My rating is:  8/10

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.

Performance of the Actors: I love Omotola and I think she can't do no wrong. She was absolutely gorgeous in the movie and played her part perfectly.  Mike is also good at playing the bad guy. So overall this is a descent movie with a good storyline and some hilarious moments.

He comes home with a would-be-wife whose persona is nothing to ride home about. She in question finds the heart of her wound-be-husband's father the king. Their romance creates anger and pain until the inevitable happens. who pulls the trigger and to whom is the trigger targeted.

My rating is: 70%

Should you watch it: For a good laugh and well rounded story. YES

Performance of the Actors: I think it was good, I wasn’t expecting too much from the servant roles yet it was well blended in to the story line. As for Mike you know I love ya! LOL the slapping scene was hilarious. And the shouting scene with the fiancé and the sister” Try me in this palace and I will send you back to your homeland by email” LMAO!!!!! Priceless. Patience is my girl you made me laugh and the scenes and the outfits were on point. Even though part 1 & 2 were too long for me in the end they caught up with part 3 & 4. Good Job!

My rating is: 5%

Should you watch it: If it’s only to see Mike, Nonso and Desmond in all their sexiness then you are good Otherwise don’t waste your time.

Performance of the Actors: Truthfully I don’t know if it was the acting, the script, the production, the direction or the entire concept of this movie but it was pure TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really did you really think this movie was going to fly? The initial concept was good. Three childhood friends meet up again in Nigeria and run a successful business to distinguish themselves. It looks like nothing could stop them then they meet a girl.... blah blah blah. Also going against this movie was the absolutely annoying acting of the Baron. Rally you watch too much BET if you think that is an ameriacan accent and that is the way that people speak! It was the most annoying this and I have to admit that I had to fast forward his parts. N Please do not watch this movie unless you are board or tired!

My rating is: 70%

Should you watch it:  Yes

Performance of the Actors: Again Mike was good. Ini was very understated in this film.. Not sure if that is a good thing. Patience ...WOW what else can I say. The most annoying part of this film was the fact that there was no follow up or mention of the daughter would have loved that. Also Patience daughter was annoying not sure why but a good slap would have been justified and the husband in this role kind of seemed a little like a sly person who is not to be rusted. This actor didn't come across like he could be the father. My baby John Dumelo. Love him but hated him in this movie this charter was not used appropriately in part 3&4. Over all a good movie with a good ending.

 My rating is: 75%

 Should you watch it: Yes

 Performance of the Actors:  Mike is one of my favorite actors in Nollywood. I really have to say that this role surprised me. I feel that in the past he has been type cast because he has the "angry" "spoiled brat" face that he usually does all the time. This film was different although slowing his speech may have on purpose to portray the character as a wise thoughtful man his expression and emotions in this film were on point. He was perfect for the role. As usual Patience was awesome. I love this woman in any role she plays. I think her acting brings out the best in the other actors making it for a good film. It's a good story line and could have been left there, but in true Nollywood fashion there is a part 3&4 under a different name. No spoilers this time around for sure worth your time and money.

When the son grows older and is allowed access to this money how does he handle this hot situation? Will he become successful or will he spill his Father’s Blood?


My rating is: 90%

Should you watch it: Yes good movie and a good lesson learned.

Performance of the Actors: Everyone was good in this movie a little slow in parts but really picks up in Part 2.I have to say as a screen play writer and director and actor and singer Tchidi Chikere seems to have the Midas touch. Again my girl Mercy was great but really they either need to stop feeding her greasy foods or having her use proactive while on the set. She has a good face but I'm tired of seeing her break out from the heat and sweat and so forth. My boy Mike was holding it down in part 2 , As I have said before you have to make sure that your facial expressions are different. The "mean" look is so 60 movies ago. Nothing but love for the mother of all nollywood mothers Ms Patience Ozokwo. Please if Nollywood had the Oscars she would be the al time winner lover her in almost any role she has done.

Without her sister knowing, Mildred pursued a relationship with Koby, while he was not aware that she was a twin to Melissa whom he was in love with. Will he find out who he is really dating?


My rating is:  75% only because the movie was way too long

Spoilers Alert : OMG is this movie started   so hot . We see Mercy  ( Melissa) and her twin sister ( Mildred) getting ready for work . One works at the bank and the other at the reception of a hotel .They both look fabulous as usual . The second scene we see   is Mercy coming  out to the pool and change into these 2 peices swimwear . Mercy might not be beautiful as these other Naija actresses but she looks hotttttttt. Anyways the sisters kept playing theses tricks on  Koby ( the boyfriend), I knew that this might end up bad . Because although  they might have  different characters both of them were attracted to Koby.
 Things that did not make sense
We ve seen these twins roles over and over in Naija movies and i got to say that some of them did better than this movie. How many times do you see grown twins having the same hairstyles.I can understand for the sake of movie they might make it the same but please. There is a scene in the movie where Mercy and Mike go to the pool and she was even then wearing her glasses. How come Melissa ( the good twin ) never calls when kobby is with Mildred (the bad twin ) .   How come the mother let one of the twins marry koby knowing that they both slept with him. Koby mysteriously  start falling in love with Melissa in part 3and 4. 
The Director needs to  hire a better make artist in his next movie because Mercy face was a big mess .This is 2010 come on the stars can afford better wigs.


Should you watch it: Yes


Performance of the Actors: Wow Mike and Mercy blew me away both of them really got into the role and made their love story believable.  It made think about the  the first time a girl fall in love and thinks that the world turns around Uhmmmm I am starting to like Mike  in  these love stories.

My rating is: 65 %

Should you watch it: yes , This movie is for sure an  eye opener about people that are meant to be your friends but are not . I really like the Character  of Mike, and the bad guy  in this movie.  There is a sequel on of this movie which will be  posted next . The first part of the movie is not as exciting it really start  to pick on the sequel Passionate Defense.

Performance of the Actors: Good
