Omo🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ which bank(s) have shown you shege this period🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ ? Tag them in the comments let us say a prayer for them.
I can’t be the only one suffering.
So I saw BATTLE ON BUKA STREET after a lot of convincing and I personally think there is so much to unpack from just one film hence, this is my Honest Review.
A THREAD……
CASTING/ PERFORMANCES:
I must say KUDOS!!! To the casting directors being particular about “who acted what” From Young Kanayo to Young Ezinne down to Ademide every single actor brought it 💯.
Actors that stood out for me and had me taking notes include:
OVERALL, this movie is worth the time and money. I was a bit worried when I saw it was 2hours plus long but it went by so fast and left me wanting more.
I’ll give the film a solid 9.5/10 it’s definitely a good no GREAT WATCH!❤️
…. Deserve an award the pacing was so apt and grading was impeccable. THEN, the sound score my Goodness it’s just the intentionality with which it was done for me. Every sound used conveyed the emotion it ought to provoke per time 👏👏.
The Yejide POV shot from behind her head when Awele found out she had been hiding her husband, the market fight scene, the shot of Lashile going to hug his children in the barn 🔥 I could go on but these were good.
The Editor and colorist of this film,…
PRODUCTION VALUE:
This movie is a proof that quality does exist in Nigeria( @funkeakindele thank you) the cinematography for this film is so tight , certain shots that left me in awe include the: Yejide on the mountain shots,
THEMES:
For this film, I especially love how it touched on so many themes/issues
Such as
LOVE, REVENGE,ABUSE,STIGMA,
FAMILY,FORGIVENESS,PAIN,INJUSTICE and yet managed to tie up nicely via impeccable writing by the writer(s) I was in awe.
.. a revelation @realmercyj you left no crumbs. WELLDONE. Yejide!!!! @funkeakindele regardless of all the hats you wore in this production your acting stayed fresh you made me despise yejide and later love her you literally took us on a journey. Brilliant!!!!
.. course in acting!!! Mercy Johnson please take your flowers 💐 The scene where Awele was telling Ezinne how much a scum her husband was to her and her kids had me in literal tears I have seen pacing in acting before but that of mercy Johnson is…..
His Pacing, Delivery of lines, believability 💯 🔥. I honestly think SOLA SOBOWALE is not hyped enough o! When Asake was convincing Yejide to go spiritual had me in chills “aunty sola Dey act abeg”!!!! 🤯🤯 That woman needs to be studied I mean an actual….
They came to “EAT” and they did.
That ifunaya girl is a star!! The last scene of the movie made be ask “who is this”? The scene where Ademide meets his father after the jail break moshood definitely said “let me school all of y’all” His expressions,
1) IFUNAYA ( I don’t know her real name)
2)YOUNG MADUKA
3)ADEMIDE (MOSHOOD FATTAH)
4)AWELE (MERCY JOHNSON OKOJIE)
5)ASAKE (SOLA SOBOWALE)
6)YEJIDE (FUNKE AKINDELE)
Listen, all these actors listed showed acting skills that are profound in this film.
Let it be said, that Before i Grace to the #BET Next Year, myself and my best boy!! @thecharlesborn did a thing with @Officialchike Tomorrow at Upbeat Centre!!!
Come Through Bestieesss💫💫
Get this!
Nobody hates SHEGGZ!
It’s what he did we do not like.
He was “booed” off stage.
That has never happened in BBN history.
Do y’all think people are stupid? Or blind?when people see and say the truth do not attack them in order to silence them. No!
The audacity y’all have to be dragging BamBam though🙄🙄. What? She can’t give opinions? She said what she said about your SHEGGZ and GROOVY nd whoever or whatever else Oya drink dettol nah.🙄🙄🚶🏽♂️
Call it what it was. ABUSE!!!! Dragging BamBam will change nothing. Did SHEGGZ abuse BELLA? YES! So much so Ebuka asked it it was her love language!!🤦🏾��️and ur “staning” bS doesn’t make Abuse okay. Get it!!!!!!
