Ijakumo: The Born Again Stripper

Great movie 👍, I enjoyed every bit of it, and Asabi is so powerful and commands respect and I loved how she go hers. The characters are very good in their rolls, and I enjoyed them all, and especially Asabi, as she was so sexy with all her powers. I can't wait to see further endeavors in the future. I'm sure the next movie will be just as great. They seem to know just who to pick for cast. I'd like to see more of these characters maybe in a follow up and see what happened after the these events. I'd like to see more of Asabi as she's my favorite character, and that handsome preacher, and see what happened after. I look forward to more.

So much money spent on a story and it's execution just to openly bash the Christian faith and uplift the traditional idolatrous worship of the Ifa god. Christians are painted as gullible and clerics and music ministers are painted as deceivers and hypocrites.

I am Yoruba. The writers need to be properly educated as to what culture means in the 21st century. Culture covers food, clothing, architecture, entertainment, occupation, behavioral beliefs and attitude. Religious beliefs are now largely a personal thing and not necessarily a reflection of culture. YORUBAS ARE NOT IFA WORSHIPPERS as the movie supposes the worship of the idol Ifa is an element of culture that we are proud of.

First off, this movie was horri*ble to see. Too many storylines pieced up into one, leaving it difficult to understand. I doubt if anyone will rate this movie above a 3. The start of the movie showed it was going to be an African epic story about Asabi, also about her father and his traditional charms. Then, it could have also been a story about a church used for money laundering which could have been good, but it wasn't. They introduced a story about organ harvesting which could also have made so much sense, (why did that Igbo man go to Abeokuta ? Totally unrelated) . Then the confusing and unconvincing story about the stripper/chorister. There was just so much happening and the end, the fight scenes and display of extraterrestrial powers were so unimaginable. The scene with the hacker? Lmao. A supposed hacker for one with witch powers? Please. Sadly IMDb doesn't rate 0 because that is what it deserves.

A title like Ijakumo just sounds intimidating and powerful, makes you wanna expect something grand; however, it was a brilliant idea carerlessly executed.

DELICIOUS

-We loved the idea behind this film, a vengeful lover on the quest to destroy a fake pastor. Kunle Remi's shaved head and Toyin Abraham's long locks, hmmm. That was thrilling to see 😃

-Hats off to Lolade Okusanya (playing Sharon, the stripper) and Debbie Shokoya (playing young Asabi). They looked beautiful and were filled with passion. This movie audaciously exposed Sharon in all her stripper elements, while Debbie radiated courage and determination

-Kudos on the casting for picking the right actors to represent the young and older versions like Olumide Oworu & Kunle Remi, Tomiwa Tegbe & Eso Dike, and Debbie Shokoya & Toyin Abraham

BLAND

-The sound effects and score were not intimidating at all, they sounded funky rather than scary; we won't even mention the sound engineering which is always a giant to defeat in Nollywood

-The color grading should have been dark to install a terrifying element, but the images were rather super bright.

The art direction even produced bright costumes and set designs. The room where pastor Jide had meetings with his chiefs was filled with lots of candles which defeated the fear factor

-There was a lack of true purpose for the characters, they just seemed to be there without playing an important role, which resulted in weak acting.

Bimbo Akintola and her league of chiefs were supposed to be dreadful people but we just saw them meeting up and not doing much.

-Forget about the logic in this story: a hacker is able to extract login credentials just by knowing the name of a device??

-That advertisement moment when they talked about the cryptocurrency company and even went as far as to give us the website details and how to access it, we were shocked 🙁

Whoever is the writer of this movie should refund my money ASAP!! The movie is nothing to write home about and I keep watching hoping it will get interesting only got it to be more and more boring I think movies should be reviewed before been put on this platform.
