I just did a Coming Soon post on this movie. Click to see it HERE, and there i state i was so excited to see this movie because it involves RAA and a story line i loved. The movie was fine but it fell below my expectations. This movie could have been much more. Half way towards the movie i was not as interested and i was in the beginning but i still watched it. Overall Not bad but it could been four stars.

Breaking it down!

Actors:

Uche Jombo:

Can my girl ever fail me? She delivers in every role, every emotion, any character she plays. I give her 4 of 5 stars.

Tonto Dikeh:

Okay, was it just me or did her acting seem forced. Seems very dramatic, very daytime TV like. It seems like she was slacking but i think it was an effort to play a dumb, over dramatic girlfriend gone wrong. BTW she looked GORGEOUS. I give her 3of 5 stars.

Uti Nwachukwu:

When he first appeared on my screen, my first taught someone get this man an acting coach. So dramatic, yelling, stretching words. I just kept rolling my eyes, it seems like he was just on cloud nine that he was acting. Cheesing and all. But fortunately as the movie went, his excitement died down a bit, and his acting quality improved. He still needs improvement 

Audio:

The audio kept fading in and out. But there were no issues with volume at all.

Visual:

Great Visual. RAA is great on visuals and i'm loving it.

Make-Up/Costume:

Tonto looked beautiful. Her hair was on point and her make-up really enhanced her beauty. I loved her outfits. Uche looked gorgeous too, and Uti looked like a gentleman. 

Romance:

Romance dey, but it wasn't the kind of romance htat your just stare at your screen because of its cuteness.

Drama: 

Oh yes there is. When the secret is found out, it creates the climax to the whole movie. I heard a lot of times that the movie was predictable but i didn't really think it was. Well not until i read it on another person's site, and i was kind of pissed that she gave it away. If you do not really think into it, it really is not that predictable until you start watching. Then as it kind of goes along, then you can 1 + 1 together.

Memorable Quotes:

"In the mighty name of Jesus, wherever they mention my name..holy ghost fire them."

*Stands in Uche's way* 

"I will beat you up and you will be sitting on the floor if you don't get out my way"

*Moves out of way fast."

Memorable Scenes:

Uti's nanny interviews had me laughing. It was a great scene.

Okay call me too observant but when Uche finds the picture in her book, and she kind of looks at it and changes her mind, well they zoom into the picture and we see her, the little boy, and Uti. Okay well towards the end of the movie, we see that same scene that was in the picture actually as a scene. Like they just gave her one picture from the set. lol Just saying oo

Would I recommend it?

Yes i would, It was a clean watch. It was a nice movie but i just feel it could have been taken to the next level..like something was missing.
