Blood Sisters

Watch without a condescending mindset. Good story , needs a bit of brushing up and character development as the show goes on. But you're in for a thrill with some few twist that leaves you in suspense.

It's refreshingly different from the normal Nollywood flick.

The unpredictability of the storyline, the engaging dialogues and the character interpretation of the cast was superb.

I enjoyed every bit.

Although it took a minute to sink into the story, eventually, it caught on.

The cinematography was well done. The scene introduction and sound too.

For a local movie it's use of mother toungue where suitable, is well blended for international audience.

Lastly, I so love the subtlety of stars given minor role,s like cameos. That was interesting, lol. Toyin, Bayo (Hustle), Mama Joke Silvia, etc. I loved the pleasant surprise of their appearance.

All I can is, it's a far far improvement from the norm. Simple as that. The bar is set, hope it's maintained.

This is a great series that tells the African story in the most detailed way with actors that brought their best.

The cinematography, costume, dialogue, plot and acting is a beauty that is best seen than talked about.

There is an upward movement in quality, delivery, style and class in the series and it is certainly going to be a benchmark for multiple film and TV productions that will occur in the Nigerian movie industry.

Highly recommended.

I think it was great that they made four episodes for the span of this show.

What I liked: I loved how I was tense at every given second of watching this show. The music added to the suspense so it definitely had that thriller feel to it.

I love the premise of the show and though I have never watched the originial blood sisters nollywood movie, I liked this one.

Overall, I am glad I gave it a try.

What could have been better: I personally do think that though it is obviously an African movie, it was a bit westernized. In terms of some of the 'American' accents that were used that I found unnecessary.

The cursing was unneeded because I have met people who curse a lot but don't just incorporate it that unnecessarily into their sentences.

The sec scenes were too much and unnecessary for me. At some point I got annoyed.

The acting was good but there were some moments were I thought it could have been a bit better.

There some plot holes and the ending does not give a clear explanation as to what the end result is what I found quite disappointing.

I do feel that if you watch this show and use your brain, there will be some question marks popping up every here and then. So it's best not too think too much.

But because of the solid suspense, good premise, reasonable-good acting, I ended up giving this show 6 because I had no difficulties watching it. I literally binge watched it in two days.

I am not really a Nigerian movie buff but Blood Sister has given hope that the Nigerian movie industry can excel internationally just like the Nigerian music is doing. Yes. I have issues with the casting. How can Kate Henshaw who looks younger than her age play a mother role and Gabriel Afolayan plays her son? Also, an assassin with a gun and dagger was ruthlessly beaten by a dude in agbada attire? Come on!! The biggest win is the directing and cinematography which are out of this world. I will give it a 7 which I considered generous.
