Nollywood strikes gold...:)


Ok so i like naija movies..i mean they are funny...interesting though most of the time the storylines are predictable and its just nice to watch because it reminds you of home..recently i have been watching a lot of ghanain one's too but the acting in them is so bad sometimes and they like these royalty sturvs too much...although their actors are quite yummy (Majid Michel, Van vicker,John dumelo...) lol..i digress

anyways, i have been hearing about this movie Guilty pleasures so today i watched it on www.onlinenigeria.com and i have to say OH MY GAWD!!!...it was sooooo good..the movie was produced by Desmond Elliot( who is a great producer as well as actor) and Emem Isong who produced Reloaded ..if you have seen Reloaded...this movie is 200 times better...great storyline..no time wasting...great acting, the clothes were on point..even the normally annoying soundtrack was pretty good...its so good i am probably going to watch it again...Can you imagine??..rewatching a Naija film...lol

Anyhow this movie just reminds me why i love Ramsey Noah soo much...since the days of Fortunes and Megafortunes..this dude never ceases to disappoint me...i was getting scared that he was losing talent because i had seen him in a couple of lame movies but regardless he still shines through, even if there are thousand Van Vicker's (who cannot act by the way and now looks ridiculous with a shaved head?)...Ramsey's acting no get part 2 mehn!...love my boo.
And Nse Ikpe is definitely becoming my favorite nollywood actress...the babe is too talented..

I know my last post was pretty harsh on Naija and its just the reality of things but at least one thing Nigeria is making headway on is movies..we are the 3rd largest producer of movies in the world...thats a huge deal...i am even surprised we are not second...i doubt hollywood makes as many movies as we do..and our actors are doing big things, Oprah just featured Genevieve on one of her shows(even though she take style abuse naija as usual) its still something sha...and now Rita Dominic was offered 1 million dollars to become Africa's face of NOKIA...thats big things mehn.

Its time we appreciate and support our own movies mehn...some of these actors and producers are trying..

Anyways please go and watch Guilty Pleasures ,heres a link to part one http://premiumvideos.onlinenigeria.com/ad11.asp?blurb=4786, its soooo sooo good, movie of the year most def..
heres a link to the preview


P.S My gist on independence weekend is coming up...:)

Ok first of all that poster looks madddd! I haven't seen a Nigerian movie in a while. I just may check this out.

Hi Butterflies, Glad to see you enjoyed the movie but disappoited you had to watch it for free online. If we want to see our industry continue to grow and keep people like Ramsey, Nse, Emem, desmond etc in business we should go out and BUY Original copies of films instead of downloading them online! Just thought I should mention it.

Now that's interesting. I never watch a Nigerian movie until I've read or heard several reviews about it.

I could try this one.

Yeah, it would sure be nice if we could give back to these actors by buying original CDs.

Artsville said...

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease, lets all do the bit we can for Nollywood(for those who care about it)by buying the cds. Onliners and pirates are killing us. NFVCB is actualling working on shutting down the site. Glad you liked the movie.

The Girl with the Red Hair said...

@artsville: Why shut off the site.

If i love the movie, i sure would be interested in buying it.

Just like Jenifa, I bought after watching it at a friends.

Would surely go watch it.

I thought it was a nice movie but abeg Reloaded was much better. Plus I didn't like the way this one ended. In fact it was just okay o jare. Everyone seems to be raving about it though so I must be missing something.
