King of Boys

Everything about the movie was well thought out, consisting of an Amazing cast who nailed their roles, an original story and top notch videography

The hype in Nigeria and in UK made me decide to watch the film. The story line, cinematography, colour , actors/ actresses were fabulous, but I was disappointed at the end because my expectations as well as 3 friends I watched with were not met considering the hype.

I'm glad the film raised the Nigerian film industry profile even further. That said , in my opinion the wailing in the film will not attract international audience . I as a Nigerian felt the scenes where people raised their voices were over the top, therefore not enjoyable for me .

Great movie, Few plot holes and all, but awesome Cinematography. (IMO: Terrible Sound Design), but awesome movie overall.

I had to open an account just to review this movie. The acting in this was of the hook. There is some serious talent shown. It was beautiful to look at too. I however was disappointed by the story line. By the end of the movie I didn't feel the title "King of boys" was justified. The running time was also too long. That said, I love the cast and cinematography...the costumes and music.....the blend of languages and realistic depiction of our country (Nigeria). This is a beautiful work of art.

I've had my reservations for Nollywood movies considering their long history of poor production. But this movie is a slow burner, that gets better as it progresses.

It draws the audience into the dark world of political power and the consequences of conquest-while spinning a vivid tale of an unlikely hero.

The lead actor's delivery was subliminal and this would've been a masterpiece if same could be said for the entire production. The gapping holes that persist in Nollywood movies remained as there were visible loopholes in scripting, acting, directing and cinematography, albeit at a minimal degree.

Nonetheless, this movie is head and shoulders above most productions and was quite entertaining to watch.
