    A hidden gem

    The humor frankly covered every frame, no stone was left unturned. Literally, we were almost on the verge of choking due to severe laughter🤣

    First of all, the art director was absolutely aware of the comic context: from Tega's office that had ridiculous signs pasted on the walls, Pirate's headquarters decorated with the most hilarious inscriptions to the 3 friends' amusing outfits😁

    The dialogues were out of this world. Udoka Oyeka maintained the entertainment from start to finish, the story took us on a wonderful ride with good morals on fatherhood, care for one another, dangers of greed, and the need for contentment.

    Koye, Shawn, and Frank excelled in their performance; so pure and effortless!

    A big shout out to the little girl Angel Unigwe, Bucci Franklin, and Eric Obinna

    Teeny weeny note on the not-so-good acting of Lucianne Akpabio and Shaffy Bello which slowed down the momentum. Plus, Pirate's fake machete was a bit disappointing.

    Other than that, Three Thieves was outstanding!!
