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.

Should you watch it: very good movie

Performance of the Actors: A very nice movie with a message loved this one. All the acting was great the story was realistic and the movie was paced enough to keep me interested.

On top of that my guy Van I like the supporting role in this film you added enough to that character to make him slimy.

My rating is: 40%


Should you watch it: Ok I could say no it was way tooooooooo long for my taste but If you like these actors like I do you might want to give it a try.

Performance of the Actors: The acting was good again not the greatest but over all good. I liked the angle they took with this movie. But Nollywood really there was way too much story I kinda wasted my afternoon just to get to the end. It is possible that you could help me out and tell an exciting and concise story under 3 hrs?

Genre: Drama

Overall: She did everything for a man once which made her lose everything, Her Job her freedom, her dignity even her face. Now in the USA she gets a new face. Will she also get a new lease on life or is she destined for dead ends and deception for all time.

My rating is: 50% will hold my last review until I see the end of this movie.  This reating has now moved to 20%.

Should you watch it: If you like convoluted half movies then sure.

Performance of the Actors: Ok I’m hearing that there is a part 3 to this movie. Considering how it ended there better be. So the funniest parts in this movie are in part 2 of Rebound. Part one was ok but really part 1 7 2 are completely different movies. Now seriously after the face reconstruction couldn’t they give this girl some make up? The most horrid pimple scars on her face. Van has never looked hotter in a film, I really like the square glasses look. And the lacefronts ugh! It looks odd when the dudes are rubbing their hand through the girls hair and it only flows to the sides because they know that if they pull that lacefront too hard it’s coming right off.

 Ok Ok Part 3
All I'm going to say is the that I loved the last 7 mins of this film and that was partly because it was ending.

My rating is: 90%

Should you watch it: A good watch for sure.

Performance of the Actors: JJ does it again. And with a stellar cast. I especially loved it when the two girls were fighting in the entrance way of the house half way through the movie. Maybe because it is something I would have said. Good job everyone. For sure a keeper.

Shocked beyond comprehension, she is torn between divorcing him, and staying in the marriage...

My rating is: 80%

Should you watch it: I think it’s a good movie. But ensure you don’t take it to serious I found it to be more comical then drama.

Performance of the Actors: People will pan this movie but it was impossible to keep my serious hat on this movie especially seeing my eye candy cry. It was too much. I have to say that it did keep me entertained and maybe I’m just in a good mood tonight but I was glued to the movie if for nothing else but to see Omosexy and Van grace the screen. As for the subject matter way to many holes in it and I could tear it to shreds but why?

My rating is: 75%

Should you watch it: This movie was a good watch. I enjoyed myself. It was far from perfect but still good. I loved the way Bimbo played this one. The part of the spoiled brat had me laughing at the foolishness. And Van LOL can you have your PA wipe your ass as well? LOL it was too funny.

Performance of the Actors: I really liked the acting in this movie, It was too long as usual for me but otherwise good. The character development was smooth. You got to see various parts within them all seeking for love and understanding, forgiveness and healing. Usually when subjects of this nature are dealt with in Nollywood/Gollywood there is too much shouting and tears.( sorry Mercy you laid them on thick this time)

My rating is: 80%

Should you watch it: Good old fashioned love story

Performance of the Actors: I was surprised the actors played their parts very well. This movie was way to long for me 4 parts really wasn’t necessary. And part 1 and most of part 2 could have been done in a 20 minuet flash back. Now I do not advocate flash backs but for sure it would have been useful. It took me three days to watch this movie the first two parts were SOOOOOO boring until near the end of part 2 in which it actually picked up my interest. The script was well written even if not completely executed with the direction. Again here comes the half assed editors the slap that van received was held by the camera way too long that should have been a cut and next scene since the slap sounded very feminine anyways. Well so much for perfection.

My rating is: 20%

Should you watch it: Only if you have nothing else better to do

Performance of the Actors: Surprisingly I thought that with such a well rounded cast this movie would have been better. Nolywood you disappoint me. How many sucky movies do I have to watch in order to find a good one? UGH! Anyways the real culprit behind the massacre of such talent is really the writing and the producing of this movie. It should have been way better. It is obvious there will be a part 3 & poss

Stolen Will 1,2,3,4

Starring: Tonto Dike as Millicent , Jim Iyke as Victor, Ngozi Ezeonu as Sure , Van Vicker as Dan


Genre: Drama

Overall: What is in a surname? If you ask Dan and his mother everything! How much of our life will you trade in order to have a surname? If you ask Victor and his Father nothing! Life is what you make of it not what your last name is. Then tragedy strikes. It’s time for the mice to be separated from the men...Who will prevail?

My rating is: 95%

Should you watch it: Yes! Will keep you entertained.

“Dan is so loaded his nick name should be activity .com”.......really is this what our facebook, twitter, hi5, MSN messenger, ICQ generation has come too!!!! I weep for the future.

But that was the only bad line in the whole movie. I must admit the first 20 mins were a yawn but then it picked up and grew on me to the point that I couldn’t wait to see how it ended.

Performance of the Actors: I love Tonto in the good shy girl role cause she was super cute and had some of the best lines in the movie. Jim as the good guy was very good. Hi romantic lines were delivered with hot butter and Van... What can I say loved the bad boy. I like that these actors were allowed to showcase that fact that they are good outside of their “A” typical roles. Nollywood stop typecasting! And Madam Ezeonu love her, lover her, love her. Only the best.

Should you watch it: No! It started out good then disappointed me. A first for Tchidi Chikere. I love his stories and acting.

Performance of the Actors: Again Van gets my vote. This is some of the best tortured soul acting I have seen in a while. Very believable. I’ll give you one spoiler there is a sex scene near the end of part one. WACK!!!!!! I am not expecting nudity but it’s a just feet scene. If you turn off the volume and you didn’t know any better you would swear that van was tickling the actress.
