostel rooms hardly have a bed - the matresses are always on the floor
when doctors attending to patients in hospitals are always spruced up in suits or at the minimum, long sleeved shirts and ties like bank staff
when love scenes at the beach are usaually about man chasing the woman all over the beach and finally the guy catches up with babe and they fall down together and the guy says i love you

And the friend who happened to be very jealous through diabolical means send omotola packing for years
And later Tom Umez's eyes suddenly opened and discovered that his wife was not sleeping at his bed
