Chief Daddy 2: Going for Broke

I dragged myself to see Chief Daddy 2 and I must confess that's the worst way to start a new year. The movie is a total waste of time and if you're yet to see it, PLEASE DON'T. The industry needs to tender an apology to the viewers.

I literally came of night shifts and settled with this movie. If you've not seen chief daddy 2, I kindly ask, what are you waiting for? It's incredible!

It flagged off with Rahama Saadus entry which was a good continuum from the former. Her entry gave a plot to the movie, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", "If you really want something you'll find a way, If you don't, you'll find an excuse". In between these, were different shades of awesomeness, from the comical character of Famzy, to the love story between Dammy & Ada, to the embittered mum who was about to lose it all, to the sisters who had no clue how to survive, to the lawyer who got all too engrossed with the family, to the fancy locations used (big fans of travel can pick a place or 2), to the colorful African attires, and of course the new casts who understood the assignment. It was good to hear Samuel Perry's voice.

I'd say each cast had a role you could align with, some upscale from the former movie, some downscale, albeit too much for one movie. There was some discontinuity in some scenes and roles, by and large forgivable, especially with good cinematography and camera angles. All in all, there was effort, and it's a good movie for the holidays and the start of the year. The soundtrack brought back some good music!

I'll be recommending this to my colleagues and friends.

Omoooo.... The reviews helped me recovered from the sadness that enveloped me after watching the movie. I am somewhat glad that I was not the only one that was subjected to this torture of a movie. If I had not watched oth Ebony Life movies, I'd have conclude with others not to watch their movies again.

But in one word, this particular movie sucks. If you're reading this, I would really want you to go through what I did and would want you to watch it too. So many A-list stars with bad acting and stuffs.... Omooo, I don't know sha... A lot of people have put it better than I will. I won't say more than that.

To summarize the plot, it was leaking like a sieve.

The characters somehow became a lot more annoying and unrealistic, plus no tangible development. Was it funny? Maybe it could be if you don't spend the near 2hrs watching the movie wanting to punch the director/screenwriter.

Why do these caliber of films make it past the home video format and into the big screens (platform wise) in big 2022? The world is watching, and these people are doing Nollywood's reputation no good... look at Nigeria's music industry for a change!

A painstaking experience is the movie suggests that the entire cast and crew aim was to achieve the first disaster in 2022. A Netflix release date of 1st of January 2022 further suggests that was the sole intention. The acting was bad, the soundtrack were repetitive, the storyline was... (if there was one I would have described it here). The worst part, there could be a Chief Daddy 3.
