Isoken

Isoken is a great film showcasing the culture of the area of the country. The layout, filming, colors and dressing tell much of the tradition quite well. The film has quite a good inject of laughter and great acting (Isoken, her mother, black boyfriend). However, like most Nigerian films, it becomes too predictable and by halfway, you can guess the end. which is usually a Cinderella ending. the last 10 minutes do the most harm to the film: flying out the next day and the whole family rushing out to meet the new bf at a party ??. Not in nature of the culture around here.

The film is a worthy film of Nigeria and great to learn some of the culture. Especially about weddings and how they are planned. Great work. Expect a better 2nd part someday

I went into this thinking it wouldn't be that good but I was so engrossed, the whole movie was like a ball of sunshine, it makes you laugh and smile along with the characters!

Nice award movie and the actress are amazing lovely and very outstanding movi

Isoken is the perfect illustration of brilliant storytelling meets brilliant production.

That traditional wedding scene was a thrilling opening moment of the film. It was crowned with colorful aso ebi plus Flavour's song "Golibe" playing in the background😍😍 It set the tone for the remainder of the movie, we were just dazzled!

No stone was left unturned, everything was executed with meticulous details which is rare in Nollywood. From the work behind the scenes to the front of the scenes, the cast and crew gave 200%.

Dakore Akande (playing Isoken), who usually gives off inconsistent performances, gave her all; she was classy, funny, girly, down-to-earth, but also frustrated and unfulfilled as she wanted to break out of the traditional system.

The dialogues were very poignant addressing the burdensome state of our culture in terms of dating and marriage pressures. We finished Isoken being encouraged to stand for happiness against all odds.

We look forward to more films from Jade!!

I loved loved watching this movie with its excellent plot, screenplay directing and Dakore and the cast delivered so well on the acting. Our culture and heritage was fully represented.Oscar worthy if it was in indigenous category. Definitely a 10/10 for me
