If you see any rating below 7, know that the person either doesn't recognise good movies or he or she is just hating.

The movie went beyond expectation really. The fight scenes, the special effects, the sound effect, everything was well thought out and the effort put in the movie was waaaaaaay worth it.

Nollywood standard has been raised by quite a distance by this movie. Femi Adebayo deserves his flowers. Even the whole cast itself was wonderful. Showcasing the yoruba culture while at the same time speaking about the current issues in the Country was well thought out.

Great movie and YOU should watch.

The movie was awesome, I loved all the cast and crew for a job well done. They all went extra length to shoot the movie. Right from The lead character, costume, Lightning, Videographer, music and location was giving. And I love the storyline that talks about betrayal and never lust of power and also the power of women. It has a lot of lesson to be learnt. Femi Adebayo did a good Job. We can't wait for part 2 because we know it's going to be a Banger. The Nollyhood industry should keep setting the pace high and return the glory of our movies to the world. We cant wait to see more of this in the cinema.

I'm pleasantly surprised by the this Epic action Yoruba movie. First time ever!! The musical chants comb with the instrumentals are top notch. The plot and the fights scenes are good as well as the cinematography. The only short comings I observed was the part the actor was left in the coffin in the river , the edited part was not quite accurate , other than this, it's a very well delivered job for me. I wondered why the rating on IMDB showed 3.9 stars. Common! This movie deserves much more than that ! The casts , the effect, the sound and the music are all top notch. For me , this is the first epic Yoruba movie that really got my attention.

Was pleasantly surprised by this movie.

The start-studded cast of veteran Nolly wood actors all gave amazing performances. No one dropped the ball or phoned it in.

There were no unnecessary, unfunny "comedic" scenes by flavour-of-the-month social media skit makers that cant act their way out of a wet paper bag, as is the irritating trend nowadays and I'm here for it.

The plot was interesting with a few genuinely surprising twists

The costumes, sets, props, music and VFX were all cohesive and on point, showcasing the Yoruba culture, especially the dialog (although a bit of the nuance and implied meanings of certain parts will be lost on non-native speakers)

The fight sequences were also very well done with believable feel and heft to it

All in all, an excellent movie.

The movie was a true spectacle, delivering a fantastic cinematic experience that resonated with its exceptional cast and enthralling visual effects. As I settled into the theater, the anticipation was palpable, and I must say, my expectations were met with flying colors. From the very beginning, the film's world-building and immersive storytelling style captivated my attention.

While my overall enjoyment was immense, I couldn't help but reflect on the dynamics of character development that we've witnessed in films like Anikulapo. The depth and richness brought to characters in that context really added layers to the narrative. It made me realize that even in a visually striking movie, a well-crafted character background can be the extra ingredient that elevates the story.

One aspect that particularly caught my attention was the protagonist's backstory. Though the movie gave us a glimpse into their life, it left me craving more. A deeper exploration of their journey, motivations, and perhaps the circumstances that granted them the unique ability to communicate with and command trees would have truly added an intriguing layer to the narrative. This kind of character insight can establish a stronger emotional connection between the audience and the story's unfolding events.

Despite this longing for a more profound character exposition, I still find myself engrossed in the film's visual marvels and the overall unfolding of the plot. The stunning visuals alone deserve commendation, and coupled with the commendable performances of the cast, the movie undoubtedly holds its own.

Taking everything into consideration, if I were to rate the movie, I would confidently give it a solid 7.5 out of 10. The film managed to hold my attention, provide a captivating experience, and ignite my curiosity, but it left room for that extra layer of depth that could have truly set it apart. Nonetheless, it's a cinematic journey I'm glad to have embarked upon, and I'm looking forward to more creations from this talented team.
