King of Boys: The Return of the King

I admire Kemi Adetiba. I think she's fantastic and Sola Sobawale is an amazing actress.

But if I will be honest, I thought this series was a bit weak. The way the story was told or the path it followed was weak, perhaps because it was made into a series.

From the start, the story seemed to drag. There were things I expected to happen (can't quite place my finger on what...not a filmmaker) but it just felt like certain things were missing, some things dragged, some things maybe unnecessary (some of the lighting/effects in some scenes) and there were scenes where the actor seemed tired.

There were unfulfilled expectations, and it made me wonder what the issue was because I remember I really liked the initial King of Boys (2018).

This made me feel proud to be Nigerian. The acting, production and sheer expertise of this 7-part sequel left me giving a standing ovation. Nollywood really has come far. Storyline aside, the performances from each character were phenomenal and really captured my attention. I wish Oscars could be given for Eniola Salami actress and Toni Tones (young Eniola). I think I went through every emotion - I cried, I laughed, I gasped, I got goosebumps and I was in awe.

The storyline was brilliant and I didn't see IT coming!!!

My hat goes off to Kemi A for writing and directing this masterpiece. The fact that I could easily watch tbis again says a lot.

The cast selection was perfect, costumes on point and made a good villain 👏

In as much as the king boys gave us food for thought it could have been better, it left a lot to be desired as it was ridiculed with plot holes and under utilized characters.

A lot of characters had the potential to be so much more but rather they lacked depth and any real motive.

Too many needless scenes a better job could have been done with the editing but asides from this it also has its good side.

A beautiful cast some of which gave good accounts of themselves others which left a lot to be desired as they where sparingly used.

All in all king of boys is a good watch but that is all it is at best.

In terms of acting, this is one of the greatest movie I have watched. It took me back to the days of classical Nigerian movies were the acting was so pure and detailed. The storyline is immersive, and intriguing. Great movie.
