    Awesome

    The first time I saw this movie I was blown away. I don't want to sound crazy but I try to study things of this world. I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen it, especially if they are truly into deities like I am. I hope to see a second installment with the same characters and a darker plot.

    Captivating

    Zainab was captivating in her role as Sylvia. It left me hoping for a sequel. Throughout the twist and turns of the movie I could not help but be glued to the tv. I found myself pulling for Sylvia. Her seductiveness and witty demeanor was only surpassed by her outstanding acting skills.

    An outstanding Nollywood movie

    This movie was simply outstanding. I was pleasantly surprised about all its aspects; although I would have preferred if they left the ending open, so it is not clear what choice the man would newly make. To anyone reading this review, do not let the ratings deter you from watching this excellent Nollywood movie!

    This was pretty good

    I enjoyed this film. What a unique plot line. I don't think I've ever come across such a plot in a book or a movie. It was interesting and the characters were quite likeable and charismatic. I was engulfed in the story from the beginning to the end.

    Love it...

    Nollywood producing good films, lovely, for lovers of alternative films, outside the Hollywood house, the technical quality is not the best, and the outcome is probably predictable and nothing very innovative, but the editing pleases, good performances, romanticized and dramatized satisfyingly, love it...
