    Good Nollywood romantic comedy

    This movie is exactly cheesy enough to make you smile after a bad day. And that is precisely the job of a romantic comedy. The lead actress is lovely too. Always amazed by how much Nollywood has improved in the last 10 years. Can't wait to see the first nigerian movie to win an Oscar.

    Cute

    A cute romcom no doubt. Obviously low budget, the acting wasn't great from some of the cast, and I could have done without some of the scenes. However, the movie worked well with what it had and didn't try too hard. Great soundtrack.

    Refreshing, New, Love Story!!

    This is one of the best love. funny, well acted stories I have seen for a while! I love the beautiful black actors, and enjoyed that it is just as good as the typical "Hollywood" made movies!! Also, not a lot of sex, and language to make it good!! Its so nice to see fresh new faces in our culture, that are so talented! I will definitely be looking for these actors and other movies from Nigeria! Also I'll tell others to boost the ratings! Please keep making these movies!

    Great acting and love story

    Loved. Loved this film. It's so refreshing to see wonderful love stories coming out of Africa. I am now searching for these actors in other movies.

    Absolute rubbish

    I'm always on the hunt for a good Rom Com to watch with my wife. This had a review score over 6, so we gave it a crack. We literally stopped watching it after 10 minutes. Rubbish acting, like cringe worthy acting. I don't know who reviewed this with high scores in the past, but it's not worth the watch. The acting was just "that bad". Plus the story, as far as we watched was just terrible, b-grade stuff.
