Should you watch it:  YES. I absolutely loved this movie.

You will be surprised  about what will really happen. I don't want to give any spoilers.

Deadly Affair 1,2 Ghanaian movie review

Starring:  Majid Michael, Jackie Appiah, Prince David Osei,

Genre: Drama , Romance, Suspense , Murder,

Overall: To the public they are the perfect couple but behind closed doors she was having illicit affair with Racheal, a photo grapher. Leo, her husband knew of their affair; he was silent about it but constantly gathered information on how to expose them. A perfect plan of revenge turned into an ugly encounter when Diana, Leo's wife found out her husband paid Racheal to kill her. A monster in disguised, so which of them can come out clean without pointing a finger. ( African movie place)
The first part of the movie  Diana is attacked by someone in her house while her husband is out at night having a drink with his friends. The second part explains how they came to the attack. Who was behind this plot ? you will be surprised.

 My rating is: 7/10

Should you watch it:  Yes, The second part of this movie is called Domestic Enemy. If you love a good movie with lies, murder, mystery you will love this movie although all the answers to the questions are not going to be answered in this one . I am actually going to watch the second part and review it.

Performance of the Actors: The actors plays their parts very well. Jackie always has some cute weaves on  and of course Majid is a cutie pie.  The movie is shot in a beautiful house and so far I really want to see the second part to see how this web of deceit unfolds.


Maybe my Ghanaian readers can answer this question why its always the same actors that play  the same role over and over again. There is only one mother in all the Ghanaian movies and y'all know who I am talking about.

My rating is: 87%

Should you watch it: YES it teaches a good damn lesson

Performance of the Actors: Ok of my best actors are in this movie and yet they were humble.  I love the acting of Chike’s mum.  All I can say is if that was my son that would be me. I loved it when Leo had an issue it really shows the ways of a man.  Remember some peoples trash are other peoples treasure turned trash LOL. Anyways without giving too much away please see this one it’s a good simple straight forward movie that will entertain you when you’re cooking something to eat.

My rating is: 80%



Should you watch it: Yes it was entertaining enough



Performance of the Actors: I love these three actors from various movies they always tend to impress me. But seriously who was the stylist on this shoot Yvonne baby doll that wig weave whatever that was shouldn’t have so many hair pins showing seriously?? Worst hair I have ever seen you in but kudos on the fab purple dress.  The soundtrack for sure a step up from the normal.

PD( Prince David) what doctor wears sun glasses while working in the hospital.  You couldn't operate on me that's for fing sure. Playboy in the operating room  nonsense!!!!

  

Watch the date scene glasses in the night as well this man must be blind as a bat.

It's so weird to see a ghollywood movie with a dude that has such an ego

look at the name of the wine at min 27  "obama" seriously Ghana is killin me

 After that the movie gets soft and predictable.  The most realist part of the movie was the part when anas is drunk I won’t spoil it but at least he spoke the truth that most men wouldn’t even utter.

My rating is: 7/10

Should you watch it: Yes. You have to be patient  with this movie because the first part is very boring and I was about to turn it off when things started to get heated. There are a lot of twists and turns that i was not expecting at all . I will not give you any spoilers so make sure you check it out. Donald parents are just typical African parents. They want to know everything about their kid's  marriage.

Performance of the Actors: The chemistry between Tonto and Van is just incredible even tough they  force things a bit at times. All the actors played their parts incredibly.

They did literally everything together from going to school, dating girls and so on until one day one of them realized that he need to make it on his own and leave his friend behind only to discover that he had cancer......

My rating is: 2/10

Should you watch it: Don't bother !! This movie has too many stories going on at the same time. I had a hard time figuring out  what story they were going to stick with. The love stories , the friendships, the sickness, or the bad behavior of Mike.  I know there are good friends out there but not this kind of puppy love.I could actually count how many times Nadia appeared in the movie so i don't know why she is on the cover of the movie.

Performance of the Actors: Very poor  and overacting.
