Mikolo

Congratulations to Niyi and his team for indeed 'believing the impossible' by making Nollywood's first animated feature film👏

Mikolo was a blast, we were transported into a fun and adventurous universe

DELICIOUS

-That opening scene was catchy. Right away, we were taken into Irumole forest where we saw the mysterious creatures chasing a man, loved Babablu's rocky voiceover which enhanced the storytelling, and Habeeb's periodic interruptions😆

-Casting was perfect! Pamilerin Ayodeji really looked like Mofiyinfoluwa Asenuga. Yvonne Jegede looked like Pamilerin and Ayo Mogaji

Everyone delivered a convincing performance. We were blown away by the siblings' chemistry.

-No criticism of the animation: characters were adequately designed, the visuals were enchanting and fueled our interest. The dynamic movements of the creatures were engaging😃

-The costume, make-up, and set designers have to be applauded! What a refined work executed

-The film elevated the Nigerian culture and reinforced civic manners in children. The location choice being in Funke's grandma's village encouraged families to go back to their roots and discover its beauty

-It was so great that Mikolo was given a personality of its own; it was friendly, always hungry, liked to dance, and very spontaneous. Mikolo meaning 'social person, great companion' was also a message for all of us

-The overall message called us to live bravely, be adventurous, explore life. In this day and age, we're so restricted to our jobs and homes that we fail to enjoy the wealth that nature has to offer. Just live out loud!

BLAND

-Teeny weeny negative has to be the dark and plain cinematography as well as the dark color grading which didn't accentuate the fun and bubbly vibe of Mikolo.

Overall, job well done!!!
