Anikulapo

This is a movie that is based on betrayal, has really deep interpretations. It tells how a kings youngest wife fell in love with Saro a bachelor and Saro was sent on exile and died, in order to revive him the kings youngest wife which he loved used mystical powers to bring him back to life and they decided to move to a far away village , where Saro ended up betraying her by been promiscuous just because the kings youngest wife gave him powers to revive dead people, he started reviving dead villagers and felt on top of the world because the queen couldn't bear a child, he started taking wives for himself . Saro ended up betraying her. No regrets watching this .

The movie storyline was good and the cinematography was cool I must say I enjoyed the movie.

From the beginning I was the edge of the till the finish. Bravo to the Nigerian movie industry they are really trying this time and threats every project as if it's the best to come.

Thank you for anukulapo!!

Anikulapo tells the story of a young man (Saro) who let the intoxication of power sway him away from reasoning and to his doom. After fate gave him a second chance at life,he ruins it by letting greed get the most of him.

Here are some of the lessons learned; 1. Imposter syndrome will lead to greed which will eventually lead to death.

2. Anybody that cheats with you will definitely cheat on you.

3. Hell hath no fury as a lady scorned.

4. Don't bite the fingers that fed you.

5. Karma is real. It might take time but it will surely come for a big hug.

6. Kunle Afolayan has earned his crown.

The production team achieved a fine work on set and it was beautiful to see a film told during pre-colonial times. Just wished the script was as robust as the production...

DELICIOUS

-What an outstanding display of life back in the day! We truly relished the antique setting, festival, dances, cooking, people walking barefoot, fabric making, clay molding, etc.

Hats off to the hair, make-up, and set design teams! The hard work paid off

-This was Kunle Remi's best performance so far. He genuinely impersonated the character Saro/Anikulapo by showing different facets: pain, pride, infatuation, and power.

The rest of the cast was sublime, especially Bimbo Ademoye annnnnnnd Sola Sobowale did NOT shout😄

-The title best suited Bimbo's role as she 'died and resurrected' to a brand new life embracing strength and seizing critical opportunities to change her destiny

BLAND

-The audio, the audio, sadly, sounded ADR-ish

-Anikulapo was a simple plot told in a simple way; there weren't any sizzling moments to glue us to our seats

We were more like spectators, not involved in the story but just observing Saro's journey. More gripping dialogues could have also made a difference.

Acting. Special effects. Set and Set design. Audio sync. Dialogue. Costume. Plot.

All these were at their worst. It was a nightmare to sit through. Two hours of cringe and traumatic visuals. A slap on the already disfigured face that is Nollywood. This film does not deserve a national award, much less an Oscar.

The acting was below even the mediocrity that Nollywood is known for. Nostalgia was the director's trump card and it did not work. Instead, it served the purpose of creating a reimagined retro representation of early Nollywood film styles.

A folktale told with clear camera lenses. Poor.
